Maybe try Master/Slave mode? I don't know, switching between modes seems to solve it every now and then. Assigning a different UDP number to one of the players will work sometimes too, something like 23514.

I'm using Windows XP SP 3. We tried it more than once, the new player ID isn't generating properly.

IIRC I can remember someone saying that the ID was generated from the users time and date in Windows or something.

Try forcefully changing it to something else and see if that does anything.

^ That's not Duke???

Anyways, I've had the same issue here, time reset didn't fix it, running master slave mode worked.

Okay, well, Master Slave mode works fine, it's just that I go out of sync within a matter of minutes. So Master Slave is a no-go.
I had my friend change his UDP, and now I get a different error.

Not yet, but it's on my to-do list. Although now I see I have an entirely different error to contend with.

Still open for ideas, people.

Okay, tried what Angry Kiwi suggested, no dice. There's a new problem now, I see what it is.

My friend forwarded port 23513 on UDP. However, when I look at the log, it's telling me that port 50891 is forwarded instead. Now what? Mine is accurate.

Do you guys both have the appropriate TCP and UDP ports forwarded through your routers? (Usually 8501 and 23513, respectively)

Yes we did, although my friend had to pick a different UDP to stave off the first error. TCP remained the same.

Is Windows Firewall on? Turn it off on both computers if it is, or at least make an exception to both Duke Matcher and EDuke32-OldMP.

Is that modified UDP number that was used to fix the error forwarded as well?

Maybe you could try using a different client, like Yang?

If all else fails, perhaps you could try using a different source port? JFDuke3D, Duke3dw, or even XDuke and HDuke*?

Yeah. This version was tested, as far as I know, and since Vinny and I were basically the ones breaking the back of this thing when we used it for the series, our setup was YANG, this version of Duke, ports open, firewalls off. Never had a problem. Well, not true, occasionally after eight hours of play, it would crash. Posted Image

Hahaha, I remember seeing that. He genuinely believes in his actions and that he is doing nothing wrong. He's received so much rebuke, I don't understand how he keeps going. You don't even have to talk to him to know he's a prick, all you have to do is look at the stuff he writes.

Yes, the modified UDP was also forwarded. I see that my firewall port forwarding for Dukematcher on the TCP, was a UDP by accident. I'll scrutinize the ports a bit further, and try turning off the firewall if all else fails. I don't quite see how getting a different launcher client will help the problem though. Seems to be more of a problem with OldMP EDuke32.

Okay, tried yang. It still didn't work. Although this time, instead of throwing out an error that actually means something, I just got thrown into a Retrying loop instead.

All ports are forwarded properly, i'm SURE of it. We even tried turning our firewalls off. No dice.

Okay, just saw the log file of my friend i'm trying to play with. Again with the "Disallowed player at [IP ADDRESS: Totally incorrect port]?!" error. Only this time, it's thinking the host is disallowed, not the person trying to join.

I'm confused, why not just play multi-player with Steam Duke Megaton until E-Duke is actually ready to support Multi-player?

1. I'm getting a "When it's Done" vibe at best from future EDuke32 builds, at best, and an "EDuke32 Forever" vibe at worst. I have to assume it's a few more years down the line.

2. For me, Megaton's net code is a laggy ball of annoyance. In the few moments I could get EDuke32 OldMP to work on Master/Slave, it was smooth as butter. It hurts a bit, playing on Megaton's multiplayer. The 2-5 second delay between button presses and actions. EDuke32 OldMp's netcode was much better for me. I want to see if that can be made to work instead.

3. I want to use mods, eventually. For now, it's vanilla. Trial runs in vanilla, then add mods. The trial run isn't even getting off the ground.

At this point, i'm seriously starting to wonder if something is wrong with the OldMp build itself.

Depending on your Internet Service Provider, if it is a wireless service provider, they may disable the ability to forward UDP packets. Perhaps this could be a problem you are experiencing. If it was me i'd first try to establish a network game between two computers on the same network segment first. I've also come across some routers which don't properly handle UDP traffic as in forward it properly. Older firmware builds from Fortinet were this way. You are dealing with a lot of variables out of the gate. Keep the setup simple then expand on it once it works.

I'm stuck with a wired internet connection from Brighthouse Communications, and i'm using a Netgear router, relatively recent stuff. I do believe that my friend's router is a AT&T router, for what that's worth. Me and my friend are both on different connections. The IPs are different, if that's what you're asking.

I'll toy around a bit more and see what I can come up with.

Broken, to sum it up in one word. I tried to make a server with the newest build of EDuke32, I ended up gibbing into the floor on spawn, while still retaining mouse controls as if I was still alive, and full heath.

What I am suggesting is test out Eduke Multi player over the LAN using the old version of Eduke. (Have two computers connected to each other in the same room). Test it. Then worry about remote connections.

What i've come to realize with Eduke by being a member on this forum for a while is not to rely or expect Multiplayer functionality. That is not developers primary focus however I believe someone is actually optimizing the net code periodically or contributing in the background. Eduke Developers don''t exclusively devote their lives to this game. They currently work on this game as a side project for fun at their own leisure because they are incredibly smart people. But they have their own lives to contend with and we must respect that. When they are ready I'm sure they will sound the trumpets.

The Developers are well aware that the current version doesn't support Multi-player and they have been very patient and public about it. So if you feel you are not getting the attention from someone in the know it's because we've already all been told many times to wait until that portion of Eduke is finished and that it is not priority number 1. So the Dev's can't be bothered telling a million people the same thing over and over again it gets tiring.
