All i want to do is set up a basic 2-4 player online multiplay game between myself and a few others, which can be locked with a password.

Simple really but everything i have tried doesnt work.

I tried creating a dedicated server but that kicks me out and doesnt allow me to play.

I tried creating a listen server and I got in fine, trouble is, i don't know how to get the other guys in the game.

Please help me.

let them join by your ip if thats all you want too do
pull down the consloe and type
\connect xxxxxxxx ip no here
hit enter and play away

just make server --not dedicated--- through the game options and password it you be good too go

sorry, i'm really crap at this.

A.) If i'm inside the listen server game, how do i bring the console up?

B.) In the console am i connecting their IP's or do they have to connect to mine, and how?

use the ~ tild key left side of keyboard right above the tab key

they will need too bring down there console and type "your ip" too connect too your server

\connect your ip then hit enter


\ that is betwreen the enter and backspace key
