stupid LAN question

Post by Joes2Silly »

I just wanted to make sure of one thing before I try to host a LAN game. Do I need to have the certain LAN Game running on all of the computers used? And like also have the game running symotaniosly on all computers right? Would it be possible to use a No-CD fixed exe :?:

No-CD fixes are the way to go, and yes, you need all the computers hooked up together running the same game simultaneously to play together. From there it usually works out smooth like online play.
