Cannot connect to game server - Trinity patch Version 1.21

Hi,

Me and my buddy are trying to set up a LAN game, but we keep on getting the dreaded 'Cannot connect to game server' error.

I'm behind a router, he's not. We're both running Windows 7 x64, windows firewall is off.

I've forwarded both tcp and udp port 6112 to my internal ip, as well as port 6000. Ironclad online works, but it seems to be very laggy so a direct connection is the way to go.

Strange thing is, the vanilla trinity version worked (we tried it before patching).

Any ideas would be appreciated.

Kind regards

technical

You could try hamachi.

or you could both plug into the router. Alternatively you could connect the PCs with a ethernet cord and create an adhoc network.

P.S. I'm assuming that you are both running the same version and no mods, if not that could be the problem.
