At first: no, it' not texture quality nor light quality - we both got monster comps bought by ourselves ~1,5 years ago. Graphics is sec to highest quiality, as well as resolution.

I wanted to play with my brother together on this map, and whenever we enter the game, the second played, not the host gets disconnected. Whats more awkard, when we sit to the 1.1 instead of latest 1.2 version, everything works fine, and we have been even playing together last night.

Was is it in 1.2 that causes those disconnects? We were trying to play both on local area network and battle.net. Yes, we both had the same ip.

Thanks in advance.

Report: it had to do with sharing IP. I've set mine IP to static, yet I dont think that was an issue. We share router and my bro could host while me not. His IP adress had ports 6112-6119 for warcraft 3 forwarded, thats why. What we did, was just adding additional forward rule for mine pc. Sharing 6112-6119 was not allowed, but splitting into: 6112-6112 and 6113-6119 done the trick.

Still, was is it in 1.2 that caused DC while 1.1 (j to be precise) allowed us to play freely?

EDIT: without lauchning wc3 via garena, DCs keep coming. However, if garena is lauched, we can play on every version both on battle net and LAN.
