I downloaded the undead campaign pack, yet when I tried playing one of the maps with my friend, he joined the game but was immediately kicked. I tried it with every map, we always get the same result. Its not the internet connection because we played a few other maps right after.

I'm not gonna mark this as Confirmed yet, maybe I'm the only one who has that problem

Hey Twiz.

1- I just tried all the latest Undead Campaign maps on LAN and didn't face any problem.

2- Were you facing this problem only with The 2 Player Campaign maps?

3- I don't think it's wise that you confirm you're own bugs.
 
Yes, it was only with the 2 Player Campaign Maps. Once I tried another map it worked

I agree, its not ;p
 
Also experienced this problem. The one who didnt host disced immediately. Tried HU1 and UD1.
 
Yes. And when my friend hosted i got kicked instead.

I have an idea of what the problem might be, i dont know.

First i downloaded UD01 from him. I had not downloaded any other campaigns. It ended up in my download folder.

I then downloaded the full UD and HU campaigns from hive. 2 New folders were created in my download folder. In each folder there was a folder called "maps". Inside were the actual maps, but they could not be seen ingame, only when i checked the folder in windows. So i copied all the human maps from download > 2PHumanCampaign > Maps to download, then they could be seen ingame and then i hosted them. So what im saying is it might be some kind of pathing problem?
 
This is interesting, I'd like to try get it resolved as quickly as possible.
As I plan to do a quick mapwide update to fix another problem, it'd be good if I could get this done aswell.

Twizter, there's something I need you to do with me.
I need you try and work out whats causing this disconnection.

Do this:
- Choose a map, double check your friend is kicked when you try hosting it
- Then double check with another friend
- Delete all the triggers, and host it again. (Tell me if your friend is disconnected)
- Then tell me what you found out!
 
Actually.. we played while we were at his house. We took a cable and connected the PCs. Maybe that could be part of the problem. Still, I'll try it out tomorrow, can't right now :(
