Warcraft 1 Multyplayer - Come here for directions

[DesKaladA]

After monts of reserch i have finaly gotton warcraft 1 to be multiplayer
i'm gonna post some instructons here

and if anyone wants to play with me wisper me in the hive chatroom

First off you will need Dosbox
and warcraft 1

after you install dosbox and download warcraft1 unzip warcraft 1 and put it in a folder on your c: or a flash drive(youll see why later)

then go to where you installed dosbox and open you dosbox.conf

look for

ipx=false

and make it say

ipx=true

save that and then start dosbox

if you are the server for the game type IPXNET STARTSERVER and make shure port 213 is unblocked from your firewall then get your ip

if you are player for the game then type in IPXNET CONNECT host-ip-address

after that both people should enter
mount c c:\(name of the dir where warcraft1 is on your hard drive)
then type in
c:

then run
setup
and say ok then navagete out of the app
then type in
war

navagate to
Start a new game
Then network game
and pick a node
a good node to use is node 01

after that if it all works you will connect to the server and be able to play

once you are finished
all players need to type in IPXNET DISCONNECT

once all of them typed that in the server types in IPXNET STOPSERVER
and you can safely close out of dosbox

happy gameing
