LAN game but no internet

[bfdm_mexi]

that guide mentions nothing about LANs period. the "get started guide" is of no help. how bout a little help instead of immediate attitude. if you had, this post would be over.

I believe this page might be the documentation that eftertanke is referring to.

I've never done it myself but I imagine that it's simply a case of choosing one of the player's PC's to be the server (as well as a client). The documentation implies that you can run both on one PC quite happily but you should choose the most powerful PC with the most stable connection (i.e. Wired connection to router is preferred over wireless for server).

Then everyone simply connects to that server using "/join [LAN ip address of server]"

I could be wrong though. :)

Ya I read that. But its REALLY vague. Do I modify the server.bat file? Do I create a new server using the server wizard and if so how? I'm pretty saavy on computers. But I can't find anywhere to put my IP address in so the other computers in the network can connect.

BTW thanks for the help and not just strong-arming me with "read the forums" first nonsense. I did that and its no help. I appreciate it.
