Hi all,

I've downloaded the Q2 EGL engine and it looks good with gore +10.  I'd like to be able to connect to multiplayer, but it only shows up as able to connect as LAN.  It sees the IPs for other servers, but shows no players (when I know there are players, or at least the maint. bot Wallyfly) and won't connect anyway.   :?

I play Q2Pro for multiplayer, so it's not a major issue.  I also use KMquakeQ2 with 3rd person as a fun single player mission game (there's still a lot of single player maps out there - Pax Imperium is a great one, for example).  I also have classic Q2, and that connects OK, although I don't bother to use it ...    ;)  I've been using EGL for the Q2 coop or die mod, but nobody has joined me, as yet - may have to revert back to classic Q2, but will see.    :P

Any ideas as to why it won't connect to multiplayer?  Thanks all, as always   ;D   bean$  :evilgrin:

I was on DM this morning for the first time in a pretty long time. Seemed fine to me.

DM server is fucked. 2 point blank rockets from spawn and lava damage and player survived? WTF?" Also someone has fucked with the spawn points, every single time no matter how big the map you spawn right in front of the person who killed you last
