I've recently bought copies of FS2 off of steam for myself and a few friends who've never played the games before. After getting the mods I wanted all set up through Knossos (including FSPort and FS1 COOP UP), I get a message when attempting to enter the briefing room "You must define your connection speed. Please run the launcher, hit the setup button, and go to the network tab and choose your connection speed". I have no idea what it means by "launcher" since the game just boots itself up when attempting to run. I've already gotten the PXO account entered in, but can't seem to get past this point or what to even do once past this hurdle. I'm willing to use a virtual LAN such as Hamachi. Any advice would be appreciated.

wookieejedi:
Knossos is the Launcher :) Also, just to confirm, you are using Knossos.NET correct?

r4r1t3:
Yes, I'm using the latest download for Knossos.net launcher.

taylor:
Just checked and it appears that Knossos.NET doesn't offer to change the network type and speed settings, nor does any in-game option.

The fix is to add or change two lines in the [Default] section of your fs2_open.ini file:


--- Code: ---NetworkConnection=LAN
ConnectionSpeed=Fast
--- End code ---

I assume that you are on Windows, and unfortunately I don't remember where the fs2_open.ini file is located there, but hopefully someone else can point you to the correct location if you're unable to find it. However after that modification it should start working for you.

r4r1t3:
It seems like the .ini file already has ConnectionSpeed=Fast and NetworkConnection=LAN
