Well first of all the comuniti code proyect is exellent, i never play freespace 2 until now.
Explaining cronology i did this:
First i installed the freespace 2 game.
Then i installed FS2Open_3_6_5-Installer.exe
Then i patched freespace 2 to 1.2
Then i installed mv_zpack.exe
I catch the files and i put all them in the freespace 2 directory, owerwriting the mv_core.vp
I launch the "Launch Freespace2 Open" and i play de game, but the problem is wen i go to the multiplayer hall, and i want to create a game, when i press comit in "the create game part" the game crash.
sory for my english

Check my FAQ's gameplay section for links to the Game Warden guide to multiplayer.
:welcome:

I cant find the answer to my problem, can you help me?
-
ok, try a different build. the 3.6.6 installer probably comes with a build that isnt optimized for multiplayer.
-
try right here http://www.game-warden.com/20050103-win32.zip
-
Can you explain me how to install that?
-
Download that build (the .exe) to your hard drive. Move the build to your root freespace 2 directory (usually C:/games/freespace 2/). I am assuming that you have the freespace launcher. Run that and 'browse' to the newly downloaded .exe. Set your desired command line options and then click 'run'

I do remember seeing exactly this problem mentioned before. Can't remember what the solution was though.
-
Thanks everyone, the problem was that i didnt download a build!! jejeje.....
If i create a game, how the others can enter to my game, i dont see a ip label or anything like that.
-
If Multi is working for you then others will see your game when they connect online through the lobby. You shouldn't need to distribute your IP unless you're playing a LAN game.
-
What is the best build?
-
My internet connection is insufficient to play Multi over. I have no idea. Whichever build is stable for you would be my advice. I've had good luck with the 7-22 and 7-28 builds in general, except for some screwy AI behavior.
-
I test 3 builds white the mv_zpack.exe , but i cant doit work. The game crash in mp.
If i dont use whit the goomer builds the game works fine.

Have a read of these three threads. There might be something pertinent in one of them.
Thread 1 (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,31445.0.html), Thread 2 (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,29543.0.html), Thread 3 (http://www.hard-light.net/forums/index.php/topic,24957.0.html)
I really suggest trying Tom's Old Build to check if the problem is your install of FS2.
