swordknight Posted August 30, 2008 Share Posted August 30, 2008 I know theres another topic just below mine adressing this, but i need some more elaborate explaination. When i go into co-op from the internet menu, i get this: Error Retrieving latest version information ( WS ServerReq Noserversspecified ) nothing happens when i go to lan triggerhappy in the other topic said it has to do with the internet connection or the master server, and obviously right now my internet works but i dont know what the master server is. i also have a question, if i use the program hamachi (www.hamachi.cc), would i be able to connect to my friend over lan? he doesnt live in my house. thanks for any suggestions, im really looking forward to playing this with my friend!

What version are you running for NOLF2? (Should be version 1.3 retail) If it isn't visit the downloads section to patch your game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Triggerhappy Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Hamachi DOES work with NOLF2. I've used it myself before. I just don't know what would be causing that to happen. I would suggest it might be something to do with the CD key, but it sounds like it won't even let you get that far, so again I really can't guess as to what it could be. I mean, if you're getting internet on all of your other applications, then we know it should be receiving access. Do you have a firewall? That would be my only other thought. If you have a firewall and you haven't configured it to have NOLF2 access the internet it might block it from accessing the internet giving you that error. Dunno. I'll post anything else I can think of if I do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll post anything else I can think of if I do. does hamachi work if i select LAN instead of internet? because it lets me make a game in lan. and i forwarded port 27888 on my router firewall and my windows firewall so i dont think it might be a problem. thanks for the quick responses tho guys.

Not sure about that hamachi business, but I think it should work on LAN. Don't know though, you'll just have to try it. I don't know what kind of firewall you're using, but I know that if you're running your connection through a router it works a little differently. Your software firewall though you should try connecting while temporarily disabled just to see if it is blocking access. If it definitely isn't your firewall, then I'm all out of suggestions.

Eliteone Posted September 1, 2008 Share Posted September 1, 2008 You can also add a port exception ( 27888) for your windows firewall. Can you ping the other PC on your LAN? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eliteone Posted September 2, 2008 Share Posted September 2, 2008 Open a command window and use the ping command to ping the other PC on your network that you are trying to see. To find out the IP addresses in the command window type it ipconfig /all at the prompt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
