How to start the server and play multiplayer.
1. It is necessary to install a mod Multiplayer Launcher v1.0
http://unityhq.net/forums/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=78
2. It is necessary to install a mod Project-M 1.0 and connect events Project-M 1.0 through the game menu(CUSTOM-x-OK).
http://unityhq.net/forums/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=118
3. Start the server in "LAN Only"(PLAY-Multiplayer-HOST-Connection-LAN Only) : server set up on the Internet(!)
You can not run the server in the "Internet": crash(!)
4. Browse to the server using the button "circular arrow" does not work (!!) (Windows7, WindowsXP): An error occurs and the game is turned off.
Players connect to the server using the menu of the game with the mod Project-M 1.0 (PLAY-Multiplayer-Join)

 

 

Play multiplayer without mods (optional) ..

Game Series NOLF (NOLF, NOLF2, Contract JACK) supports Qtracker ....Qtracker is COMPLETELY FREE.
http://www.qtracker.com/

!!! Important !!!

Right-click on the icon //Qtracker //NOLF2 //Contract JACK// - Properties - Compatibility

1. Make the //Qtracker //NOLF2 //Contract JACK// executable run in Windows XP Service Pack 3 compatibility mode

2. Disable desktop composition for the //Qtracker //NOLF2 //Contract JACK// executable.

3. Add the //Qtracker //NOLF2 //Contract JACK// executable to the exceptions list for Windows' Data Execution Prevention.

 

Qtracker with Windows 8.1
1. After installing Qtracker, Windows 8.1 system will message to download and install DirectPlay.(Press "Ok")
2. If compatibility Qtracker with Windows XP SP3 is not enabled, then Qtracker ERROR message: "Filed to start the application"

I installed Qtracker on two computers with different providers.
I launched the classic server Contract JACK (v1.1) without mods on one computer (212.3.155.124)

For Game Server:

Pre In the network settings on your computer, change your primary DNS to: 63.239.170.150

On another computer (another Internet provider, 83.220.237.144) I installed a "clean" without mods game Contract JACK and interface Qtracker I saw the server and all connected ... and easy.
Playing with modes from the URA Project-M 1.0 & Multiplayer Launcher v1.0 has also been installed and tested.
The situation was modeled off the server http://sficlan.net/nolf2servers/cj_servers.php?action=add
In this situation, the server Contract JACK You can connect only interface Qtracker

Mod from URA Project-M 1.0 bug fixes Format string vulnerability, so it is necessary of course

 

The interface Qtracker I saw all the servers and NOLF2 & NOLF well.
