cs lan game

leadazide · 05-16-2004, 06:39 AM

I've just got cs 1.3 to work with wine and cvs winex, with sound, 3d etc. But when I want to play a lan game I can't see any server in lan games list although sometimes multiple games are running. Any suggestions?

you all run the same version on cs ?

leadazide · 05-16-2004, 10:43 AM

yes we all run cs 1.3 and cs 1.6 but I didn't install cs 1.6 because I have very little free space now. Other computers see my game when I host it but only I don't see any game.
Also a cs 1.3 client can detect 1.6 games, only it can't connect to them and I don't see any games at all, I've to enter IPs manually in the 'online game' section

any suggestions?

we have 100 PCs in our network and sometimes different games are open, so when you want to see what's currently being played it doesn't work - the list is empty. Even when I host a game other PCs can see it but I myself - not (when I press Esc).

what's this? I see a thread I posted 3 days ago and there were even replies, and here - no replies and the time/date are wrong. Server problems?

phe - and now it's all right again

Just do a "connect (ip)" command. All you need is the ip of the host you want to connect to. If it's on LAN, or not, the game will know. You won't lose any performance or anything.

I'll quote myself

ocarina_of_time, Did you read this?

It worked for me already. The problem is, sometimes I don't know the IP of the host: I just want to open CS and watch what games are already running.

Somewhy when I downloaded newest WineX CVS the problem has been solved - now I can browse LAN games and so on

BUT only when I disable the firewall.

Oh, sorry about that, I guess I missed that. That's definately wierd, the firewall shouldn't keep you from seeing others on LAN... I can't help you.

leadazide · 06-04-2004, 03:01 PM

ok, that's not such a problem, somewhy even samba without firewall doesn't work correctly (though I explicitly told it in Yast NOT to protect the computer from internal network)

... forget it ...
