Problems using Netplay, any help would be appreciated.

I've been trying to connect to Netplay with a friend and after "init client", it doesn't do anything. We've tried version 1.42 and 1.36 (I was told 1.36 is better for Netplay). We've also tried ZBattle. We don't have routers, I've tried with both UDP and TCP, nothing works. I've read a huge amount of posts and the read-me files and I haven't been able to find an answer. Any more information that you may need from me in order to try to help me, please let me know. Thank you.

What's the specs for both computers ? What's the internet connection for your computers (I'll assume dialup, since you don't use routers) ?

I have DSL and he has cable, I have 256 MB, Windows Me and he has around 512 Windows XP. What else do you need to know?

If you two are using broadband, chances are is that you have routers. Check the docs for both routers and read the port forarding sticky.

Make sure the person with win Xp has his windows firewall properly configured.

I called my ISP and the agent walked me through it. Fortunately, he knew about and uses Zsnes. We can only play TCP though but I guess it's better than nothing. Thank you both for your help
