Hi, I had this on the general forum, but it was deleted.

Has anyone else had this problem. I try playing PTW v1.27f US MultiPlayer LAN, 2 players vs 1 computer, turn based. Game loads and starts on two pcs fine, but then, the units won't move. It says it's my turn, but no dice. Point and click and nothing. Tell settler to build a city and nothing. Same thing in simultaneous mode. Turnless doesn't allow a computer player. Anyone else?

A fine person on another forum submitted this fix:

1. Host computer uses CD and sets up the MP LAN game.

2. Once the host sets the game settings, take out the CD and place it in the other computer.

3. Other computer starts PTW and joins the host's game.

4. Once inside the setup screen the other computer chooses his civilization and clicks the "ready" button. Take out the CD and return it to the host.

5. Host puts in the CD, choose the number of AI's to play with and "clicks the "ready" button.

6. Host launches the game.
