TCP/IP Failing to Connect For MultiPlayer Game in WIN 10

Hi Folks-

My friends and I have been playing CIV II online for several years. One of the crew recently upgraded from WIN 7 to WIN 10. He re-installed CIV II and that works fine in single player mode.

However, when he attempted to join our multiplayer game in progress......the dreaded message came thru.... "Game machine failed to connect." Made numerous attempts to connect as well as checking online to see what the issue was.

Has anybody had this issue and if so how is it resolved.

Thanks in Advance.

Hey there. I have the same issue. Have Win 10. Using Hamachi. And Civ 2 MGE. Fails to connect while others can connect. Considering makeing an win xp or win 7 partition or using virtual box.

Has anybodey solved this problem on plain Win 10? Any thought or help appreciated. Thx.

Ok, to run Civ2 on Windows 10 basis, I managed to set up a workaround: A virtual machine with Virutalbox with Win XP OS and Civ2 and Evolve in it. Works perfectly fine. Establishing the internet connection was a bit of work though. But finally it works. Yay!
