i'm having a few problems with Alien Crossfire (it's both patched and WinXP patched). EA support is of course worthless.
I use WinXP, and appearently have an unsupported CPU, but i fixed that with forceoldalgorithm=1
here we go:
1) well, i'd like to play this game using TCP/IP protocol, but every time i choose it and press OK the game hangs completely, i can't even close it with Task Manager. i have to restart my computer.
2) the second problem is that whenever i create a IPX game the other computer can not join. it will say that there's no game. I KNOW that it should work as i did this yesterday!
3) whenever i have created a game and try to exit by clicking "Cancel", the game will hang up.
whenever i start a game and try to quit it, the game will hang up.
these problems started suddenly. out of nowhere. everything worked, except TCP/IP, it would just pop me back to the main menu when i click "host" but the game wouldnt hang!
if you know what to do, please tell me. if you know someone or some community that will be able to help me better than this one, please tell me.
thanks
