How do I set up individual game settings for the logitech profiler
TIGER8855:
The .ini file needs to go in the root directory with the Model 2 .exe
I have attached a copy of my .ini file which you could use and just amend the details (I had to change the extension to .txt to allow me to attach. Change this back to .ini after download). The .ini file in machine 1 needs to point to the IP address of machine 2. The .ini file in machine 2 needs to point to the IP address of machine 1.

Thanks guys for your help.
All makes sense.....I'm just waiting for a DVI to VGA converter to arrive then I'm all over this.
One last question..........
On each individual computer (with the m2network ini file), I see that I have to put the NEXT computer IP address...wouldn't I have to put the current computers IP address in there somewhere. Can the IP address last few digits be my choice, or do I have to get them from the computer somewhere..... As my computers won't be connected to the Internet, just by LAN cable??
Hope this make sense

You don't need to put the IP address of the current computer in the network.ini because the model 2 network works in a ring. This means that you keep putting the next computer IP in. When you get to the last PC it points to the first pc creating a ring.
To find out the IP address of the pc you need to run CMD in windows and then run an ipconfig although if you are connecting the PCs directly you may need to manually set the IP in network and sharing in windows.

I had a quick go at manually setting the IP address, and I believe I have sorted this out now (thanks google).
Just need the DVI to VGA convertor, and I'm under way.
So exciting, can't wait.....thanks for all your help.
Will post back when running (fingers crossed) ;D

Another thing to bear in mind is if you've got a static IP address on each computer or not. If you don't you'll need to re-configure your ini file on each PC each time with the correct IP address (something which I do, which is a bit of a faff. I should really get around to changing to a static IP).
If you like your Sega racers you should definitely try and track down a copy of the PC version of Outrun Coast 2 Coast for LAN play (or two copies I guess, I bought mine as a digital download that entitled me to 5 downloads on different machines) - it's easy to set-up, no messing about with ini files, just create a game on one PC with the LAN option, join it on the other and you're good to go (unfortunately though you can't buy digital copies of the game anymore as Sega no longer have the Ferrari license, you can only get physical copies of the game secondhand - I'm sure an enterprising individual could obtain copies of the game through other less than salubrious means though...).
