SHOWDOWN LAN

[alexwstl]

Have anyone had any luck with this game? It’s a really fun game and would love to get LAN working. Others have said it works and its very similar to GRID and RALLY 3, but it doesn’t seem to be pulling the ini files, I’m sure it’s a directory issue but I can’t figure it out. If someone can share their setup I would really appreciate it. hanks again!

That is one of the games that Teknoparrot says works via LAN.. Have you tried that??

There doesn't appear to be anything in the TeknoParrot config for LAN and this game.  So it might be outside of TK in INI files.  Which may or may not work if you launch the game through TK.

I'll see if I can get it going on my twin cab this weekend if I have time.

I made these modifications after looking for each ini file. Not sure if all these modifications are required. Worked at first try for me.

Good luck!
