Default Re: Multiplayer setup help

But if you want to see how server mode is done you can do that also.

Start Dom3, go to Network, then Setup a Dominions Server.
Pick a port number like 19191.
Then a Game name.

Now open Dom3 again, choose Network, Connect to a Dominions Server. Put the IP and port that it showed in the other screen. Make your selections and start the game.

Now going back to the server one, select map and game settings, then host it.

As you can see its abit of a pain. Its only useful doing it that way if you plan to host a game later and want to see the Hosting side and Player sides seperately.
