Trying to netplay with some friends for the first time, but do I need to fiddle with any of these settings? Not exactly sure what they are.
I got the basics down. I forwarded my ports to the default of 5029, and I give my friends the external IP address. I tried a combination of settings, not knowing too much what they do, like net mode, extractic, etc. I don't know if it makes a difference, but my friend's ZDL keeps saying something along the lines of "cannot find host = NO DATA" or something, pretty sure on the DATA part of the error. He had to leave though, so I'll have to try again later to see the exact error. Is there anything else I'm missing?
We're just trying regular old Doom to see if we can at least connect, we'll deal with mods later.
