Hi, im trying to get connected to the multiplayer games. So im trying to launch a "test" game, and I always get an error that the game does not see my internet connection. Any ideas of what might be happening? Im running Windows 10 Pro on Bootcamp with CFS3.

Hi Gordy,

Yes, when you go to Multiplayer then Host Game, on the next page you must uncheck
"Publish my game in the CFS Game Match directory".

It's because the MS directory is not there anymore...
...and if you put one up I'll help test it.
(but I'd need to know the I.P.)
Cheers!

Hi, the I.P. is the number that players would have to enter to join your game.

It's not good to leave your number posted
and you have six hours or so to edit it out.

If you have a router, you need to do 'port forwarding'.
 
Other things could be:

The oleacc.ddl file must be deleted from game
if using Vista or newer to join MP.
(this software has its own but XP did not)

The CFS3.exe that you are using and the CFS3 icon must
made compatible with Windows XP SP3 and run as administrator.
