two players at same time problem
 

read sheet load of posts about this topic on here already..
boo.. linksys.. seems they r the center of 99% of them.

just wanted to post the error's i'm getting before i went and screwed with the port forwarding. maybe someone might know my exact problem.

running MoH on two newer dells, both have there own copy of game, using linksys wireless route (pc's r wired though), router is setup as a gateway.

could be 5 minutes or hour an 5 minutes but eventually one gets dropped
to one of three places
1:MoH main menu - w\this error : CL_PARSESERVERMESSAGE:BAD COMMAND BYTE or CL_PARSEPACKETENTITIES

2:Windows error box wanting me to send billy a useless memo about his softwares incompacities.

3:dropped to desktop MoH gone

eek:
no router experts here?

Guess not. Try reinstalling, or contacting EA:

here's the answer:

You will experience difficulties with Medal of Honor because both computers will attempt to connect to the same internet port (12203). This will cause problems when working behind a router. To prevent this from happening, you’ll have to tell the game to use a different port:

· Right click on the game short cut and go to Properties.

· When the Game Properties window appears, go to the “Target” field. In this field you’ll see something similar to “C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\moh_spearhead.exe”. You will need to add +set net_port 12203 to the end of “C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\moh_spearhead.exe” on the first computer, and on the second one, you’ll add +set net_port 12204 on the second computer. For our example, the first computers “Target” field will look similar to this:
“C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\moh_spearhead.exe” +set net_port 12203
The second computer’s “Target” field would look similar to this:
“C:\Program Files\EA GAMES\MOHAA\moh_spearhead.exe” +set net_port 12204

· After you complete those steps click Apply then click OK and you should be able to have both computers on at the same time.
