Tore Posted February 26, 2012 Share Posted February 26, 2012 Where did you get the freeware version of Tiberian Sun? And why are you using Hamachi when CnCNet exists? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ragnahr Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 i think they were all from fileplanet. installed cncnet on all computers and still when the last player tries to join it says to players have the same serial# as you.. should i try and download the game from elsewhere? any other sugestions?? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tore Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Download Tiberian Sun from here: http://cnc-comm.com/community/index.php?action=downloads;sa=view;down=41, should solve the issue. TS only allows 2 people using the same serial to play a multiplayer game, but our TS installer generates a random number so TS thinks it has different serials. This is an oversight EA made when they made TS freeware. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
