| subject: | My 14.4 don`t like games |
Hello there! I have a question regarding my Maestro 14.4 executive modem. It connects and runs just fine on BBSes, and my ISP, other modems too, if I'm just chatting or doing file transfer. However, I have yet to play a successful game of Doom, Duke 3d, C&C, and others, with my modem. The only two games I ever got it to work with were Descent and Line Wars II. It almost seems it doesn't like games that use syncronous transfer, like the above. I think Descent uses asyncronous. I probably have those two mixed up :). What typically happens with the non-working games is it either just waits for the other modem to respond before going into the game, but waits forever, or one of us gets in while the other person is disconnected. I have tried various games with various friends, but none work. These friends have no trouble playing with others over modem. Can anyone suggest a solution? --- GEcho 1.12/beta+* Origin: The InterACTive BBS - Canberra ACT - (06) 253-4933 (3:620/243) SEEN-BY: 50/99 54/99 620/0 200 242 243 245 351 623/630 625/160 640/820 SEEN-BY: 711/401 413 430 934 712/311 407 505 506 517 623 624 690 704 841 SEEN-BY: 713/317 714/906 800/1 @PATH: 620/243 712/624 711/934 |
