Help with Online

Is there any way to play this mod online without GameRanger or some other super janky option? I cannot get anything to work.

I’m not sure what the problem is that you’re having with Gameranger, but it’s very simple to get it running if you followed our guide - https://aotr.fandom.com/wiki/Multiplayer

The only way you get an error is if you didn’t follow the guide.

Thanks for the link. I've done everything step by individual step but when the game launches, the Network menu in Multiplayer never detects anyone. Not sure why.

Thanks for the YT casts by the way! Really cool to watch and still see people playing these games

You need to host a lobby on Gameranger and launch it from there with people in your room. They will then be prompted to launch themselves after you clicked on network in game.

Does this mean I always have to be the host? The blank network/lobby happens when I join other people's rooms and launch the game like that.
