My friend and I are new to Doom Legacy, and are trying to play for the first time over the Internet.
We put in doomlegacy.dyndns.org:29810 as the master server, and I put in MGH for the server name.
The first time I tried to start a server it kicked me out with (I think) a DNS_Bind error. The second time it seemed to properly start the server. I was able to see my session start logged here:
and I was running around the maze fine, so I'm pretty sure it connected ok. But when my friend (who put in the same master server name) tried to connect, he wasn't able to see any server names show up when he refreshed.
Then he tried to start a server, called gd, on the same master server. Again, he was able to start one, and that web page logged the start, so it seems to have started fine. When *I* went to refresh the server names, I saw his server and connected.
It booted me out, though, with a "consistency failure". Googling for this just notes it's a generic network failure problem - and asks whether we have the same IWAD and PWAD - I'm pretty sure we do since we downloaded from the same place at roughly the same time, though I don't know 100% because I don't know what those are or how to find them.
We're running on Mac OSX, version 1.40 of Doom Legacy.
Anyone give an tips?
