I can confirm that the legit Steam version of Sanctum with latest updates worked fine on LAN with 1.02 (saw and connected without any problem, tried hosting and joining from both machines). Take care when listening to some bug reports. Some of the errors may be due incorrectly configured firewalls, routers, offline-only cracks and so on.

Did anyone tried Fear 3 or some others steamworks 2man coop games?

There is major memory corruption in current and previous release... weird behavior and threads got terminated and causing CTD randomly..

Did you try the 2nd update of sanctum? That might be the area of concern.
I tried new install, update 1, update 2, update 3 amd update 4 on 3 different pcs, all with firewire walls off, with xp, win7 and win8, and with and withou

The emulator uses direct connection, the broadcast is uses only for discovery purpose - search others who played the game. So with small changes, it is quite possible to play the game multiplayer via internet...

Maybe it's an idea to create small packages for each game, it will be easier for noobs and better to share.

I was just about to post that my PC running Windows XP frequently crashes running SmartSteam Emulator especially right on launch, but that must be the cause. My Windows 7 PC does not crash like that. titanecd wrote: Sanctum now shows up in the server browser list which it didn't in 1.02. But still unable to connect. Just says "Unable to connect to host" Doesn't Sanctum already have built-in LAN support? On an unrelated note I tested Post Apocalyptic Mayhem, and it does NOT work with SmartSteam Emulator v1.03. A PC can create a custom match, but other PC's on the LAN cannot find the session. The game is playable in multiplayer with PC's on the LAN via the Internet using standard/uncracked Steam and the Trine 2 demo or Serious Sam TSE HD AppID's though. syahmixp, How does SmartSteam Emulator currently find hosted game sessions? Are you just broadcasting the multiplayer session information on 255.255.255.255 or 224.0.0.1? Would it not be possible to modify SmartSteam Emulator so that a DNS or NETBIOS name or IP address (although name would probably work better for IPv6 compatibility) could be specified in the SmartSteamEmu.ini to direct the game session traffic rather than rely on a broadcast address? That would also allow the game session traffic to be routed so it would work on LAN and campus networks which have multiple subnets and even work on the Internet without using a VPN.

I just copied the Steam version I own with all the latest updates and DLCs downloaded automatically to a no-Steam laptop to see if the emulator worked. According to the game's troubleshooting FAQ, if you have an older version, you may need to open/forward the following ports on your router: TCP: 7777, 27000-27039 UDP: 1200, 7777, 27000-27039 With the latest official version, the FAQ says that it "now features NAT-traversal which means ports shouldn't have to be opened." Maybe that's what's causing your connection problems.

Hmmm, I tried to use it with KillingFloor as a simple test. The game is starting well , but when I want to host a game , I got a message like this : "Steam must be running" ... I guess I made a mistake Anyway relative path support in ini file could be great : you could just copy the game directory from Pc to Pc qithout modify the path

So with small changes, it is quite possible to play the game multiplayer via internet... That's what I thought. So, could you change SmartSteam Emulator to allow the broadcast to be targeted at a specific host (by DNS name, NETBIOS name, or IP)? Discovery seems to be the problem with some games right now.

Great to see this project works on so many games now! A big thanks to syahmixp! Maybe it's an idea to create small packages for each game, it will be easier for noobs and better to share. This project is fantastic.

Vrah2 Added confirmed games to the list Not sure yet, the error is too generic... Need some guesswork.. c3d3 Check your path inside SmartSteamEmu.ini Check your Target and StartIn.. HB Of course... I will make it try to connect directly to the specified address in config file... -- Edit -- Royalgamer06 wrote: Maybe it's an idea to create small packages for each game, it will be easier for noobs and better to share. That's your job A graphical tutorial might be good too

@syahmixp , thanks , will test Orc's Must Die 2 with latest update later (Initial release crashes when creating character ) , so far no success with HomeFront.. really want to lan this game , what do you need me to show you so that you may know what may cause the error to create a game? , also just a tip the front page of this thread might be better to let the old releases's changelog be putted in a 'Spoiler' @Royalgamer06 , would be nice if you could make packages for the confirmed games (off topic - is there a problem with your Steam Database , everytime i want to access it i must click the link in your signature , if i type it in the browser directly it doesn't work)
