Need info for setting up Lan Party

[Tarrant64]

Can someone point me to a good link on setting up quick and easy servers for these games? It's just for a small Lan Party I'm going to have in a couple weeks and I have a couple extra boxes I was going to dedicate to run the servers on.

It won't be setup over the internet, just the intranet(if that makes sense), so yeah. Just the LAN.


TIA!

all you should have to do is network them together,make the server on the PC your wanting to run one on and the rest of the PC's should be able to go to join lan game and the server should show up. Just make sure firewall is turned off on each PC.

If you don't know how to network them together thats another story. But a router and a switch(if its more than 4 PC's) would be the easiest I would think.

Googled:

But this one seems to stand out more:

But setting up a server for each of those games will need to be search because I don't think you'll find it on one site alone. Like I said they all should be pretty much the same.

With UT2k4 on LAN you should be fine using someone's PC to both host the game and let them play at the same time.

Networking the PC's together isn't a problem for me at all.

yeah, i think at the last lan I was at my friends just used their own pc's to run the ut2k4 server.

Thanks for the info!
