Obviously you should have DirectPlay installed and firewalls deactivated / configured properly for it to work. I wonder why noone brought up this issue yet in the forums. Since I didn't find any solution to this online and found this out myself while pulling my hair out, I thought it was worth sharing. After making the configurations in Gameranger, so it's pointing to the new executable path under Edit -> Options, select the game Stronghold Crusader HD and direct it to the new folder name, it all worked. I didn't test other folder names after getting it to work. If you have a connection issue with GameRanger, please check your routers settings to see if the correct port is open port.
This may occur for a number of reasons, the most likely of which is a firewall port not being open on your router. Long story short: It works if you rename/move the Stronghold Crusader folder.įor example, original installation path: "D:\GOG Games\Stronghold Crusader Extreme HD" didn't work. In some rare cases you may find that you are unable to host or join multiplayer games using GameRanger. So I pasted the files from the Steam version over the ones from my GoG install, but it didn't help.
We were all having the issues no matter the localization (some clients were German, some English, OSes all German), except for the guy on the Steam version. Everytime anyone attempted to start the game for the lobby, a Gameranger window popped up stating "Waiting for host" and a green pulsing progress bar. Have you tryed to disable internet explorer, uninstall both gameranger and firefox (and/or opera) and reinstall firefox and then gameranger Try to log in GR again. We've been trying to host Stronghold Crusader matches on Gameranger, but haven't been able to. Add me on gameranger, nickname : ragenrox I'll try to log in before sunday, if we meet, I'll help you with teamviewer.
