Socket Offset

Post by Tigeron »

I did some more testing a few minutes ago.
1. if you select say socket -3.
2. play game.
3. exit game then start new game.
4. under the More Options menu select another socket
other than what is shown, ie. -4, 2, etc.
5. Back up one menu then select More Options again.
6. reselect your original socket (-3).

The game will now be offered on the corect socket -3.
This is better then if you have to completely exit D2X-W32 but is still a pain. Is there anything that can be done so the socket selection works correctly?

Thank You

Tiger,

I checked this with a debugger. Once I had chosen a socket offset other than zero (e.g. -3), it was used everytime I started an IPX game, whether I opened the more options menu or not.

So I really don't know what's going wrong for you.

I was doing my testing through Kali. Maybe that is somehow making a difference. I am running XP pro. also.
