Ok, I'm running windows xp home ed blah blah. I tried to start my own game and I kept on getting client side RTE 9 And I coudln't solve it. It looks like some of the.ddl's or what ever didn't install rgiht? I can't figure out why so I just gave up. But I tried getting onto my friends client, and his server he is hosting. and I can't I mean, there are other people that can. but it seems that none of the clients I can try can hook up to any servers.'ve made sure the Ip config is right, I checked my firewall ect ect. everything says it shoulld work as far as I can see. any sugestioins?

The server log records my conneting but a momment later I terminate connection apperantly.

Something like this happened to me on a Windows XP Pro SP2 Computer.

1.) Install the libary files step 1, 2 and 3 in that order.
2.) Find DirectX 9c on Microsoft's website and install
3.) Reboot
4.) Check and make sure nothing stupid is wrong with server and client to cause RTE9.
5.)COnfigure IP
6.) You should be up and running
