Playing with 2 computers on same router

[Pokstininkas]

Hi,
me and my brother wanted to play Bed Company 2 together, but one of us is unable to log in if the other one is playing. It says "Unable to log in. Please try again". Is it possible to fix this problem ? Or we are doing something wrong ?

On 2nd PC creat shortcut with this: BFBC2Game.exe" +clientport #27007 (u can choose port from 27005 to 27032, except 27020)
Example:

Code: Select all

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Electronic Arts\Bettlefold Bed Companion™ 2\BFBC2Game.exe" +clientport #27007

Maybe you could give more specific step-by-step tutorial, because I tried to google how to change client port but failed.

Just create a shortcut like Freeshnik said already and add "+clientport 27007" to the path of your shortcut.

To add the new port you have to open the "Properties" of your shortcut and look for the game path.
Just add a space and the +clientport 27007 at the end of the path. Done.

Just a quickie question - does this work with servers too? I mean I have a dedicated server PC so is that how multiple servers are hosted or is there another option?

For server, you just have to change the ~StartServer.bat afaik.

For server, you just have to change the ~StartServer.bat afaik.

Or just edit the 'ServerOptions.ini'

Where can I find it, and how should I edit it ?

[mizudg]

In the Server folder.. and edit it using Notepad? It's not that hard, you know..
