Keep in mind that this text is very old and a lot of infos might not be related anymore!Ĭarmageddon TDR2000 Tutorials - Online Problems So as a complement of information I'm going to quote one of Rax_X's old tutorials covering most of the online problems you might encounter. Sadly there's like nothing left on the net. Normally to end this article I would have posted links to other sites and tutorials. (This applies to C2 as well btw) Make sure that everyone understands this point before starting the game and everything will be ok. The important point I have to add is that the Opponent Repulsificator is considered an unfair powerup and shouldn't be used. Now about the actual gameplay, I think most of you will figure it out rather easily from a game mode to another. You can find all these tools in the files section or on RR2000. Other notable tools are the Spectator mode and the Stunt Challenge mode. But also a gamescript editor! This is a very useful tool to prepare advanced tournaments. Amongst them were for example the Advanced Car/Track Changer which allows players to change their default multiplayer car and track without having to run the game (saves time!). Masters Of Mayhem (led by Wolverine) did a lot of work to keep the TDR scene alive and produced a lot of mods and tools to enhance the game experience. If it crashes at that point it means your installation is different from the host's one!īeen able to play a game? Everything's working, getting the hang of it? Great! It's not over yet!īack in the time (I'am actually talking about 2001-2004 heh), there were teams! Masters of Mayhem, 666HP, and for a short time, Road Reaction (y'all know what it became as the years went by). A little while later, other users will launch their game as well and join in the existing room. One of the users must be defined as the host (usualy the person with the best internet connection) and will launch the game and prepare the multiplayer game room with the chosen settings. Just talk a bit to make sure everybody's using the same version of TDR and/or the MAX pack, and what game mode/track/etc. Ok so by now you should be connected to a room/network and hopefully find other people to play with. Point is to join a network where you'll find people to play with. Other VLAN programs similar to Hamachi (like Tunngle) usualy work the same. And ofcourse you can also create your own room/network! Anyway if the first room happened to be full (there's a 16 users limit per network in Hamachi!) you can try to join devWAM, ID is 038-969-673, yes in our case it's a numeric ID as the network is managed. While Carma666 is dedicated to TDR2000, devWAM is more about multiplayer C2 testing. Another room is this very forum room devWAM. There simply input Carma666 as network ID and carmageddon as password. You can join in by clicking on Join an existing network in the top menu. Once again you have to setup your Hamachi installation but it's pretty straight forward. VLAN programs like Hamachi however require you to join in an existing fan-made network before you can play. The best thing about GSA is the fact it has native support for TDR and a dedicated room (with no members limit). The only pre-requirement might be to have an IGN/FilePlanet/GameSpy account, just sign in and you're ready to roll. Installing and playing with GSA is very intuitive. Personaly I think it should have stayed the default as it makes things very easy but since 2006 virtual LANs took the advantage. Back in the time we all used GameSpy Arcade (GSA) as it has native support for TDR2000. Now you also have to find yourself a room to play in. Before installing the MAX-pack you must make sure that your TDR2000 installation is totally clean and unmodified. These can be found in the files section of the forum. Depending on where you play and whom you play with, you'll either have to install the 1.14f pack alone, or 1.14f + 1.15 beta patch. Nowadays the default is De4mon's MAX-pack. Back in the time we had to either install the Nose Bleed patch or the US Minipatch. In order to play online TDR games, you must first update your installation. Still, playing a bit of multiplayer from time to time can be a heap of fun. It's an old game as well nowadays and slowly shows reticence to run on some modern systems. Ok, so Carmageddon TDR 2000 was the only proper multiplayer one in the series.
