(2) Add IPX/SPX as a network protocol to your network adaptors. (1) See if the authors of Red ALert (Westwood Studios) have a multicast patch or add-on for the game - rather than just IPX. Other users then simply join a multi-player game by "joining" the multicast group -e.g 239.10.20.5 - which is advertied by the IP network.īut back to Red Alert C & C.two options come to mind : There needs to be a hosting server (Multicast Source) which all other players listen or "receive " information from. Most modern games (e.g Half Life, Age of Empires etc etc) use Multicast IP for multi player games - as this is ideally suited for that environment. Yes - I have heard of Red Alert and even played it too.I just dug out my old copy and manual - and it does seem it only supports IPX.
