*stick please*

How to set up

TO HOST THE GAME
1. Load FM07
2. Click Preferences (on main menu) > Network > Run as server (tick that box and confirm)
3. Click Preferences (on main menu) > General > More matchest for TV (un-tick that box and confirm)
4. Click "New Game" (on the main menu)
5. Don't choose many leagues as it runs slow enough with only the Premier League with fast computers.
6. Give other players your IP address. You can find out what your IP address by clicking here

TO JOIN THE GAME
1. Load up FM07
2. Click Preferences (on main menu)> General > Move matches for TV (un-tick that box and confirm)
3. Select Network from the main menu
4. Select "Join other server" and then enter the IP address. We aren't sure who's IP we will use but it will be announced during the week. It will most likely be me who is hosting

PLEASE NOTE
You will only be able to join the game if you are using version 7.0.2. If you are unsure which version of FM07 you have you should:

• Go to the main menu
• Click Preferences (on the main menu)
• At the top of the screen it will say which version you have

If you have version 7.0, all you need to do to get 7.0.2 is by clicking "check for updates" on the main menu which will take you to the sigames website (you will only be able to get there it you are connected to the internet), you will then be able to download the 7.0.2 patch.

Regards,

If one person exits the game, does the game end?

 

[Dragonsforthewin]

no, even if the host disconnects I think another player automatically becomes host, not sure though
