; It only offers serial com 1 and 2 has choices. How can I configure
properly in order to join online races ?
Many thanks in advance.
Many thanks in advance.
alternate_ip_addr_lookup = 1
If you don't already have a core.ini file in your c:\sierra\gpl
directory, create a text file in there, name it core.ini and put the
following lines in it:
[ Communications ]
alternate_ip_addr_lookup = 1
net_mdm_client_send_every = 3
net_mdm_client_send_size = 84
net_mdm_server_send_every = 3
net_mdm_server_send_size = 84
Good luck,

net_lan_client_send_every = 3 ; Client packet freq on LAN
net_lan_client_send_size = 84 ; Client packet size on LAN
net_lan_server_send_every = 3 ; Server packet freq on LAN
net_lan_server_send_size = 84 ; Server packet size on LAN
I thought I had read somewhere that the above parameters are used for cable
modems. Does anyone know for sure?

This isn't necessary. By default, we use the "net_mdm_*_send_*"
settings for TCP/IP, regardless of the type of connection. You can
override this if you want, but would generally only do so if you are
running exclusively on a LAN, and IPX is not available to you on the
LAN. If this is your situation, you can add this setting to
core.ini...
[ Communications ]
net_use_mdm_bandwidth_for_tcp_ip = 0
(the default value for the setting is 1). Do NOT override this setting
unless you really need it. If you do, you won't able to host or join
Internet races.
