Hi,
Recently I've tried a multiplayer game with GP2 using a null-modem.
Every time it resulted in a synchronisation error (of something like
that, I don't remember the exact message) after a minute or so.
Has anybody had the same problem, and has been able to fix it?
(Please mail me, instead of the newsgroup. I hardly visit it!)
Thanks,

The null modem link is poor, and usually requires that you turn down the
detail options to get a good frame rate. Still, we're never going to get
a network option or any other fix for GP2, so it's better than nothing.
It works best when both machines have similar performance (mainly CPU
speed).
