Network Racing?

Hi, I just got my 2 computers networked through a router and everything works great. Now, my next step is to get my sims, N4, Heat, F1 2K1, N3, GPL set up to be able to race against my buddies, here in my home. Could someone point me to a website that explains how to do this or just email me a how to? I did a ng search on Google and came up dry. Here's a great site by some flyboys for info on simple networking that helped me tremendously! :) http://www.retrorelics.net/jim/networking.htm Thanks, -Brian Mc

If the two computers can see each other in network neighborhood, just fire up the s/w on both pc's, and host on one and join on the other. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Brian McLernon <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:kq%E7.15065$[email hidden]... > Hi, > I just got my 2 computers networked through a router and everything > works great.

Biz, thanks for responding. So, both computers need to be setup to run the sims all by themselves, ie: sim software, drivers, etc.? Cool, I'll give it a go! -Brian Mc "Biz" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:gS%E7.154882$[email hidden]...

Yes, you also have to have 2 copies of each sim, one installed on each computer> How else did you think you played on 2 networked pc's? -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Brian McLernon <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:sYhF7.20359$[email hidden]... > Biz, thanks for responding.
