Can somebody make a compatibility fix for Worms 2?
« on: May 10, 2014, 08:06 PM »
It would make it look much better on Windows XP and up. It would also let it work with Wine.

On wine, make sure you add dsound.dll to the DLL overrides in winecfg.
This is not for wine: http://www.gog.com/forum/worms_series/plugin_windowed_mode_for_worms_2_improve_windows_8_performance

Dec 30 2013 23:59:44 <StepS> windowed mode isn't the only thing you need about frontend
Dec 30 2013 23:59:49 <StepS> you need it to be actually bigger
Dec 31 2013 00:00:13 <StepS> it actually is very small on my 15-inch full HD screen
Dec 31 2013 00:00:25 <StepS> while running at 640x480 or stretched mode makes it fuzzy
Dec 31 2013 00:00:44 <StepS> this problem has been around since the Worms Armageddon's release and no one has even tried to beat it

Nah, it's more about the ports being closed I think, but the firewall still locks something I don't know, so I'm still unable to host.

i remember when w2 was coming to an end, all the active players had to use Hamachi...


so, of your interested in playing w2 online, as Fenice said, you can get on server, but to be able to connect to eachother, Hamachi will be the only way.

It worked just fine last I tried, a couple of months ago. It helps if you don't have a ridiculous network setup with unnecessary routers and funky MTU values, of course. Everyone's game also has to be patched to at least the latest official version.

But yeah, there's nobody online anymore.
