I have found it impossible to host or join online games even in uim versions because new online protocols require you to have a static (generic) ip address and because Windows 7 and later versions of Windows no longer support directx and directplay which network games depended on.

Had no problem hosting a server on Windows 10 and connecting to it on Linux over LAN. Should work over the Internet. Windows 7 and later still supports directplay, you just need to enable it: www.thewindowsclub.com/how-to-install-and-enable-directplay-on-windows If directplay was no longer supported, we would not still be playing multiplayer games of GTA2. |

Maybe the Steam release will have some tweaks, we can only hope right?

Pretty sure the only tweaks are getting the videos and music to work without CDs
They dont have the source code

You need to get whitelisted by Denacity, join the discord discord.gg/vyaUCg8apv and send him a private message with your Zero Tier node address. |
