SH4 Random Map

[U-4053]

Howdy all
it's been some time since I have been in here.
I recently reinstalled SH4 and added the 1.5 patch.
A problem has occurred, where in Multiplay mode I am unable to host, and when My buddy hosts a game I get booted from his server.
Now the other Multiplay missions work just fine, just the random generated Maps for Multiplay do not work for us,I have gone into my modem and opened all the port's according to the game Manuel, am I missing a port that needs to be open ?
================================================== =======
Ports
Outbound TCP Remote Port 3074
Outbound UDP peer to peer ports 3074 - 3174
And ports 19000 - 19002
================================================== =======

The game was a fresh install with the 1.4 patch added, then the new 1.5 patch.

Any suggestions would be appreciated .

Thanks

Umm you two have 'compatible' versions? Same revisions / mods?

Seriously no idea never used MP in SH4 might want to ask in the multiplayer section.

Yes

Both games are Patched the same exactly, if they were not you would not even be able to see one another in the ready Lobby.

We have no problem playing the missions, that are set up with the Multiplayer game, however, the Random Map mission generator for Multiplay does not work properly.
And simply both are version 1.5 installed off a basic game disk, and the Uboat 1.5 patch was added .

no solution but you dont need patch 1.4 anymore, 1.5 patches the game from stock v1.0 to v1.5

I appreciate that
I, myself was able to join a game who did use the random game generator, but my buddy however was not able too, this tends to lead me towards an issue with his install ? or a Port setting ?
Not certain what it is ?
He supposedly opened all the required Ports .

Thanks

I wrote Ubi about this problem but they had no answer.

:hmm: Odd that it worked. Any idea what settings your host was using when he/she succeeded in starting a random game? How many players got into the game? Was the host playing with the patched original version or the Gold version?
