okay, are you playing the stock game??

Be sure you aren't joining a KM 1.0 server...

It should be clearly identified.

KM, or Kobayashi Maru, is a Multiplayer mod that combines quite a lot of ships and other scripts and ensures that the entire set will work correctly in multiplayer.


Basically, everyone in a multiplayer game needs to have the same files, of everything (except textures and sounds!).

it should install just like KM, but keep in mind, if you install that too, you cannot join KM matches, because the files aren't the same anymore.

that's because it isn't in the PDF.. it's in the readme.rtf file...

the ports you want are 22101 and 28900 for both incoming and outgoing traffic.
