Hi

I'm trying to play anno 1602 with a friend of mine on a LAN.

If i create the game, my friend can connect to it without any problems. When i start the game, we can both choose our flag and start the game. Once the game has begun, it works perfect for me but my friend doesn't see any islands anywhere (i even saw his boat pass trough ground like it was water) and eventually his game crashes.

When he creates the game, i can join the game without problems but when he starts it (with any mode) my game crashes before we can see the "choose flag" screen.

If anyone can hel pe i would be very grateful :)

By "create" I assume you mean "host", is that right?
If you really mean create then remember that both of you must have the same .szm file in your 1602 folders. Multiplayer works more smoothly if you both make sure you have videos turned off, also you may need to turn off any firewalls.
