Hi all

I have a ....umm... *slightly* modified game, with a couple of game files modded. I was wondering if this prevents me from logging in to the GameSpy games and finding other KOH players for those single-battle network games? Anyone ever try?

I do manage to connect to GameSpy Arcade... but curiously, I do not see any games listed at all once I get there. In fact, I tried many times logging into GameSpy mode of KOH. But when I arrive at the "game room", it is always an empty list, as if no other KOH player ever exists online to play this game.

Does anyone else have any success playing a modded game (e.g. GoG 1.5) with an online opponent? or does this simply not work at all?

Actually, there are no players online, so GameSpy is not cheating on you.
However, as far as I know, KoH has a build-in validation-system that will not prevent you from entering the game lobby (where you can select your banner and chat with your enemy) but will prevent you from actually fighting the battle with someone who has a different mod.

But I didn't really try GoG in multiplayer. I once unsuccessfully tried together with Elvain though I'm not sure about the reason why it didn't work.
