Summary: Falcon 4.0 AF: Multiplayer over Internet not working Product: Wine Version: 1.1.33 Platform: PC OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: matteo.hausner@gmail.com
Although playing via LAN, the internet multiplayer mode of Falcon 4.0 Allied Force is not working as it should. The game says that it "can't resolve the entered address".
I think this bug might be very similar to the internet multiplayer problem of IL-2 Sturmovik. A user on AppDB wrote: "The cause of the problem is, that windows returns the IP address of the network-device if the hostname is resolved, while wine returns "127.0.0.1". So when Sturmovik asks for the IP of "HOSTNAME" it gets only that instead of a valid NIC-IP."
So this one might be an easy one to fix in the end.
