Has anyone encountered this before? I have 4 machines on a private network through a switched hub. I can play ms hearts with 3 other players over the network when i use windows 98 on all the machines but not when i use winxp on all the machines.
Are there any specific network protocols needed to play it? I start the ms hearts game and there is no option to play as dealer and host the game or join a game. Any ideas? |
I just have a network and I really want to know how too

I am not 100% sure, but I think the XP version of MS Hearts is an "updated" version and does not allow you to play multi-player. I only say this because it seems that a lot of "Internet" games come standard on an XP install these days. Internet Hearts, Internet Spades, Internet Checkers... etc. I would go with playing the 98 version :D I wonder if you can copy the hearts file from a 98 machine over to an XP machine and have it work like we are all use to.. with multiplayer support :D

I still haven?t found a way of doing this yet. the only other thing I did not try was installing 2k server on one machine and trying it then. I ended up grabbing a program called "Championship Hearts Pro" which works perfectly over the network.
