PlayWang / Multiplayer

[tons0phun]

Hello,

I have recently rediscovered my love for playing Shadow Warrior. I was never on TEN or M-Player. I just like playing the game.

Recently I've tried to find ways of playing multiplayer; my best bet so far seems to be with ProAsms PlayWang.
www.proasm.com/sw/playwang.html

It says that it can be configured to allow for multiple players...but so far I've only been able to join/host games with 2 people.

Has anybody had issues with this before? Or know of an application that -readily- provides multiplayer?

Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Hey tons0phun,

I'm not currently aware of a Shadow Warrior source port which supports "join in game", like most modern games of today.
However, in combination with SWP, JFSW and/or DOS SW, you can use a multi-player front-end shortly known as YANG, which stands for Yet Another Netplay Guider.

Note that for getting DOS SW to run, you need the DOSBox emulator, and of course a hardware capable of running DOS SW in the emulator with a desirable frame rate.
