## Revision as of 01:49, 3 June 2013

Until the client-server rewrite is complete, EDuke32-OldMP is required for multiplayer.

YANG (Yet Another Netplay Guider) is recommended for Internet play.

## Modern Client/Server Multiplayer

EDuke32 multiplayer is broken indefinitely in current versions. Try old versions instead.

### To start a multiplayer server

At the command prompt, run the command:

    eduke32 -server

By default servers listen on port UDP 23513.

Clients will then connect with

    eduke32 -connect <server IP>

Note: You will probably have to change the default console key in keyboard options to something else because "pause" just pauses the game and does not open console.

### Server table

We can list servers here in future when Server/Client is more stable. :)

Server Name | Max Players | IP:Port | Status | IRC Server/Channel
--- | --- | --- | --- | ---
N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A | N/A

## Old-Style Master/Slave or Peer-to-Peer Multiplayer

Since new multiplayer code is broken, you can use the last version of EDuke32 to contain the old code in the meantime.

Required version: http://dukeworld.duke4.net/eduke32/synthesis/old/20091203-1551/

Documentation for the command-line parameters is available here: http://static.jonof.id.au/modsuppt/jfduke3d/releasenotes.html
