    multiplayer in game problem

    let me start explaining step by step.

    i connect to multiplayer, i make a room, wait for someone to join. i can pick a song but if i load before they do it automatically starts playing the song, plus on top of that i only shows the single player screen instead of the two split screens showing player 2. if i wait for them to load first and i load second we start at the same time but still it only shows the screen as if it was single player. when the match is over i can continue to the next screen to start another song but the second player cannot. which forces them to leave the room and rejoin just to play another song against me. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME EVERYGAME so don't tell me its something to do with the server because this has happened to me before in the past.

    i have deleted all lfash files and temp internet files, removed flash completely and reinstalled everything from IE to the FFR files when you load the site.

    the only thing i have found to fix this issues is a complete format and reinstallation of windows but im not going to go through all of that anytime time soon and was hoping someone on the forums could explain this.

    if the issue cannot be resolved i will just have to put up with people calling me a hacker because FFR is fubar'd and won't let them get unstuck.

    are you playing a game with nobody in the room to start each and every time? that's your problem. loading songs before a 2nd person is in the room will create major issues when trying to play with other people.

    be patient and wait for someone to enter, then pick and load your song together.

      Maybe try Firefox? Or when you make a room do not click on a song unless they enter, then see what happens.

          if it works fine on 2 comps, but not on the 3rd... then it's an issue with the computer. potentially a firewall issue on that comp?
