Problem Launching Another Computer

Hi again. I've been using a 2 computer layout, and decided to try a 3. The main comp is the new one, with the old main becoming comp 2 and the old comp 2 becoming comp 3. Made some new character sets, but I can't get comp 2 to launch with comp 1. Not even just using two. The character set will launch on comp 2 if actually launched from there, it just doesn't launch when I start up the set on comp 1. Everything is set right as far as "also launch", and comp 3 fires its set fine. Exporting to inner space works fine as well. Anything obvious I may be missing?

Re: Problem Launching Another Computer

Most likely Computer 2 still thinks it is the Main Computer. I would first check whether "Enable Incoming Connections" is allowed under Network Uplinking. It could possibly have a wrong computer name or firewall setting. It could be any number of things.

It may be easiest to shut down Multiple Computer Helper on all 3 computers and restart the configuration from scratch. Stopping and starting Multiple Computer Helper should only affect Key Maps which Target a particular system's slot, for example Computer2.is2.

Re: Problem Launching Another Computer

Thanks for the reply. It occurred to me that, with my previous setup, I'd use the second computer as the main a lot in the course of playing. So I reversed my thinking here and left the old main comp as the one firing the character sets. And it worked. A new problem arose though. I've always used F12 as my follow key, and its no longer working on my main comp. The other comps work fine, though they wont fire any function keys on the main computer either. Every other key works fine, and the setup is identical to the computers that will fire F keys. Only always on and my keymap I've always used are in the keymaps. Any thoughts?

Upon further examination, only the 1 through = keys ares working on comp 1. I've remade the set several times and it just wont use my key map it seems.

Ok, that one was user error. It helps to set up your hotkeys in the game on your new computer! So I'm still launching from comp 2, but everything seems to be working fine now.
