Hello, I'm new in this forum, and i have a question... I've been trying to play ra2 with the dsl 2.1 patch in multpilayer mode and tells me I can only play with standard parts, have any solution?

Thnks

do you mean the stock dsl components.
if so then the reason for this is that if your using a custom component that you have downloaded then your opponentmight not have it and it will crash their game if they dont so to prevent this they wont allow you to use custom components online.

but it is to play n lan with my brother, and both have the dsl patch

do either of you have a custom component installed.

Some stock DSL parts are counted as custom, there is a way of enabling custom parts for online play but I forgot how.

uhm, only with the dsl patch then you can play? without custom components...

fabo27631 · « **Reply #6 on:** December 18, 2009, 12:04:52 PM »

any way to fix it has to exist ... some cheat or something

if you are using custom components make sure your brother has the same components as you.

also try going to options and status messages and turn it off.
that might work for getting rid of the message.

I use the custom component that has the dsl 2.1, and my brother the same ...
I try what you said and did not work

Yeah, you both have to have the same arena/components or it will crash.

but I can't choose the robot to play before starting the game

He isnt crashing, he is getting the, Custom components are not allowed online, message. To allow them you ned to change a line in a file that i jsut dont remember, it was RA2.cfg or something like that. And i dont remember what line it was but you need to change the 0 to 1 on that line. I think the line was AllowCustomComponents or something similiar.

ahh
@fabo27631
open up RA2.cfg with notepad and scroll down till you see this line
AllowNonStandardMultiplayer=0
change that line to this
AllowNonStandardMultiplayer=1
and see if it works.
if it doesnt change it back.
