Off topic but I wounder if I can get a splitscreen game in a dedicated hosted match.
Yes, in fact it was one of the advertised features. Hosting and joining any games (regardless of network service) allows for splitscreen players in the same session. The local players option isn't avalible in all lobby modes for no reason. ;)
From a technical standpoint, it actually makes no sense not to support it, as the player/node systems are mutually exclusive; A node controls a player, and a player controls a node, but there is nothing that suggests that a node and player are the same thing. In fact a dedicated server is a node with no players, so splitscreen is just a node with multiple players.

If it's putting you back to the main menu there must be an error message at least in the console. See what it's saying there to understand what's wrong. But my guess is that your in developer mode. To test maps in multiplayer you must make sure you are not in developer mode (developer 0)
Him being in developer mode seems to be the case (at least it makes sense with the symptoms). Normally an error message shows up, but because of another bug fix the error message is being removed before it's displayed. Thanks for bringing that to my attention.

Note that you can play multiplayer while in developer mode, just not network multiplayer. Local splitscreen will work and can even be launched using the testsplitscreen CCMD (2 optional args, # local players and a map to load, so "testsplitscreen 4 levels/mp/city-4.map" will start a 4 local-player game on that map).

All the devices are on a local area network and all have developer mode enabled. Can't wait to get home to test this out. Splitscreen sounds intresting. Off topic but I wounder if I can get a splitscreen game in a dedicated hosted match.

Wow I can't thank you guys enough. Progress will go so fast once I get home and solve this presumably by turning developer mode off. Thanks alot edward. And bp

I place two DMplayerstart actors onto a custom map that's uv'ed with walkable spaces for the players. I start the server up with the params pointing at the map lineup including my map and another time just my map.

when I go to connect to the server it insta sends me back to the main menu.

anyone know how I can fix this so I can move onto both learning the multiplayer inviroment and testing my maps i have already created in a multiplayer inviroment?

how come it insta sends me to the main menu when I try to connect?

any advice will help I thank you very much for any of your replys.

edit: no error logs, no messages, just backs me out to the main menu screen...
