I opened an issue upstream for 64-bit multiplayer. https://github.com/diasurgical/devilutionX/issues/191 I managed to get 0.4.0 to work with TCP multiplayer on amd64. I have attached it here in case you want to test against it. The two main diffs are: * patch-SourceX_dvlnet_frame_queue_cpp * patch-Source_msg_cpp These deal with 64-bit issues. In particular, msg.cpp cleans up some pointer arithmetic where there happened to be padding. frame_queue.cpp copies from a 32-bit type to a 64-bit type. These diffs have to be removed when building for i386, so perhaps some macros and platform detection need to be added. I briefly tried merging my work against the git version, but I ran into a segfault and haven't had time to investigate a possible regression. Testing should focus on the git head version that you posted, and you should have the final say on 0.4.0 vs git head. Git head has had many fixes. In testing the git head version: amd64: * TCP dialog box saying "unable to create game" * UDP terminating with uncaught exception of type std::__1::system_error: send_to: Socket is already connected i386: * TCP player 2 successfully connects to player 1 * UDP same socket error > > OK? > > ~Brian
