Are you trying to play local or online co-op? What happens when you try to start co-op?

I tried both but I couldn’t get online to work and the local button is disabled. Hosting works fine but I have problems when trying to join.

That's weird. The local button should be enabled if you have a gamepad connected.

Did you and your brother create a network with Hamachi? Did the client copy the IPv4 address from the host and paste in the game? The first time you host a game the firewall might ask you to allow it. Did that happen?

Yes we have tried it and yes the firewall did show but only to my brother (of course he accepted). We tried hamachi and we copied the IPv4 address but when we entered it and pressed join or whatever nothing happened

Hmm what happens if you both try another port? Perhaps something higher than the default value.

Cindy0994 years ago

We have tried using other ports but it still does the same thing.

And if you skip Hamachi and instead set up port forwarding in the router and then use your normal ip found on https://www.whatismyip.com/ ?

Well that’s one of our problems, neither of us know how to set up port forwarding. But we can try I guess

We managed to get multiplayer working but we think the camera needs improving (see image)

Hi I'm having problems hosting a game and playing co-op with my friend. Could you explain how you did it?
