I will be hosting 2nite after I finish work sometime around midnight eastern....
also there is a poll on the DerbyKing thread for which track to hold the tournament...
And OHH, I have a number of requests on how u got ddf8 working on your windows8, if you did anything or had someone do something to get it to work. Also, I will open your ports if needed.

Madmax I just went into here and clicked the links and downloaded them I put them all on my desktop the had to open them and extract them and put the car files where they went and tracks the same way it's hard to explain if someone needs help I could probably be able to take control of there computer like u did mine and I can do it for them idk just an idea let me know what u think I don't even know where to go to open the port if u do I'll let u take control of mine for u to open them

Here is windows 8 firewall , add program and port information www.tomshardware.com/faq/id-1656366/options-windows-firewall.htmlHere are the DDF8 ports to be opened,and I would imagine it will be similar to windows7 www.strassman.info/demoderby/forum/index.php?topic=170.0Also of importance will be having no anti virus running prior to online play..... With regards to other WIndows8 users, the game has been an easy install, just like you described, however , everyone up until you , have had problems with the speed of the Frames per second. VERY VERY VERY Slow and well documented on other games as well. SO perhaps you have your windows8 installed differently at factory or its had updates sinces windows8 was first released... Regardless its a great breakthrough. I will be online 2nite around midnight eastern.. if you are up.

I will leave the host computer running
make sure you open BOTH TCP and UDP for BOTH INCOMING AND OUTGOING!!!! I think that is why you could join but not host last time.
ALSO, MAKE SURE YOU HAVE NO ANTI VIRUS RUNNING as it will block game
I don't know if windows8 has other internal security/scanners that has to be addressed
I am in and out and around for the next 1.5 hours then I head off to work.
