How do I log-on for Multiplayer?

[RTW King]

I've never played MP RTW before. How do I log-on? Heres exactly what I did:

1. Typed in the CD key into change CD as it used to say it was invalid
2. Went to log-on, changed player name to rtwking, but it said log-in failed.

What do I need to do to play MP?

You need a valid CD Key. Any reason as to why your cd key is invalid? If it's all legal, then you want to contact CA or somethng.

Yes its all legal. I made a mistake when typing it in first time. Forgot to put the dashes inbetween each section. The CD Keys now fine, but now it says log-in failed when I type in my name. Do I need to do something to register for multiplayer. I did install Game Spy.

I think you need to register a user with gamespy, im not sure tho. But try it.

[Lord Preston]

not so, i can change my name everytime i log in if i wished.

check your firewalls to see if RTW is allowed to connect to the internet/act as server

[Sjakihata]

yes, I can change my name as well, I just know you needed to register with mtw and shogun
