I recently purchased Rome Total War: Gold via the Mac App Store on OS X Lion. I have had a lot of fun playing the single player campaign.

However, when I try to access multiplayer to battle against my friends by going to Multiplayer → LAN Battles, I get to enter my player name, but after that the game freezes for a short while and an error appears:

Failed to connect to LAN

The error occurs in the normal version as well as in Barbarian Invasion. My friend (on a Windows machine) does get into the lobby after entering his player name.

I disabled all and any firewalls and antivirus but I can't seem to solve the problem. How can I fix this error?

  • Even feral-interactive is having trouble discovering the issue.

  • Unfortunately no, if I remember correctly it had something to do with combining windows/macos versions.

  • Can you traceroute the connection to the LAN host? Perhaps settings on your router are preventing (packet filtering, forwarding, etc) transit?
