Problem with starting the MP game in LAN mode

[vpp00708]

Hi,
I have downloaded and installed the client & server (Windows) in my Vice City folder. Then starts the server (changed the LAN mode = 1) and using the client, I have tried connecting to the server. But it shows the splash screen (the first screen that game show before the main menus) and then exits the game automatically.

How to solve this issue ?

Thanks

You don't need the server to use multiplayer. Is everything installed properly?

Where exactly does your game crash?

-While the GTAVC pink bar is loading?
-or, While it says "Connecting to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx..."
??

If the game crashes at the pink bar, then the problem is with your GTAVC.

Make sure you do not have any mods installed in GTAVC.
If you are using a No-CD crack, try a different crack.
Re-Install GTAVC, Re-install VCMP in the GTAVC dir.
Also make sure you are using v1.0 of GTAVC

If it's a pinkbar issue - make sure you don't have more than 1 GTAVC process open.
