WR2 Multiplayer Tutorial

World Racing 2 is still playable online, without addon lounges etc.
So, what you mainly need to play it online?

1) Tunngle:
*LINK*
2) Stock "MP Lounge 2" application

Download Tunngle from the official site, make sure it's the last updated version.
After you've installed Tunngle, reboot your PC.
Then, make an account (it's free).
When you have created your own account, on Tunngle, search for a room, in the left corner.
Search for "World Racing 2", then join in.
After you joined the room, make sure your friends who are going to play with you are inside your same room (remember, maximum 6 players are able to play together in WR2).
Then, open MP Lounge 2, and start a LAN (Local) game.

You can play in every room, not forced to use the World Racing 2 room, so if the WR2 room is full you can still play in every other room, for example... "ArmA 2" room :D you will still be able to play online, the important thing is that players have to stay in the same room.

Enjoy!

Tried this method with 8 different players, and worked with all of them, so maybe the only problem you can encunter are open/closed ports.

I want to thank my dear friend "BiggBoss93" who told me about Tunngle, and tried with me to play WR2 online!

FAQs/Troubleshooting
made by "FreddyDaimler"

- I can’t see a hosted game in the MP Lounge 2
Windows Firewall should allow both the MP Lounge and tunngle access in private and public networks. Also antivirus software must be disabled completely (game-mode might still block connections). If this still doesn’t work try to run MP Lounge 2 in compatibility modes.

- I have all the addon cars but can’t join the game
You probably have modified your addon cars or have a different version of it. Download the newest one and reinstall it.

- I see a different track than the other players
Open the WR2 Manager and select the addon tracks you want to be driving on only or it will cause a mismatch. All players should have activated the exact same tracks and sceneries.

Now you know how to play WR2 Online
Have fun! :)

Cheers,
A.G.
