LAN Multiplayer problems in Empire: Total War on Mac
I am trying to play Empire: Total War Gold Edition (purchased on the Mac App Store) on two different Macs (one with 10.9.5 and one with 10.8.5) using the Local Multiplayer feature of the game.
Whenever we try to launch a sea battle, we are able to select our ships, and go the battle, where we are able to position our ships, but when we try to start the battle, we are prompted with an error of a desync (I don't know the exact wording).
The only solution I have found after Googling around for over an hour was to mirror the graphics settings between the two installs, which we did (on multiple presets). We are also running the same screen resolution, and are both signed out of Game Center.
Any suggestions to fix this?
