when the zone MTM2 room is gone, we are all heading to the direct play area, which allows you to host a number of games, including MTM2. The URL looks like this:
http://zone.msn.com/en/root/cdclassic.htm you click the Direct Play at the bottom, and there u find the MTMers setting there, waiting for the show to start.
One positive in the lan room, is in general, only those that have the game you want to host a room for can join your room.
I did find a registry entry to Trick the zone into thinking you have a supported game. This will not cause the game room to auto launch but it allows access to host a room.
I made a launcher utility for Xpand Rally that sets the registry to let you in using the Xpand Rally name. Players can at least separate into race rooms this way and then use the copy and paste function of my utility to launch. If someone hasn't done this edit they can't join your race room.
I'm hosting a tourney Feb 19th in the Lan room to see how it works out.
