                                                                                    -----------------
(Q & ANS):

Q.1. In some levels you may see that your friend has spawned but you see that he can't move ,(because your friend is actually seeing black screen or space at that time) like in levels 'Outskirts' or 'Metamorpolis'.other such maps like Cairo Station , Sacred Icon(maybe) ,GraveMind , High Charity ,etc.

Ans. Those maps will not work .

Q.2. Sometimes also if your playing with 2 or more players you will see that the green(friend) indicator is outside the level . 

Ans. So here you have to use "Blu Trainer 3.11"download from internet, Run it as an administration and press 'ALT + Enter' to spawn them near you.

Q.3. Your friends may complain that they cannot see their hud or weapon while playing .

Ans. i don't know how to fix this  so here they/you can also play in 3rd person mode using Ambigous Alpha 2.5 (press 3)or Blu Trainer 3.11(press 4).

                                                                                   ----------------
1.Remember if your friend dies ,go towards the checkpoint closest to you  to spawn him{As fast as possible} becasuse if everybody has died then you will crash as the coop mode is not yet completed 
properly so you will experiance few bugs in this. Then you have to re-host it! to play again.

But then also ENJOY!!! with others .....

if you have any other problems then message me while I am play online or offline ,i will read it........
