Hi I'm new to YGOPro when ever I run the YGOPro_vs.exe to start the game everything start up fine then when I go to log in. nothing happens it just sits there even when I try to host a game it wont let me. Even when I go to lanmode and I click host I get an error saying the YGOPro has crashed also at the same time my firewall pops up asking for access I have clicked yes but I pops up every time I try to host. If you could plz help me out that be grate thank you. heres my user name Deca48

Do you have an option similar to 'always give this as an answer' when your firewall asks for permission? If so, try checking it.

Hey, Welcome to CEA

You don't need to worry about LAN duels. I'll just explain what I said to another user, and hopefully it will help.

To host a duel, from the main game window select 'Multiplayer'. At the top you can select the server you want to play on. Linux is the automatic match up ranking server. The other 2 allow for custom games and individual hosting. You can pick either Europe or USA, doesn't really matter which, then click the 'Host' button to the right. From here you can put all your settings, all you really need to do is set it to match duel, and put your opponent's name in the 'Host Name' area.

For finding hosted duels... again just go to Multiplayer and chose the server your opponent is hosting on, or any if you're just looking to duel with anyone. Then click 'Refresh'. This will show all the hosted duels on that server along with the host name or any notes.

For the Firewall, just do what Nick said, there's usually an option to always allow a program or put it on the exceptions list.
