2.1 - Using Hamachi - If your hosting**
****************************************




You will then be displayed with this box



Once you've made up a network name and password you'll need to give this to the other people who are joining then get them to read the next section.

It didn't appear for Harman and I either so I just entered the IP from Hamchi and it worked fine.

If you can't join the host, then the person hosting the game has either:
  • Not opened the required ports

  • Has a different patch or DB to the one you have

  • Or has not ticked 'run as sever'

re: Network Games FAQ

I seriously need help:

I wanted to start a new game with my mate so i wnet onto network and ticked run as server and then started a game.

I then gave him my i.p address and he typed it in but no matter what it just says 'unable to connect to server'?

Ino that its something to do with forwarding ports but how do i do this, the website that i found doesnt have my router?

Also does the other person need to forward thiers?

Please help
