Author Topic: Can't port forward?  (Read 544 times)

You can't portforward? You wanna play with your friend anyway? Here's the solution, VPN!

Hamachi
Go to https://secure.logmein.com/US/products/hamachi2/download.aspx
Tick Conditions of Use at the bottom, and press Download Now, at Unmanaged
When a window prompts you, press Open or Run, when the file has downloaded, press Open or Run.
A installer should start, at preferred language, select 'English'. A small piece of text will appear, click Next. Follow the guide as normally.
When finished (restart maybe needed), start Hamachi. You should see a logo, a menu, a power button, a 0.0.0.0 IP and other stuff. Click the Power button. You will now be prompted what you want to be called on networks. Hamachi will now initialize. Repeat this process on all computers that need to connect to your server.
The person that should host, goes to Network > Create a new network...
Specify a network name and a password so random people can't connect.
Everybody that need to join the server, has to go to Network > Join an existing network...

The hoster must now go in Peekarica, press Start a Game, set the port to 6060, tick Host Multiplayer, and press Launch Mission.
The hoster must look right to the Hamachi Power button, there is a IP, write it down.
When the hoster spawned, everyone else shall open their console by pressing the [~] key on their keyboard, and type this:
connect("<the ip you writed down>:6060");

Please note that people's names will be 'Poser', but you can still play your small killmatches as normally.

Note : All Credits Go To
Bauklotz


connect("<the ip you writed down>:6060");
Or you can just go to the Join a Game menu and click Connect by IP.

But with Hamachi you can talk personally to someone

Edit:Whisper mod is not published and i dont think it will be so better use hamachi
