Liam Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 goto: http://www.hamachi.cc/download create your own network & password and give it to your opponent, he has to download Hamachi to. Both logged on and in, the Network Owner can now host with a stupid router Now do I get a cookie? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubert Cater Posted May 1, 2006 Share Posted May 1, 2006 Interesting link Liam, hopefully players will find this useful (as an alternative) when attempting to setup network games with a router. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CharonJr Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Yup, but the key is that the OWNER has to host the game. When the "guest" tries it fails CharonJr 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xanos Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 So only the person that is the host of hamachi can create games? I have problems trying to play online with others, but have this program already; so will this mean that I always have to host the game or can i be the one that "connects" to the host? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, The Hamachi Host, the one who created the Network must Host the Game for the client the player that uses his network. The program assigns those of us behind routers a usable IP address that can be recognized by games like Strategic Command2 and MANY others. Anyone can be a Host now behind a router 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timskorn Posted May 30, 2006 Share Posted May 30, 2006 Just used this tonight and it worked really well, very quick and easy to set up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BioWizard Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 For some time, I couldn't TCP/IP with Hamachi. I and my opponents were showing yellow status on the SC2 network. Iron Ranger just looked to see if him and I had the same version of Hamachi and that wasn't the case. He was .56 and I was .60. So, make sure you all update your version to the latest, updated around the beginning of July. Also, regarding what Liam said: (Yes, The Hamachi Host, the one who created the Network must Host the Game...), that does not seem to be necessary as Iron and me are playing together without having created the SC 2 network. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vector Posted November 11, 2006 Share Posted November 11, 2006 never worked for me either. Asked BOTH players for the allied password. Someone posted and says this is a bug. Either way I have never been able to host. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Liam Posted December 6, 2006 Author Share Posted December 6, 2006 Strange guys, worked me about 10-15 players so far as I've seen. You have to install the program Hamachi, have the other player install it as well. Create a Network, have him join your network. Then you join with the IP that Hamachi provides through that Network. If you do not understand perhaps I can give you a demonstration, give me your IP and I'll see what I can do the next time you're on-line. I have never had an issue so far... Remeber both have to be logged in, it's much like filesharing program but directly between you and those you choose Originally posted by waltero: Never worked for me:( 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
