  1. argh it still doesn't work. I definitely forwarded ports 32768-32787 on my router correctly (or at least I really hope so or else I'm a gigantic douchebag), put hamachi at the top of the network adapter bindings, and made 5.0.0.1 hamachi's default gateway and had Demitri do the same. I still can't see his games. CH and others might be able to see my games or I might be able to see theirs, but I really doubt it.

    Anyone know wtf is going on? Or at least how to check if ports are really definitely being forwarded?

  2. There are no search filters, in the LAN screen there is only a box for the screenname, a list of servers (empty before you search), a button for "Search," a button for "Join Game," and a button for "Host Game." There are no networking options for this game.

    Edit: Here is a section from the .cfg file:

    Edit2: I kinda just posted that without even looking at it. I think I know how to fix this now.

    Edit3: To be 100% sure, when forwarding ports, does the service name I give to the range of ports I forward matter? For example, instead of calling it "Joint Ops," I could just call it "Jointops" or "cakeops"? 'Cause I don't know what name to give it otherwise.

  3. Right so me and some dudes (Demitri and CH) are trying to play Joint Operations: Typhoon Rising over Hamachi. I'll be short:

    -Both CH and I are behind routers (not sure about Demitri).

    -I am not behind a software firewall.

    -For me, neither Demitri's nor CH's hosted games show up in the LAN games list (i.e. it's empty when it shouldn't be!)

    -Demitri can join both my and CH's hosted games, but CH and I can't join each other's.

    -Demitri and I can't ping CH, but CH can ping us and we can ping each other.

    -No, there isn't an option to join a specific IP in the LAN games list (there is only a Search option, which doesn't work for me).

    -I followed these instructions as best I could.

  4. Another note, if you're running an nForce4, download the hacked SATA drivers off of the nforcershq forum (the ones that are technically for a newer version of the nforce chipset) and follow the directions there to get your system out of PIO mode and into DMA mode where it belongs.

    Holy crap, I have a DVD burner (HP 840b) that refuses to read DVDs and goes into PIO mode whenever it shits on itself. It's annoying as hell.

    In general whenever a drive is going a lot slower than it really should be, that's the reason for it. I never did fix the DVD burner (as far as I know, I don't try to play DVDs on it anymore), but it's not a big deal since this computer came with a DVD-ROM drive anyway and the DVD burner reads and burns CDs just fine - except the shitty Memorex 52x disks. I'm honestly not sure which company is more to blame here for that - HP or Memorex.

  5. Vaguely speaking, "Size" refers to how big the files are, while "Size on disk" is how much space they actually take up on the disk. Each little file segment has to have it's own little cluster or whatever it's called; if there's a lot of file segments which only take up small portions of clusters then there's going to be a big difference between "Size" and "Size on disk". This also means that depending on cluster size you'd be able to fill up space on a hard drive while only actually using something like 1/8 of the HDD space. Since bitmaps aren't compressed and map every single pixel, they're more prone to this for whatever reason.

    I haven't actually done anything relating to computer science and whatnot in a while, so if this explanation isn't good enough then someone should come around soon enough to give a more in-depth description of what's going on.

    Edit: Jacked by Xerol.

    Edit2: Actually, I think that last statement in the first paragraph may be misleading - It's just that bitmap files of the same resolution would all be the same file size, and if all your bitmaps are like 5k each and you have 4k clusters then each bitmap will take up two 4k clusters.

  6. If you want to see what errors are occurring before the auto reboot you need to disable the "reboot on failure" option in the system. Go into the system settings in control panel and go to the Advanced tab. In there, disable the "reboot on failure" setting. That should halt the system on a critical error screen instead of rebooting and making you wonder what just happened.

    Haha, I don't think he'll even be able to get up to that point from the way he describes his problem.

  7. Yay, I found Darke's website! One less cool musician I'll have to go through this mess of a site to get music from. Now I think I just need GeckoYamori's, if he has one.

    Out of curiosity, are you HamsterCorp?

    I'm pretty sure you're HamsterCorp.
