Corporal Eschebone Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 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. halp plox Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri Omni Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 -Both CH and I are behind routers (not sure about Demitri). Yes I is, and I have forwarded any ports that might be able to be forwarded. Also noone can join my games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effef Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 One of us is not doing something right, we just don't know who. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 What color are your Hamachi connections with the other players? Also, do any of you have the premium trial? That tends to eff things up a bit from my experience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kitty Posted January 25, 2008 Share Posted January 25, 2008 Hmm...well, I'd make sure all your ports are forwarded properly. The fact you ping some people and they can't ping you and vice versa shouldn't be a factor with connectivity in Hamachi. CE, check your search filters if there are options for that. That may be why nothing is working for you in the search option. Does it say anything when CH tries to join CE's games and vice versa?

Corporal Eschebone Posted January 25, 2008 Author Share Posted January 25, 2008 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.

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.

Corporal Eschebone Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 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? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corporal Eschebone Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 http://www.yougetsignal.com/openPortsTool/ This thing tells me that the port is closed for just about any number I put in, even though I'm pretty sure port 80 should work given that I'm able to troll teh internets in the first place.

It doesn't test a range so you'll have to try all 19 of them. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corporal Eschebone Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Goddammit, I forwarded the ports wrong. http://www.portforward.com/english/routers/port_forwarding/Netgear/WNR834B/Joint_Operations_Typhoon_Rising.htm Someone explain to me in simple terms what I'm supposed to do because evidently I have no idea what I'm doing.

Demitri Omni Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I just don't understand why I can see everyone's games, but noone can see mine or each others'. I just tried it again with someone else, and it worked exactly the same as Corp and CH. I'm confused, frankly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Screw you guys, you jinxed my hamachi and now I can't connect to my friend's game. >_< Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corporal Eschebone Posted January 28, 2008 Author Share Posted January 28, 2008 Also, hm... I recognize your SN, Falchion. You're that guy who plays (played?) CyberNations and was in NPO way back in summer '06, right? Do you still play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kitty Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Nah, I quit after GW3 with my epic battles against Legion and some small timers. I left the NPO to join STA but came back to help them in their war. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
