Re: Question about TCP/IP in SE5
If you are playing over the internet you are going to need to use IP forwarding on the host computer. The other player(s) will need to connect to the internet IP of the host computer. If the players are connecting to an IP that starts with 192.168.x.x they are connecting to the wrong one.

Re: Question about TCP/IP in SE5
May we use selfchosen ports, or are they predetermined in SE5?
Edit: Is there anywhere a FAQ about multiplayer-games?

Re: Question about TCP/IP in SE5
Well, in the meantime, someone told me, in the current version, the game cannot be played directly over the net using TCP/IP.
Hoping for the Future.

Re: Question about TCP/IP in SE5
It can be played "directly;" you just have to remove any end-user routers from the picture. Obviously this is not a very good solution...

Re: Question about TCP/IP in SE5
Hamachi works quite well. I haven't had any problems actually connecting with TCP/IP in SE5 using Hamachi.

Re: Question about TCP/IP in SE5
As I write this, no one has added anything to the Wiki about TCP/IP.
This thread at spaceempires5.com has TCP/IP instructions. (ignore the section header; it was posted in the wrong forum and hasn't been moved.)
