Re: Does TCP/IP work now?
Ugh! Fyron and I tried desperatly to get it to work...but to no avail. I must admit it is a little complicated. I think the problem was that he had a firewall.
Would anyone without a firewall like to attempt to try a tcp/ip game with me...just send me an e-mail at capt-kwok@rogers.com. I'm curious to see if that was the problem or not.
Thanks! |

I don't know what we did to get it going. I know it was tough and took a few days to finally get it. But it's been so long that I forgot what exactly we did. Sorry man.

Re: Does TCP/IP work now?
Your firewall has to pass ports 6716 and 6720 for tcp/ip tp be able to connect.

Re: Does TCP/IP work now?
Well, first of all, running IIRC:
-My firewall was NOT SE4's friend. I had to disable Zonealarm.
-The game must have a name, and BOTH players need the name, which *must* be typed identically. If it's not, it Will Not Work.
-the game host is automaticlly included in the game
those were the really obvious problems we had..

That is going to depend entirely on your firewall. For me it's a router and I had to read the router manual and figure out how to get it to allow those ports by. Some firewalls are software based, but the principle is the same. You are going to have to do a little research about your particular flavor of firewall and figure out how to configure it.
