Both he and I have configured our firewalls just fine (and the game is using TCP/IP, so the lack of IPX support in Vista 圆4 shouldn't make a difference).Ĭan anyone play System Shock 2 multiplayer in Vista 圆4? If so, how? Cause this is driving me nootz. When he hosts a game, I can't detect/find his game and when I try join his game it ends up with a 'Failed' message at the top of the screen. When trying to host, I need to wait for other players to join before I can start the game.but my friend cannot connect. My friend (using XP) can host a game and, most likely, be able to join one.įor some reason, I cannot host and I cannot join a game.at all. If a mod would like to erase the above post, then please feel free (don't want to add any extra cluttering in the forum )Ī friend and I have been in the mood to play System Shock 2 multiplayer.

Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't, so keep on trying.I'd made this post, initially, in the PC Gaming Section (completely forgetting that there was a PC Gaming Support section.sorry dudes). Tip: Try disabling the firewall if you or your friend can't connect.Have some problems with connection via 3G or 4G USB modem.Up to 5 free players, although you can host multiple Networks and have more players connect.(If there are any letters in the IP, you have the IPv6 address. You should now have something like #.#.#.#:# as your IP. Paste the IP in to the server address box along with the 5 digit port number distributed by the host (#).Copy the host's IPv4 address (Click on their name in Hamachi and click "Copy IPv4 Address").Go to "Multiplayer" on the main menu and either click "Add a server" or "Direct connect".Distribute the 5 digit port number that will appear in the chat window to the other players this can be done over Hamachi's chat window or another chat method.(#).Set the options and open the LAN network.Hit Escape and Select the Open to LAN button.Get your friends to join your Hamachi network.You can setup a Hamachi LAN which allows people in your Hamachi network to connect to your LAN server via Hamachi connection. If you are experiencing this bug, follow the steps listed. I hope that helps, I was extremely infuriated that I had to use 3rd party programs to play, but, we did get it to work. 2.1 Note: This bug has since been fixed. You need to highlight your buddies name under Hamachi and see his virtual IP that is made for him (if he's going to host the game) and use that IP to connect to him via in-game.
