Franpa, if you want to play DOOM on a random internet server, I suggest you try Skulltag!

Ok, now onto the new games proven to work over Hamachi list:

Warcraft 2-Tides of Darkness
Red Alert 2
Open Transport Tycoon Deluxe(in case I haven't mentioned it before)

I will be using it next week and would like to know if NFS 2 SE or nfs High Stakes would work as i would like to play them against other people but their not on the list of games to work on hamachi.

I don't own the original copys of either(heck! I don't even have HS) so I can't tell you for sure if they will work or not... so, you can't know till you try it Shit-Eating Grin

But, I repeat myself, you can't play NFS over Hamachi alone, you need to set up the game with somebody else!

How would i do that.

Larry Laffer · Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2007 11:17 am Post subject:

Well, you join a network(say, the DGF one) and you talk to one or more of the members, if any want to take you on on a NFS game, if he/they say yes, you go on, start a server and play!

I can join the nfs network but i highly doubt anyon their would want to play nfs 2 SE but almost everyone their would want to play nfs high stakes. What is the DGF network called.

You know, if Larry Laffer would let anyone else into his usergroup, you guys would realize we've already created a private forum for discussing and planning games.

What the hell, I'll be Larry for a while and let you guys in... (Sorry Larry)

Yeah, Larry, you need to go to "Usergroups" at the top of the page. Since you're a group moderator, you have to manually accept people to the group. =)

Thanks for all your help.

Larry Laffer · Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2007 12:53 pm Post subject:

Yeah, sorry bout that, it's not that I didn't know that(I got Wormie in didn't I?), it's just that I completely forgot to check my email from time to time Tbbbbbth!

[edit] and now that all this is out of the way, how did you feel being Larry DB? Laughing

Dogbreath · Posted: Sat Jan 06, 2007 12:55 pm Post subject:

I made Ro@m the moderator for the actual forum, with Larry still being the Group Mod, since they seem to be the two who care about it most. Now ~~jack up your post count~~ create intelligent and thoughtful discussion, dang it!

Aye,aye Capt....Admin! Congratulatory

I'm thinking about opening a topic in that new forum called 'Honor the one who brought Hamachi to this forum' cause you know, narcism isn't that bad. Sometimes. Tbbbbbth!

Who's going to post a complete faq there? I'll discuss further there.

erm... there is no honor to the Lazy you know... Tbbbbbth!
