What exactly means "i cannot create game", does the game crash, or give you an error?
Or your friends cant connect to the game?

reminds me of old warzone 2100 gamespy settings. it wasn't possible to host with a router forwarding. kinda nasty if 2 or more pc's wanted to host silly things. back then netmeting even was big. don't ask me why ;).

:rolleyes:

There is a lobby server.
You must have ports 9996-9999 open, on the router, and your firewall.

Once you hit the 'host' button, it connects to the lobby server, and then you must wait (& wait, & wait). When somone sees your game, they can join.
Wait times are from 5 mins to 5 days. O_o


This is why you should use xfire, or something like that, far easier to get a game going that way.

Do you have a firewall? How fast is the modem? 28.8k? 56k?
I am not even sure it is playable on a modem with more than 1 other person.

9997-9999 are enough :) Maybe even lesser, would have to test out..

I would want other Ports though - a Chat-Program i am using, uses 9998 too.. and this isn't changeable - Company doesn't exist anymore and almost all Chat-Servers on the World would have to change their Port too..

Would be kind of funny if Warzone used port 2100.
