HAMACHI - SETTING IT UP

1) What is Hamachi?
Well, basically, it is a program that allows users to, over the internet, connect to a local LAN server that you create. Example: I create a local server in BF2, anyone who joins the network that I create (it is password protected) can then join my server via BF2 over the "Internet".

2) How does it work?
Erm, no idea. I dont care either. All I know is that it does work

3) How do I set it up?
a) First of all you need to download and install the Hamachi program from HERE. I would recommend the free version as it does what we need it to do. Although you can buy it if you want

b) After installing the program, open it up. You should be presented with a screen like this:

The "(IP Address)" will be your Hamachi IP address. By default, this will say 0.0.0.0. To obtain one, click the "power button" (bottom left).
You will then be asked for an account name. Just use your forum name so that we know who is who. Once this is complete, an IP address will appear at the top.

c) Now, you have to join our network. As this is BF2s, yes, we have our own BF2s network that has been set up. Since this was set up by RDMC (AFAIK), I wont be handing out the network name/password in this topic. I will PM it to all members who are participating in the movie work.

But, I will explain how to join it.
First of all, click the "Create or Join Networks" button (bottom right there are two icons, its the one on the left of these two) and then click "Join an Existing Network".
You should have a window appear like this:

Fill in the network name and password (as supplied via PM) and click Join.

Voila! You should now be in our network, looking similar to below:

All you have to do now, is keep Hamachi open, launch BF2 and join the local server that the game will find in the server list.


See, it is THAT easy! And thats why Gary can do it (yes, bitch!)
We've used this in the past to play Zero Hour and test the Tampa mod so we know that it works.


If you are still having problems, refer to the Hamachi User Guide


if you are participating in the movie work this week, post here so I know who to PM the connection details to
(or I can get Speilberg Jnr to do it )

What? Huh? Hey! No "hehe" only! Do we get a huge, closed city with shitty walls (South Park ^TM) or what?
