Hey, me and my bro and friend are tryin to play dawn of war dark crusade over internet through either Direct Host, or LAN over Hamachi, but we can't get either to work.
Me and my bro are behind the same router, and my friend is behind another router, but he has an external address assigned to his computer.
With direct host, whenever all three of us are in the same server, with anyone of us hosting, one of the clients gets dropped.
So person 1 hosts, 2 can join and play, but when 3 joins, either 2 or 3 gets dropped...
And with Hamachi, we've got it set up right (we can view eachothers shared files), but my friend cant see my server, and i cant see his server (guys on actual can see and join server).
I read the sticky where it said Hamachi was incompatible, but i didnt know if that was old or not and if it was 'fixed' in the latest patch. If so, is there ANY other way that we can play online besides using GameSpy service?
Thanks
*EDIT* Oh yea, forgot to mention, ive tried forwarding port 6112 to one of my computers, but didnt change much. And the DOW net test returns:
Sending udp packet from 6112 to 6112
Received from /66.134.89.xxx:6112 to 6112 "NAT detected"
