original SimHQ thread..

now weve started to use this we are now able to conn to servers that previously we couldn't.

 

now i know theres HL ect but i thought this might help out with squad training if some peeps have prob's conning,i know u link up by ip ect(theres a chat feature in it as well)

 

It can also be used for peer to peer but u can select if u require that feature on install.

 

like i said..someone might be interested ;)

Hamachi is good, but can be a bit of a security risk, specially since it enables share browsing on missconfigured systems.

 

that said it's a great way to trick games into thinking they are on a LAN while they are actually over the internet :)

i'm sure u can disable the filesharing feature on installation tho..i installed this morning nursing a massive hangover! :cry:

I've used Hamachi with Falcon AF and found that it drops players if theres more than 3 sometimes.
