Yeah.. im trying to play HoMM through hamachi, i created a server on hamachi, and my friend has already joined it but still when i start HoMM and create a server on it he still cant see it.

So my question is, how on earth is it able to get HoMM to work with hamchi so he can join my game.

Network Connections - in the menu - > Advanced -> Advanced Settings..

Under Adapters And Bindings choose hamachi and use arrows to put it on top in the list

Reboot and problem solved.

Wow cool, So maybe they tweaked ghost mode? I really should give it a shot under TOTE..
Not being able to scout opponents territory is great since that ability really ruined alot of the startegy in the game.

Probably it's just the Internet connection, I don't think the hamachi configuration has something to do with this. Playin' HoMM V on-line is hell of a challenge anyway...

i don't think that's it.... both me and my friend have a 2.5MB connection and we played loads of other games and they all worked fine (Company of Heroes,Unreal 3,Supreme Commander+ SC Forged alliance...)

It doesn't look like anyones told you to check this yet so....Are you both running the same version of Hamachi w/o updates? 1.0.1.5

Someone should write a "how to" for hamachi + heroes! Smile

Oh, and can someone tell me in short (because I'm stupid *lol* Party Hat ) what the whole "The game does not support playing through http proxy" means?


quote:
The game does not support playing through http proxy. The player needs direct (real IP) or NATed (most intranets) internet connection.

The following ports need to opened for the router / firewall on a system :

6668 TCP (IRC servers(chat in lobby))
40000 to 42999 TCP (Various Ubi.com servers)
44000 UDP (CDKey servers)
45000 UDP (NAT server)
42500 UDP ( CDKey local port, can be configured by player through game config files, "setvar net_ubi_cdkey_port = <desired port>", defaults to 42500)
8888,8889 UDP UDP (The Game itself, can be configured by player through game config files, "setvar net_game_port = <desired port>" defaults to 8888; "setvar net_lan_match_maker_port = <desired port>", defaults to 8889 )

I had the same problem for a long time. Just switched to Vista and was experiencing the same problem. It's definately a Firewall problem cause I tried disabling it and then everything worked fine. Basically, if you and your friend can ping! each other on Hamachi it will work in TOTE. Set your firewall to allow Hamachi for staters. Then also make sure that both of you have the EXACT same version not just of TOTE/HOMM, but also the map you're playing. If either of you edited the map or dl a different version of it, it won't work. Basically just send your friend the map you're going to play and make sure it's located in the correct folder, i.e. TOTE/maps/...

Hope this helps cause I know how much it sucks.

What does this mean?: Set your firewall to allow Hamachi for staters.

And it's not that we can't find each other on Hamachi, we can even play for a few seconds, but then the connection is dropped? Frown
