DAMIAN91 Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 Put 127.0.0.1(connects to yourself) for your server IP. Give your IP to others for them to join... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BJack Posted August 19, 2005 Share Posted August 19, 2005 if your connection is shared by router you have to use a port forward for port 5192 to the local IP of that pc on your network if you want other people to play online Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
