In the pursuit of trying to play retro strategy games with chicken and failing countless times i chanced across this which is a great program that gets past all that annoying TCPIP crap when trying to play said games. it supports a myriad of games old and newish and was incredibly easy to use and i just wanted to share this with those who fancy having an easier time setting up an old school game of AoE for example. If you've heard of this before and/or use it great but it'd be great to share with others too.

kinda sounds like hamachi or tunngle?

i mean it's a vpn right

[Ashington]

Yeah i think so either way its a decent program and me and chicken were able to connect and play even through my awkward router set up (i cant directly access/control my router so i can't do anything about it) which prevented us doing it the normal way and i dunno about hamachi but its quite similar to tunngle.

also i just realised how i phrased it made it sound like it just does strategy games it does fps etc too

hamachi is better imo

it just gives you a fake IP and forces shit to port 80 I believe
