You don’t need Hamachi (unless you want internet tournaments) Thanks a lot to the forum members at BSG Online Games. You should be able to mesage/create/ join games in RA2 now. Last step: Open up Hamachi’s preferences > Status >Connection Detailed Configuration. If you are using a router, this is the most important part: you need to do portforwarding for hamachi.If you don’t, you will only be able to see other people’s nick names but not able to message/create/join games in the RA2 lobby. And for your IPX properties, put the following:
Edit serial key tiberian sun lan install#
The later versions seem rather buggy.įrom the picture, you can see that you have to Install NWLink IPX/SPX/Netbios protocol for your Hamachi network interface.
Edit serial key tiberian sun lan Patch#
I’ve been stuck with this problem for a long time.Īfter installing RA2, get the patch from the following website and install this patch. This is meant to help all those who can see names in the Red Alert 2 lobby, but unable to message/create/join games. In my case my original RA2 cd-rom didn’t work, but after removing it and installing an “illegal” version downloaded from the internet it worked! Probably due to the fact that it’s a “fresh” Red Alert 2 installation. That is a last resort, only if you have a software glitch somwhere that doesnt allow RA2 to recognise the new IPX configuration.
Under frame type, select 802.3, or experiment with 802.2 or ether II. Now select properties of this new protocol.How to: start – settings – Network and dial up connections – right_click on the network device – properties.Ī new window will show up with a list of services and protocols. (anything from a crossover to a router to a switch to wireless everything will work) Install IPX protocol, on the nextwork device that will allow networking.It’s even more fun to play it against a human opponent.
