Andy H Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 As I have already said you joining someone elses game won't help out you out. You need someone to try and join your game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoMan10 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I am gonna help him out if I can. If he has properly portforwarded then it may just be a firewall thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazcollo Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 I know that if I join a game I don't need to have portforwarded but if I try and join his game and I can't then I know its something else other than port forwarding. And I can start to look at other things as Moman says it may just be a firewall thing Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoMan10 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 btw, has ur mate portforwarded? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gazcollo Posted April 13, 2010 Author Share Posted April 13, 2010 Well he thinks he has but in the same boat as me really, but I'm 99.9 per cent sure I have done it properly and he can't connect to me, what I will say is when he try's to connect to mine there is a bit of time where it seems to be searching, whereas when I try to connect to his it comes up straight away unable to connect to server, that's why I think problem may be with some settings I have got but don't know much about as couldn't download steam either Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoMan10 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 What kind of internet do yous use? E.G Mobile Broadband etc. Out of curiosity, are you using hamachi? If so, delete it. Waste of time. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just use my normal home broadband from Orange, livebox is in the kitchen desktop in the study and me sat in living room on laptop, I was saying earlier to Andy H, that I got it to work for 2009 on the desktop and people could connect to me then, that's why I'm confident I have done the Portforwading right Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoMan10 Posted April 13, 2010 Share Posted April 13, 2010 I tried connecting and all I got was "unable to connect to server". I do not think you have portforwarded correctly. I unfortunaterly, have to go here. Early start in the morning. But should be on sometime tomoro. Hopefully you get it sorted before then Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully you get it sorted before then Ok maybe I can try and connect to you as the port forward I have done looks exactly the same as the instructions Thanks for the help Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
