whc.demo Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 (edited) my friends and i have been trying to play coop together over the internet using hamchi as many ppl have suggested.. however when we use hamachi the game thinks it is LAN therefore using up massive amounts of our bandwidth, half the time 1 or 2 of us drop out and our Teamspeak starts cutting out and so on... perhaps in europe or the states having the game set to LAN isnt aproblem because of ur high internet speeds, but all the way down here in Australia the average net connection is 1mb down and 256KB upload, its this 256KB upload that is restricting us from being able to play at LAN settings when trying to host a coop server.. with 256kb upload we will be lucky to have 2 ppl playing together, when the 3rd and4th person joins its all over.. is there a way to set the bandwidth that the game will use, like you can set ur speed for internet games?? all help appreciated Edited October 17, 2006 by whc.demo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutlink Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 While my unit once in a while uses Hamachi, I have no idea how to help you. Sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FI_FlimFlam Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 in the servers_shared.xml is a network speed setting. Try adjusting it to as low as the file recommends and see if that doesn't help with the person hosting (use a multiple of 8). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BPR_MiK Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Hamachi works simply by fooling the internet into thinking that it is playing on a lan (if you get me) You will never sort out your problem whilst using hamachi.. use the internet.
