Hamachi?

[TupacAmaru]

Hey guys, im a very recent fan of civilization and am currently learning how to play on BTS with the nasa patch and the bhuric one, i love the game.

but its boring playing computers, and besides hating gamespy since my quake 1 days, it lags horribly and im sure you all are familiar with.

i was wondering if there are any communities here that play on lan-based clients such as Hamachi or Directconnect?? In my gaming experience its usually alot less laggy and mimics a lan.

Anyone down for some hamachi??

I use Hamachi for internet "LAN" games with my buddies. BTS doesn't seem to detect the game in the LAN browser but if we use direct IP and put in the Hamachi IP it goes in sweet as a nut, no connection or lag issues at all.

I use Hamachi and don't have any problems at all setting up a LAN game with my Civ buddy. He's at his house, I'm at mine, no problems. I just made sure to forward all the correct ports (or more accurately I put myself into Demilitarized mode on my router because Civ uses a ton of ports). Unfortunately my buddy doesn't know a whole lot about computers so I have to host all of our games. One day I'll go over to his place and set up his router for him... one day...
