A friend and myself are unable to connect to play SMAC multiplayer over TCP/IP. We have used the same version with all the correct patches installed in the right order as per this guide by DrazharLn.

Were both using W7 x64bit. And we can ping each other on hamachi and can ping our ecternal IPs. One strange thing is that I can see my friends game he is hosting but when I click on his game to join it does nothing for maybe 20 secs then goes back to the main menu. We have disabled our firewalls both PC based and router based. Any help would be great as we really want to play this game. We have tried Gameranger but we get an ipx error and we are invited to install directx5. I saw posting on a Technet site MS that does not support IPX any more.
Any help would be great as I was looking forward to playin this game
