Get Hamachi now

Hah, I knew it would be allowed.

They said it would be LAN only, how coudl they not allow it? You don't expect people who happen to preorder the games to magically live next to eachother or fly to eachother, you have to use Hamachi or a similar service. Why do you post?

But the headsup for downloading it is coming now so it's one more hurdle jumped till the beta

Hamachi uses LAN IPX over internet. It works.

Yea when I played DotA a ton, we would want to play my friends without going on B.net, so we'd hamachi local games and they would be what 5 hours away? I didn't have lan cable that long.

Does anyone have a full version of hamachi so they can create a channel with many of us in it?

The network "Demigod" already exists, but I have no idea which password is in use.

Just created "Demigod Beta" with "Beta" as password.

Hmmm, is this a departure from the posted Journal?

"The part that we're most challenged by at present is how quickly we can implement the Hamachi-like multiplayer system so that players who don't know what router ports are and such won't have to worry about them anymore.  The first beta won't have that in there (I'm not sure as yet how much, if any, multiplayer will be in the initial beta 1 engine test portion)."

Impulse is the "hamachi-like multiplayer system".  But the multiplayer part isn't quite ready yet.

Funky, the Impulse backend won't be ready/won't be integrated into Demigod until a bit later.

DeadMG set up 3 hamachi servers for Demigod.

Don't be in every one of them or it'll lag.

DemiGod LAN 1
DemiGod LAN 2
DemiGod LAN 3

password is pass.

But I'd expect Stardock to set up some with a commercial license so they can make a bigger group with less lag..

The free hamachi is limited to just a few people.  Or maybe i'm missing something and youn eed the commercial license to join the big hamachi servers?

I setup one yonks ago for the cool people

Demigoddess / beta

Each network can have 50 users.

On the offical hamachi website is no info about that only commercial versions can have 50 users.

Commercial networks can have way more IIRC.

Stardock should set one up for us..

Honestly the way it will work best for just random people is simply to advertise the fact you want to play a game on IRC. People of like minds will be on it. and you'll know right away who wants to play and then you can arrange who is joining what network.

Having 3 networks for hamachi and people auto joining them is just a madhouse. because when i network fills up but people from 2 different ones want to play, your gonna be trying to sort it out, In whcih case you'll join a different netwrok anyway.

Ah, that explains my confusion.  Thanks.

So, does somebody want to setup an IRC channel for Demigod Beta related chat?

Would be very helpful for setting up Hamachi games.

irc.stardock.com

That didn't work for me.  Says "Bad Host Name"

edit lol im dumb
