Hamachi Update - Warning
« on: May 25, 2007, 04:10:12 PM »
Well just went to play OP2 and loaded hamachi. Updated hamachi to 1.0.2.2 because it asked me to. But then Outpost 2 is not showing my Hamachi IP, it was showing my network IP. Meaning OP2 over hamachi will not work!

So to solve this I used a old version of hamachi:

I downloaded and ran this - HamachiCleanup.exe
Then uninstalled current Hamachi version
Then downloaded and installed this version: HamachiSetup-1.0.1.3-en.exe

1.0.1.3 works fine.

Maybe this hamachi update just aint good for us Outpost 2 users.

Now we need that Ham/WON repalcement...
Apparently OP2 only works on Ham because of a bug...
A bug they recently fixed...

We could probably make a quick hack to force OP2 to bind to a certain interface (rather than INADDR_ANY or whatever address it currently uses. I think it might actually do a name lookup on the computer name and use that address). This way you could force it to use the hamachi virtual adapter rather than the real adapter.

They probably changed the behavior since enough people probably complained about their webservers auto binding to the wrong addresses and so on.

We just need app that can hack OP2 like the natfix to the hamachi address. So a user enters there hamachi address and it sets OP2 to use that address.

Hope we can fix this as not everyone will just be using hamachi for OP2 and would like to be able to use the latest version.

Wouldn't that make Hamachi very annoying to use? You'd need to manually enable the hack when using Hamachi, and then manually disable it when you're not.

If it works then what does it matter !?

And we tend to use hamachi most of the time when we play anyway nowdays.

Well, we could replace nicmgr.exe (from hamachi), so it calls our own code when Hamachi is enabling/disabling the network adapter. That way we could set some config key or something to tell OP2 to bind to a certain address.

Hamachi.exe calls nicmgr.exe with a parameter to enable/disable/configure the adapter.

Well owned this problem!

Feel free to update your Hamachi client to 1.0.2.2.

Here is the fix:

Load Outpost 2. Goto Multiplayer > Internet > Create. It will probly show your local network IP:




Quit Outpost 2. Goto Start > Control Panel > Network Connections. Advanced > Advanced Settings.



On the Adapters and Bindings tab. Move Hamachi to the top of the list in the Connections list.



Check Outpost 2 again:

Correction - Yes you can play each other if they are using different version of hamachi.

But yes it is allways best to run the most up to date version so you have the bugfix's and such.

Uh, it does seem to make it not work. I can't see a game hosted by someone using the older version.

Check that on reinstall, the windows firewall / other firewall software isn't blocking the hamachi connection.

Most updates of hamachi, reinstall a new network connection, which by default gets firewalled.

Although I'm sure you have checked that already

I have updated the hamachi page on the website (http://www.outpostuniverse.net/index/hamachi) with directions for moving the Hamachi adapter to the top of the connections list in the advanced settings dialog.

you could just have a loader than ran the hack then started op2. It could simply check to see if hamachi was running to determine wether to enable or disable the hack. simple :D

The workaround dosen't work all the time for me and it gets annoying, im still using the old ver posted at the top of this thread - i still like the hack idea.

Just for reference, heres the link to the 1.0.2.1 version of hamachi:
http://download.oldversion.com/hamachi1021en.exe
I'm still using an old version no prob; and I don't have to do the workaround every time ham updates.
