Heroes II Multiplayer Hamachi

Unread postby Lex » 20 Aug 2008, 20:33

Hey, been playing heroes II since elementary school and still going strong. Best game ever made. Was wondering if anyone out there would like to play some online multiplayer? I saw you guys have a hamachi network for the forums but no one has been on.

Agreed on the best game ever made sentiment!

I had a network but it was difficult to synchronize the timezones and now it's dead.

If you create a group, I'll gladly join and play when I have time.

Be warned, however, that for some players the game crashes a lot over Hamachi.

I'd be glad to play you in HoMM II. I played UndeadHalfOrc a fair bit earlier in the summer.

Yup, but we tried Hamachi and it never worked for me, so we played using direct TCP/IP.

Just be sure to disable all firewalls for the Heroes 2 executables first.

Lex, it tells me the network does not exist.

But maybe that's an error with my Hamachi. The last few times I switched it on it keeps giving me a message saying my premium account has expired. But the thing is, I've never had a premium account! ;|

Not just you; it doesn't exist for me either.
