does anyone know the protocol and ports Rome: Total War uses?
My friend and I were having some trouble so I was just wondering if someone could share their working config if they have this game.

Well I did some research with my firewall and I got:
Monitoring app when looking for games I get outbound attempts to 255.255.255.255:26220

Once you hit host it starts listenning on port
26220 in both UDP and TCP.

No i was still asking for git config.

BUT after a LOT of testing i got it to work...
And udp settings for me did NOT work i dont know if it was my friends router or the fact we use tiny firewall or what, but udp never worked.

TCP finally worked though... I made pics of how we did it too :D

Tryed ur config and i can host and mate can join but he cant host as when i connect to his game it says no responce from host. Any ideas? He has a port open for udp and tcp for gaming and i match it as well.

Only thing we do diff which helped more is in the ip thing we add three same ip but for udp/tcp listen and tcp recieve in the config box on left so its got same ip but 3 things added. and i do same. it helps cos then it is just i connect to him and vice versa.

So main question is what can he do using config or fw options to help him host games.

He has a lan computer to connect to his dads pc's internet as his dad gets the direct connection and he connects using his dads pc, his dad using win xp sp2 fw he said he has configured it properly but any ideas what are vital to host games or any tips anywhere would be appreciated.
