ok i just learned of git and it seems really cool, my freind has hellfire ~actually a hellfire mod called "The Dark" but it runs just like hellfire~
and we are trying to play over lan/internet using git. im not really savy with networking but i figured if i played around with it a bit i could get it to work, we tried lots of different settings but nada.
so im figuring were doing something very basic wrong. with all the options im sure one simply little check box would bring down the whole house.
i can't find a basic faq so pardon me for asking basic questions.
ok here is basicly what we tried to do,
this is my screen

and this is his screen

and i created the game, when he goes to join an ipx game he doesnt see me, im assuming this is how it works, but assuming tends not to work. so thats why im here =)
all the advanced setting are on default, or whatever they come with (where both using the latest stable version of git, not the beta) we both tried disabiling our firewalls, both using XP, he is on a router, however we have played IP games (heroes IV) before with no troubles, his father sais he enabled all ports on the router. so ya any help would be very much apreciated, thanks ahead of time, and this is an awesome program. =)
