Getting your game online Tutorial

Difficulty: 2/5

Hey, this is my first Tutorial. I have been working with eclipse for a while now. So I figured I would make a Tutorial. Plus Getting your game online can be some trouble. I want to explain how to do it wthout any problems.
Ok, what you wanna do first is go to Start>Run.
When you are there type in CMD and cick ok. The Command prompt will pop up.
Type: Ipconfig. and hit [enter]. Then it will give you 3 to 4 ip addreses.
It will list,
Connection-specific DNS Suffix.
Ip Address
Subnet Mask
Default Gateway.

Next what you want to do is open up notepad or something. Or if you got a good memory dont worry about it.
Ok, open up internet explorer, firefox, or w.e you use.
Type in your Default Gateway ip in the address bar and hit [enter]. It will most likely ask for a username and password. If you know this just type it in, if you don't know this then I can prolly help you out.
Try these:
UserName: Administrator
Password: Admin

Username: Admin
Password: (leave blank)

UserName: (leave blank)
Password: Admin

UserName: Admin
Password: Admin.

If none of these work, then you may have to contact your ISP company. There is also a reset button sometimes located on the back of cable modem, routers, and dsl modems. You could try reseting it.

Ok next thing is, After you figure out your username and password, it should pop come up now in your browser.
Click where it says Applicatons and gaming. (It may not say Applications and gaming, it may say apps or gaming . or sumthin like that)

Now this part can get kinda difficult.
Where it says Application, you can leave it blank.
Where it says Start, put 4000\. Put 4000 on End too.
The Potocol needs to be set on TCP.
And the ip address thing will come later in the tutorial. So lets see what we got here.

Application  | Start|to| End| Protocol|
(BLANK)        4000      4000    TCP

Now open a new browser thing and type in www.ipchicken.com. Or just click the url [www.ipchicken.com](http://www.ipchicken.com)

IpChicken tells you your IP address. Look at the last 3 numbers of your ip and remember them. Go back to the other browser wich had the application and gaming thing open. Put the last 3 numbers of you ip address into the boz that has a 0\. Its directly under where it says IP Address.

So once again this is how it should look.

Appl| Start |to| End | Protocol|IP adress
Blank 4000        4000  TCP    999.999.9.[999]

The Ip Address is fake, its just an example . lol

Ok now save your changes. And close it, we dont need it anymore.
Go back to ip chicken. and copy your whole Ip.
Go into your client folder and open up the eclipse client. Click where it says Ip Config and put in your ip. Where it says port, put 4000\. It might already be there. And you might have to go to the server folder and find data.ini. and change the port to 4000.
After that open up your server and your good to go. Save the client, send to everyone you know!

NOTE: If it screws up!
If for some reason it screws up put this ip in replace of your ip. 127.0.0.1\. that ip is the eclipse default ip.

Well thats bout it for this tutorial! Hope it helped!!

@MasterMind12:

> Tutorial for Vista next please?  :P

There are plenty of tutorials for Vista, but most aren't even needed.  Just download/install the Library Files (Run First.exe, Run Second.exe, and Run Third.exe) then download, extract, and run the http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/smf/index.php?topic=38932.0

Of course, just make sure you right-click and run everything as "Administrator".

@samih1996:

> this is crap there isnt eaven a section that says aplication or games, why would a router say that?

Every router is different, but port forwarding is only really used for allowing other connections to access your applications or games.

My router has a section called application & gaming which is where I port forward.

I suggest using portforward.com rather than this tutorial, though. They have guides for pretty much all routers.

Warned for acting like a dick.

Seriously dude, come back when you're OFF the rag… But anyways, Hey guys. I have kind of a newb question. I'm only 13 so don't hate on me too much... lol. My question is this, If I do this, Will it mess up my connection in any way? My father and I both have Xbox 360s and I wouldn't want to mess up his connection on either his Xbox or computer, or for that matter, my laptop or xbox lol

@TheUnknownSoldier:

> Well next time, try to ask for help about your problem and NOT go in and automatically start ranting about it. It will help you make friends and seem like a nicer person in the future.

Sorry, i am only 14, plus i was having a bad day at school. I needed to calm down like u said in the previous posts.

I had a bad day again today in school but i am calm at home, this kid was annoying me as soon as i came to school and i fighted him.

anyway thanks dallas14 for making the tutorial, it was probably hepfull for some people but not all.
