There are two ways you can do this. One, is by port forwarding, the second is by LogMeIn Hamachi. If you don't know what port forwarding is, you should go with logmeinhamachi; its easier. [https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/download.aspx](https://secure.logmein.com/products/hamachi/download.aspx)

Download the unmanned version. Once it's done, setup a group. Then, right next to the power button should be some sort of IP. Go to your client's config, and type that into the IP. In order for people to access your game, they must download the same unmannaged version of LogMeIn Hamachi and join your group. Only then will they be able to access your game.

You can tell its a bit annoying having to download a separate program to access a game. This is why portforwarding is helpful.

I portforward by going to [http://192.168.2.1/](http://192.168.2.1/) and going into my Network Settings, and portforwarding there. That's all I can give you for that sorry. Its rather simple if you know what you're doing though. Hopefully i helped and you make the right decision. Good luck!

I apologize. I forgot to add one important thing, as well as a few other minor things. After portforwarding, go to [http://ipchicken.com/](http://ipchicken.com/) and get your ip from there. Put that into your IP in the client config. The port you should use is 7001\. As for UDP or TCP, I don't know for certain. I'm not a professional in this area, so I just set it to both. Other than that, you should be set. By the way. Double posting to add some sort of "extra" message is frowned upon here. You can edit all of your posts by hitting the "Edit" button on the bottom of your post. Good luck!

ok thanks it works got some friends on, and to be honest double posting is only frowned appon on any forum community because there just retarted, anything over 2 posts is spam, and then should be considered spam, i actual edited my post four times and it never showed up so i was forced to double post to ask my question,
