dallasfan12 Posted September 2, 2012 Author Share Posted September 2, 2012 How can one friend (just for development purposes) connect to your game? do you have to port forward? or can you use hamachi? i cant find a guide to this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ertzel Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 You could use hamachi is you really wanted to. Guess it would be fine if its only for dev purposes. Or you can go with port forwarding, each will work for making your server live. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use the gear icon (next to the search bar, at the top-right) and then filter by forum to search just for tutorials.[Here's a guide for portforwarding, if you want.](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/index.php?/page/index.html/wiki.html/_/eclipse-origins/tutorials-1344890800/publishing-your-game-r5) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dallasfan12 Posted September 7, 2012 Author Share Posted September 7, 2012 if i use no-ip, do i still do TCP port 7001? i read something about port 80.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhi2011 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 There is a way using port 80 and as well as port fowarding with whatever port you want. Port 80 doesn't need you to port foward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blkcrow Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 i think skype uses port 80 so if your users have skype it will block that port. its easy to change the port in skype though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abhi2011 Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 I don't think Skype can't use port 80 since ISP's use it. No-IP just tunnels through somehow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stein Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Skype does use Port 80, it's used for websites.. Not ISPs. (Hence the fact it disturbs a lot of home run servers) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
