Playing Spring through direct IP

Post by polarstar_111 »

Was just wondering how one would go about playing Spring by directly connecting to other people's computers? And to do so, what does the host need to do?

maybe:
install hamachi and the lan-version of spring and try to connect as a virtual lan through hamachi (dunno if it will work, but u could try). but why would u like to play this way?

you need to run a lobby server locally, or else modify scritps.txt manually (NOT RECOMMENDED ;-) ).
The lobby server cna be found on hte download page.
