I wont be hacking my registry to disable IPv6 for one game.

I have never used Hamachi.

Thanks for your input guys, I appreciate it.

I think this is the offender.

Tried it…no good…

Thanks for the tip though.

Hi there, I am recently getting back into Freelancer after not playing for many years.

My nephew and I are trying to get a LAN server going, I start the FL server program, set my options and it starts up just fine. When I load the game, it shows up in the server browser on both our lists. But neither of us can connnect to it.

I’ve tried the following:

Adding my IP to the command line of the shortcut.

Disabling IPv6 (the ip listed appears to be a odd string of gibberish)

Enabling/disabling DMZ on my router.

Is it even possible to run a LAN server and play on the same computer? And my nephew connected to my wi-fi? I have done it with other games, such as Wolf:ET.

I suspect someone will come here and admonish me for not doing the work my self, but I have been working for hours on how to get this going.
