We always used Hamachi like any other normal person (www.hamachi.cc) :P
Oh and its Homm 5, basically the only thing you need is the Tribes of the East standalone addon, everything else isnt really necessary for mp :P

OK I will seek that hamachi thing out, I remember you or someone mentioning it before and it sounds useful. I will also have to config my firewall (I just switch it off for LAN play).

So we need a time, format and decide who is to be server (ie DM or TDM, random or chosen races, ghost or no ghost mode etc). Re server, my PC is a 2 year old Intel Core2 6700 @ 2.66.

I'm easy on format although I'm not sure I fancy ghost mode. If it's DM my mate can probably play (making 5 of us), if it's TDM then I would guess it'd be Partydevil and me vrs Taz and Cee ?

Arent you using a router ? I've given up on software firewalls since I got mine :P
Time doesnt really matter to me, but I guess it will take a few meetings to finish a map. Taz probably has the best PC to serve, after all he gets all the stuff bought from his rich family :p
And there isnt really a big variety of tdm maps, is there ? We barely tried any downloaded maps, only the ingame ones or randomly generated ones (and that eliminates tdm again -__-). Races are up to the players and Ghost mode can be off, we might as well chat ingame while waiting for the turn or do other things :P

I will try to convince Ramses to keep his hacking equipment out of reach while we're playing :P

Well I think I have installed and configured the Hamachi thing, my LAN pc's are talking through it anyway :P

Taz/Cee could you send me a pm with your network details (name and password) so I can test it sometime ? Also a time to connect would be good :P
