Online gaming

Post by Borg2of9 »

hi i no that BOTF is now an old game - but very much a classic in my eyes.

The copy of the game I've got doesn't have an instruction manual and i was wondering if anyone knew how to set up an online game as i tried to do one with a friend of mine earlier but couldn't get our heads round it and my searches have come up empty.

I would be most grateful if any one knew

thank you in advance

first thing you need to know is your router model and the manufacturer of course.

then use a search engine to find out how to open ports on that thing...

looking through the forums here at afc isn't a bad idea, either.
