Well, i will start by saying it didn't work, but we tried it all and in the end we totally disconnected the firewalls.
First we couldn't see eachother. Nukkxx disconnected his software firewall.
We then discovered that the game communicates through port 47624, so i (kimsand) opened for incomming and outgoing tcp traffic on that port, and also routed it to my gaming computer (as i have more than 1 computer on my lan). Then nukkxx could see the server, but not connect to it but got some kind of timeout error.
Then I opened for both tcp and udp traffic on the port. It helped cause now nukkxx could connect to the server, but it froze both computers, and it was only possible to get 1 message through on the internal game chat.
Then i discovered that if the server had waited too long for a client to connect, the client could not connect at all.
At last i surrendered and opened up for everything on my lan, and as i did that we were back to the timing error ??????? . That was actually kind of funny.
But heck, it was nice to try and figure it out with someone i didn't know, and nukkxx and I came to chat a bit back and forth, so it was very (hyggeligt)/cosy as we say in Denmark. Hope to be seeing him in a game once.
Pleeeeeeease fix it matrix-games. I paid for it.
