which ports for multiplayer game..

Post by yorick5 »

I have a Linksys router and am running a multiplayer game. In the past I've just been opening up all of the ports. Anyone know which specific ports I need to forward to run BG?

According to here:

You need to open the following ports to both TCP and UDP protocols, permitting both inbound and outbound traffic:

For BG2: ports 2230-2400, and 47624
For Direct Play: ports 2234 and 47624

Your readme.txt file located in your BG2 - SoA directory also has some info on configuring multiplayer games.
There's nothing a little poison couldn't cure...

What happened here was the gradual habituation of the people, ... to receiving decisions deliberated in secret; to believing that the situation was so complicated that the government had to act on information which the people could not understand, or so dangerous that, even if he people could understand it, it could not be released because of national security.
