Football Manager 2011; [TUTORIAL] ~ Setting up a Network Game!

[Afootieman]

it says unable to run server what should i do??

[hazzy176]

cheers and also my mate has a mac and i have a pc will they still connect

[BATMAAAN09]

@hazzy176 that one im not actually too sure about. i cant see why it wouldnt work because your both using a program which connects you regardless of platform, but hey, just give it a try see what happens. Have any issues just comment or inbox. Check out the other fm11 for player vids incl. frees, best signings, youngsters etc

[hazzy176]

hi do you and your mates have to have the same data base for it to work

[BATMAAAN09]

@hazzy176 as far as i am aware, no, the only person who needs the correct database which you and your friends desire is the person who is actually hosting the game.

[RangersLoyal96]

My friends wont connect to hamachi ? It says on the prefences that he doesnt have a client id etc, please help ?

[BATMAAAN09]

@RangersLoyal96 This is to you and everyone else having troubles, follow the tutorial EXACTLY as shown and it will work for you. Top tip: whoever has the best internet connection (best speed) is the best candidate for being the host.

[FFSgreenie2011]

[BATMAAAN09]

@FFSgreenie2011 No worries, i do try and help.

[shamedlad08]

TO ALL THE PEOPLE THAT CANT CONNECT FM WITH HAMACHI ITS ONLY 1 RESOLUTION A TINY PROBLEM OK ...... GO TO YOUR ROUTER SETTINGS AND ENABLE UPNP AND U WILL BE ABLE TO CONNECT NO PROBLEM.. HAVE FUN GUYS

[mrblitz321]

yeah thats why i throught it was weird because we can talk and see each other online on hamachi any ideas

[BATMAAAN09]

@mrblitz321 Hmm that is very strange. Try switching hosts around...thats all i can suggest.

[mrblitz321]

it wont let me select the ip number in join server screen but its showing not allowing me to select

[BATMAAAN09]

@mrblitz321 umm this is very unusual. have you joined the hamachi network? Like does your name appear aswell as your friends under the hamachi name server that the host had created?

[SrbiniDelija]

Its ok how to create a game , but my frend need to connect to my game , and he can't do that ... plaese help ... He unable to connect to server. thanks

[BATMAAAN09]

@SrbiniDelija Not an issue! Creating a game, just create a game like normal and once you get to the stage of choosing your team, your enabled to click preferences/network/ and there should be a little tickable box called 'run as server' you need to run as server.

Joining the game is a little tricker, basically both people who are going to be playing the game need to download a program called hamachi. The person hosting the game needs to give the friend THEIR code which is on THEIR hamachi.

[BATMAAAN09]

then once you have your friends hamachi code, put that into 'join other server' which is located in the bottom right hand corner once you've clicked network games on the main screen and his server should come up.

[BATMAAAN09]

@SrbiniDelija well you need to ensure the box is clicked. Whoever the host is of the game, that person needs to give their hamachi code and the other player needs to place that code into the 'join other server' box that comes up. Just re-cap on the video and make sure you follow it step by step because it does work coz thats the exact same process which i use.

[SrbiniDelija]

@BATMAAAN09 man , thanks becouse you tried to hel me but its still Unable to connect..we make many hamachi to try and no one works...

[gormo095]

need help to connect to severs of hamachi or is there any other way of doing it

[BATMAAAN09]

No specific time or date has been set for when the network game will be in progression.

[IWillDestroyYou97]

And whats your steam?

[IWillDestroyYou97]

Thanks man great help and when will you start fmhub network game? im really excited for it!

[BATMAAAN09]

I would probably say responding to passionatedactor's post, it'll be something to do with internet connection...or something to do with the host.

[PassionatedActor]

Hi dude. My friend found me in the network Que and logged in to game status. Each time he press continue, he gets kicked from the game. Any ideas about how to solve that?

[SirBu3n0]

It says: "Unable to connect to server" ...  what can be done to solve this?

[BATMAAAN09]

Well if im honest mate, i know this process if you follow it fully it works because i use it, BUT, the only thing i could suggest is, the player hosting the game, needs to be the one that creates the network. Then the host gives the code from their hamachi to the players.

[toonsupersound]

i do it but everytime it says unable to connect to server any idea how this could happen? Thnx
