I replaced the library DirectPlay by rakNet.
A library is a part of program in charge of one task.. here the transfer of informations.

You can play without Hamachi which is an external server.
Hamachi is able to make easier the connection, no more (you haven't to setup your router or other Firewall)
We made several tests with/without Hamachi.

Hope it's clear...

On my return lancier i will buddy up with you and get the game,however i atill worry about spending 2 hours looking at a 2D map,i just cannot get my head round it.

srry i chime in cause more crowded the teams more enjoyable the league is

tac mate dont be prejudiced pls cause i know u ll like it. Infact most N ll ...
you dont play with 2d for 2 hours you ll use 3d. I mean when people be more experienced or become familiar with the game they more use the 3d map. Best is you can switch corps with your team mate and pass on some or all of them ...you can use TeamSpeak or Xfire while playing or only use ingame message system which seems very historic. You dont have to form even number teams, 1v4, 2v4 ... all variations are playable and fun. So you 2 or hopefully more if they come ll have fun.Anyway, thats really a great game for most NBC (we have more Histwar members than NTW now ) and i am sure you ll like it too, ask VC mate, he s the pro translator and tester of histwar.
see u there Tac...Lancier as N representative ll post your team on the league page soon.

np Naplrd, i maybe made the comment in haste as im judging it from when i beta tested it,but obviously it will of improved alot since then.It seemed very technically heavy to setup a game too which put me off.
No fear m8 i will be on it when i return i just fear the learning curvelol,it seems dougie is finding his feet though

[Somerset]

i have this game since its released but i am still a rookie ... we ll learn to together while competing
c you mate i am be happy you ll be htere.
Xfire - www.xfire.com/download/ its not necessary but histwar MP has a group there (JMM there as well) if you come there we ll meet more easily otherwise we can use the nwg forum-chat box for battle arrangements.
