Hamachi:Age of Mythology

From LogMeInWiki

Hi Guys,

I got AOM working using this small workaround: First connect to hamachi and note the Ip address that u get. Note: Hamachi always gives you same IP no matter how many times you connect so this realy helped.

Now logout of Hamachi, and go to network connection in control pannel.Then select Hamachi connection and go to it's properties. Select protocol TCP/IP click on properties and select "use the following IP address" and feed the IP that Hamachi provided. If its XP it will automatically place a subnet, no need to edit any other setting; just the IP address and subnet mask.

Remember, do not connect to Hamachi yet!

Disable the primary network connection (The one provided by the ISP)

So in a nut-shell you have your primary connection disabled and Hamachi conenction has the static IP provided by you.

Now launch the game select multiplayer and Host. This time you will see that it has selected your Hamachi IP address and nothing else.

Minimise the game using ALT+Tab and head to network connection, enable the "primary network connection" and connect to your ISP. Now, when you're connected to ISP, launch Hamachi and connect to Hamachi server.

Get back to the game and kick some ass in multiplayer...

You do not have to use any overridecodes as mentioned above in other thread as they never work with AOM. Its just a 30 sec work before launching the game to force Hamachi IP on AOM.. Remember all users will have to do this.... and everytime the game is launched.

I think the same can be applied to all other games which have connectivity issues over Hamachi. I have not tried this on any other game yet, but you may as its a very simple workaround.
