Help - Free up a port

[EVILasianTHUG]

how do i free up a specific port or any port to play the game?

[Nantuko Joe]

you can't, really. all you can do is change your port. the default is 1626. the one that works best for me is 59222. try it

you can change your port as long as you want...

[TMyApp]

if you are behind a firewall/proxy, you'll probably have to "free up" your port there... if not 1626, then some other port... (see FAQ for more info)

[EVILasianTHUG]

how do i check my network administrator and tell it to free up a port? is it a software i need to configure?

[Nantuko Joe]

Network Administrator? Free up a port? SOFTWARE?! Dude, all you do is log in to the game and go to options, then go to Network. You will see the default port of 1626. Just change it to something else; try port 59222. it works best for me. No administrators, no software necessary

[oO_HoTSauCeOo]

Just a little advice, read the faqs.

[TMyApp]

if you can't connect on 1626, then you are probably behind a firewall or a proxy...

so, you will have to talk to the person that was setting it up (network admin) to see if they can give you access to that port... if not 1626, then one of the other "secondary ports" like 59222 or 27015

if you can't do that, you can't play the game... and as mentioned above, it is ALL in the FAQ...

Yikes too bad If he cant fix it..:(

[EVILasianTHUG]

i read the faq and tried everything it said to do. i read the forum and tried everything. it didn't work. the network adminsitrator threw me off cuz i didn't knew what it meant and thought it was the problem to fix. it is obvious now that my computer suckz and can't play the game. thanks for the help eventho my comp sucks.

well you cant play this game anymore until your combuter is fixed :(

[EVILasianTHUG]

it's easier to get a new one than fix. now i have to rely on playing the practice game. that's HELLa fun and i always win. and PERFECT all the time, too.

[Nantuko Joe]

i gotta admit, Evil, that was pretty good :biggrin: lol

[oO_HoTSauCeOo]

Lol, ah man, hope you have fun playing practice.

[Nantuko Joe]

ya, unless TMyApp takes me up on my idea about A.I. Practice mode

[oO_HoTSauCeOo]

heh, I don't think that will happen until we find a fix for lag.

[Nantuko Joe]

very true

yeah your right man you always win but it is boring..

[oO_HoTSauCeOo]

Of course, wining every round and getting perfect is really boring.

[EVILasianTHUG]

what one seems boring to another is not. like attending government meetings that's HELLa boring. and the majority will agree with me. the practice game is for me to waste time with. no biggie i can always rely on emulators and roms. eventually i will raise my raf on u all. beware EVIL@$$THUG coming soon

[oO_HoTSauCeOo]

There's not too much Street Figter roms.

[Dan Hibiki]

Grrr... I am against that stuff now. I have purged my computer of all things possibly illegal. I don't like ROMs anymore.

[oO_HoTSauCeOo]

LOL, same here I delete mine before 24 hours, at least that's what it said.
