Proxy settings?

Post by Finster » Wed Jan 19, 2005 8:50 pm

Hi,

I'd like to play online but I am behind a proxy server, i've read the manual included with the game but I don't see where there is a setting to set a proxy server. I can't connect to the master server. I know other games will work behind this server so I don't think they are blocking this port.

Please help.

Unfortunately, the game does not support proxies. HTTP access is used only to receive the server list and if you can't get it without a proxy, I think it would be even less probable to be able to play network games since they use other ports. But those ports are open, it would be possible to play by connecting directly to servers without using the server list.
