Greetings!

I have had Tron 2.0 for about 3 years now and didn't realize that so many classic maps were created for the multiplayer game.

I setup my host so that only the "classic tron" style maps are setup in lightcycle, derez, disc arena, etc... hoping that some of you would like to play in "classic tron" only multiplayer?

The only problem I have is getting my host to connect to the internet...I believe there are no firewalls setup on my system as of right now, anybody have any tips on how to host a game?

If anybody is interested in this style of play, perhaps we can corridnate when to meet up online through this thread... I usually have off weekends.

Thanks for reading, hope to hear from some of you,

End Of Line.

Thanks for the welcome!

Just one question, what do you mean by "ping"?

So everytime I play Tron 2.0 I should come on here and post a "ping" ?order abortion pill morning after pill price where to buy abortion pill

Hey shakezuulla, welcome to Tron-Sector.

Jademz gave some good advice, the only things I can add are that ports 27888 and ports 27889 are the default ports that need to be open/forwarded in order to host a Tron 2.0 server.

Do you have a router between your computer and the modem? That almost always needs to be set up properly when wanting to host. Also, Windows XP SP2 and Vista both come with built-in firewalls so you probably do have one which is active. I don't recommend the built-in firewalls, though. You're better off getting a third-party one like ZoneAlarm, Comodo, Sunbelt Kerio, etc. and disabling the one in Windows.

I have a bit of a guide about connecting to the internet and playing Multiplayer in Tron 2.0, here:
http://www.ldso.net/tronfaq/pages/crashes.html
Scroll down to the part where it talks about Multiplayer.

The router is not firewalled, unless, you can get your hands on a D-link gaming router, which has some sort of firewall feature.

If you have no firewall, you can bet your connection will be compromised by malware, spyware, Trojans, worms, hackers, and anything else that takes place on the net.

Since you said you just have windows XP firewall, add Tron 2.0 to the programs allowed to access the internet list.

Make sure your windows stays updated! and get a real firewall, only then, should you disable XP's firewall.

Jademz Wrote:The router is not firewalled

That's not entirely correct. Unless a computer's LAN IP is given full access on every port as either a Virtual Server, or is placed in the router's DMZ, any router will act like a simple firewall. But there are more elaborate routers and even dedicated firewall devices to protect you from more sophisticated attacks, yes.

shakezuulla Wrote:yes I have a router...though I have been told that the router if firewallless?

Every router acts as a simple firewall, unless you set it up in such a way that it allows all internet traffic to pass in and out with complete freedom. (Bad idea.)

By default, a router will block any incoming communication it doesn't expect. Which is when you need to set up a rule that tells the router to allow that communication. And that's what you have to do when hosting a Tron 2.0 server. You need to set up a rule that opens and forwards specific ports (27888 and 27889) to allow communication back and forth between yourself and any players.

My FAQ page that I gave the address to earlier, has links to a site called www.portforward.com. From there you can pick which router you own, and then you could go to the page for F.E.A.R. and use that as a guide on how to change the settings in your router for Tron 2.0. But don't forget you need to open 27889 in addition to 27888.

I guess the next step would be turning off the firewall on XP?

Not until you get another firewall first. Take a look at the various firewalls we've mentioned in this thread, and pick whichever one you like the best. They're all free.

Install it, and then disable the built-in XP firewall. In fact, whichever firewall you install will probably disable the XP one automatically anyway.
