How to set up a game
« on: 26 January 2020, 22:27:15 »
Hello! Please forgive me if this is a repeated topic, but I need help on how to set up a game on my computer. What I am specifically looking to do is fire up MegaMek on my computer and then have my friend connect to directly to my computer so we can play MegaMek. How exactly do I do this?

I believe that I would fire up MegaMek.jar and select Start a New Game. My friend would then fire up MegaMek.jar and select Connect to a Game and enter in my IP address. Is this correct? If not, then how would I go about doing this? Thank you!

As an FYI, I have set up port forwarding on my router and on Windows 10.

Thank you for your help!

I use MegaMek.exe but yes, this is exactly how I do it.
