Hi Randy, I was talking with Paul Jones who has ADSL and uses TZO to generate an IP for use with VROC. I also have ADSL with NAT addressing and use TZO to generate an IP address which I place in my setup on VROC. When I join a room everything looks fine but when I join or host a race everything starts Ok but in my mulit-player on GPL all I can see is my modem for hosting or to join a game. Do I need to set up a server for this to work correctly? Any help is appreciated... Thanks - Ron

I had the same problem with my cable modem awhile back. Try adding the following to your core.ini file: [communications] alternate_ip_addr_lookup=1
I believe case is important in GPL 1.0 (it will not be in GPL 1.1), so that it should read [ Communications ] alternate_ip_addr_lookup = 1 Randy

check the readme in the GPL directory.

Hi Randy, I followed you directions and now I can join a game using the IP generated by TCO When I host I see TCP/IP but it shows 10.0.0.2 I thought it should show the IP by TCO Attached is a copy of my core.ini If hosting was working correctly I believe I should see my name in the race list Do you have any ideas on hosting fix? Thanks - Ron

How do you use the TZO ip-address to join a game? After I've connected to TZO, GPL still sees only my NAT ip. // Rolf >Hi Randy, >I followed you directions and now I can join a game using the IP generated >by TCO >Thanks - Ron

Good morning, My ADSL w/NAT addressing is now working to join a game but there is still a problem with hosting. When I try to host I get a TCP/IP address of 10.0.0.2 and my IP from TZO is correct in setup. If I select 10.0.0.2 I can start the game but no one joins and when I go back to VROC room it does not show my game in the list. Thanks for you help in getting joining a game to work. Any suggestions for hosting? I have a very barebones core.ini file only the alternate ip line. Thanks - Ron

Caveat: I don't know the exact usage for TCO ... However, your host should always show its own IP Address, not the translated address. VROC should pickup the correct translated address. Joel Belog
