Id like 3-4 hangars and 4 thugs, 2 transport moths and 2 attack moths. Thats enough to have a nice corporation. If you need more, team up with someone.

Hi all,
This is my first post, I am so glad people are still playing this game!! I thought I might be one of the only ones out there still! Anyway, I have been trying to play in Hammer's online game. I have been pasting in Hammer's IP when asked but no servers are showing. Any ideas?
Cheers, 252

You need to forward ports 2300 to 2400, 47624, 6073, 9001, and 2300 both udp and tcp on your router through to your pc. You may not need them all, but these work for me. You also need to allow Hardwarw.exe in windows firewall.

You can try temporarily disabling your pc's firewall, then try to connect. If it doesn't work, well...it doesn't work. a VPN might work, but I won't put you (or me) through that -Digger

I'm unsure but wouldn't Hammer also need to be running the VPN client for that?

Hi flyers! The game might be down over the next day or so. I'm ugrading my video card and the computer has to come apart. Depending on how it goes it may take awhile. My son bought me a pair of NVidia GTX 550 ti video cards and I'm going to try to hook them up SLI. I've never done that before so....learning curve starts now. Hammer

That is actually a terrible idea, running a PC with those video cards just for a hardwar server, its just going to wear the parts out sooner than they have to not to mention the electricity usage...
I would recommend getting a 2nd cheap PC and have it be the dedicated server box.
Although, I'm renting a VDS out of Chicago, and that's practically the best way to go. On all the time and has a beefy connection.

Oh, I'm not running the video cards because of Hardwar. I'm running the video cards for all of the other games I've played like Crysis, FarCry, Bioshock. The Hardwar server takes up practically no resources at all running in the background on my computer. Almost no memory, and the CPU is just idling. My computer almost doesn't know it's there. The only exception is that for some reason, MSGC, (possibly a memory leak) will at some point go insane and start driving my CPU to 100%. When that happens I just close MSGC, wait a few seconds, and then restart MSGC, that resets MSGC and the problem goes away. I don't need a dedicated box just to be a server for Hardwar. In dedicated server mode the game isn't even noticeable to my computer. Speed and Greed on Titan! Hammer

Hi flyers. The game is still down. I cannot get Direct Play to work to get the server going. This may take a while. Sorry, but no online game until I can get this working again. Hammer

Hi Hammer, Any update?? Did you get it going again, or are you close?

I hope this server is online, or did Hammer drop out of existance?
