HAMACHI issue - Can't see eachother in games($100,000 in SAMP if solution works)

[Altair_Carter]

Hey, i'm in a problem which i can't solve by myself, so i'm asking it here:

Story: Me and Winters have some games, which we wanted to play via Hamachi, but the problem is simple:

When i host/When he hosts server, none of us can see it.
Winters and me tried with Hyper, Hyper saw it great...

We tried on ArmA:Armed Assault and on CoD5, in both didn't worked. Tried older versions of Hamachi, still nothing...


Urgent help, guys!

Added a prize, if you help me, over SAMP. I really need that working!!

Tried connecting through a console (if the game has it)?

It's usually /connect ipaddress[:port]

where the :port is optional (left out = default) and the IP address would be the Hamachi IP.

example:

connect 5.14.171.138

Or manually entering the IP in some other way... Doesn't ArmA have such an option? I think Operation Flashpoint had it, so ArmA should have it too.

**EDIT**
Also, check your game versions and upgrade/downgrade if different. In some games different versions don't "see" each other.
I remember someone not being able to play NFS4 with me unless the same patch was used (4.50 patch with 4.44 .exe).

Check your Firewall/Router settings.

found the following over some googling. :P

1. Install hamachi
2. Check Devices priority Control Panel>Network connetions>Advanced>Advanced Configuration and place Hamachi connection as first connection, then restart will be needed
3. Open hamachi go Preferences>Window> and check Show advanced peer ...
4. Right click on others IP adress Advanced and fill VPN alias with your 3 first "digits" of IP(sorry for my english) eg. your IP is 5.123.124.23 and your friend is 5.23.13.51 then in his VPN alias put: 5.123.124.51 -> press ok, restart hamachi.
5. Turn off firewall for hamachi connection
6. Go preferences for hamachi network connection and set static IP.
