    So, Hamachi was updated by LogMeIn, and now people who use it for gaming (MegaMek, MineCraft, etc) are totally unable to get it to work.

    We tried in vain to connect tonight, only option available is a direct IP connection (which doesn't work for everyone, like myself, who can never get people to connect TO me)

    Yeah... I'll be combing things trying to find things... but they've had 11 days so far to fix it and it hasn't been apparently. I dunno what the fuck is up.

    I was able to host a game and get everyone connected to me, but at that point we had people falling asleep lol.

    WE HAVE A FIX

    Anybody who wants to host a game needs to follow these steps to set up their network as Private so that Hamachi will work. It is not necessary simply to connect but the host MUST follow these steps to open up their network ports.
