    How Do I Fix In Game Screen Wave???

    Yes Vsync is enabled. Without Vsync theres little tear lines that pop up. Vsync fixed that. The problem I'm having is a thicker "wave" type roll. Around the center of the screen. It rolls upward but it's not constant. I've been playing now at 1360X768 & I haven't noticed it. Could it be my PC...

    Still Need Help Hosting MP Games (sigh)

    OK, I've asked this before but I want to make sure I'm correct. When I'm forwarding ports, I need to enter my"LAN IP address" for the Private IP right? So, my LAN IP address is what you call my internal IP adress? Oh, I called my ISP today & they said they do not block any ports or anything.

    Still Need Help Hosting MP Games (sigh)

    I tried forwarding the ports but it didn't work so I'm thinking it's either my software firewall or cable modem/isp interfering. I'm still shooting in the dark though. I will try direct connecting to my PC & set my PC-cillin to "direct connection". Would this protect me? Is 1 firewall enough?

    Questions About Multiplayer Game Hosting

    So the problem solely lies with my router config & possibly my software antivirus? Do I still need to do the IP passthrough you spoke of before? Thanks for the help. I'll work on it some more over the weekend.

    Questions About Multiplayer Game Hosting

    So if I've assigned my Computer a 192.168.0.200 address on my network that will be the IP address I forward ports to? SO that would allow internet users to connect to my internal ip address assigned by my ISP? Also, about Antivirus/firewall software. Should I put the settings to Low...

    Questions About Multiplayer Game Hosting

    OK I can open a range of ports under firewall settings. Q. When I enter my LAN IP to forward the port to do I enter my ISP IP or just my 192.168.x that I have set up for static DHCP?
