Hi

Just installed Mayhem again, after a few years off. Now i'm running Vistax64 and it seems to cause problems

LAN game.. Keeps saying my nick is being used, which of cause it isn't. Tried using some garbage letters even. I wan't to play over Hamachi also. Other than that, the game seems to work just fine.

Advise please.

why don't you just add some more numbers in the name?

Sorry to bump an old thread, but I am also having this problem. My friend and I are both using Hamachi and attempting to play, but I keep getting that nickname in use garbage appearing no matter what name I put.

My friend doesn't have this problem. He is on windows xp 64 bit pro. I am using Vista x32 SP1, like the other gentleman in this thread. Hopefully that'll help figure this out.

Anyone know if this is a Vista thing? I'd just like a solution to this. The only other option is opening my ports, and last time I did that I had a nasty time with spyware, immediately!
