I have installed ac/acdc/decal into a folder named c:games..............


Everything works fine, my first account logs in properly, decal works etc. When I log into my 2nd account, I get to the screen where there are 2 glass tube to fill up, one for connection, the 2nd for updating. The connection tube fills up, then the 2nd tube stays empty untill I get the message "connection to server has been lost"


I have reinstalled ac/acdc/decal 3 times now,all to their own folder, i have read many posts about issues with decal/acdc running on vista, and no luck. any suggestions?


here is my export

All you need to do is forward one port from your router to each pc (one port for each pc). Then use that port you specified on each pc. You can either set the port in the userpreferences.ini file (under my documents) or use ACDC to set the port for you.

If you are not sure how to forward a port this site can walk you through it.

yes. I would forward a block of maybe 5-10 ports to your pc. Ports 9000-9010 for example.

ip addy 391287893709874087 port 9000-9005

ip addy (same thing) port 9005-9010

You only need to forward the ports to the IPv4 address.

EX: Port 9000-9005 > 192.168.1.101 (whatever the ipv4 address is for your comp)

I am not sure what you asking. You only have to forward the specified ports once to the IPv4 address. There are just over 65k ports available on a computer. You can only use each port once. For that reason you have to tell each client to use a specific port so they do not both try to use the same port at the same time.

pardon my computer illiteracy, but how do i do tell each client to use separate ports on one comp? I thought maybe I could change the port in user preferences, but there is only one of those files.
