Using GGC on Windows Vista

[d0minic]

Personally, I have encountered problems using GGC wif windows vista. thus the following guide is for those with vista but yet unable to connect to games. The original guide writer is a Russian.

1) include Vista firewall

u can go to properities n edit e prog settings , eg. uac or xp2 compatability dont need to disable e whole uac function.

GGClient Port Settings


My router isn't UPnP compatible:

Which ports for my problem?



If you can't see/join games:
Open UDP Port 1513
- Check the settings on the start of GG-Client
- Check the box: "Specify Port (for pass firewall)" and enter value 1513.
GGClient port is variable for better security, but chose always UDP


If you can't connect to the GG-Game US Server and you receive a login timeout:
Open TCP Ports,8688,7456
