WAN games for BHD
This is may be a little confusing, but hopefully you all will know how to solve the problem.
We have a very nice network to play on at work, so we end up doing a lot of lan games, we decide to reach and do a wan game, no I know that the
connection to the other folks is good, because we can do a WAN BF1942 game with them. For those that do no know how that game works, you host an
internet game that all can connect to. Is there a way to do that with BHD? If you are at all confused by the post please feel free to ask more
questions. I know that the answer is out there.

So u want to know how to host a internet game, and join by local ip?
NL never added this function to DF, then came alone our coders  Destrutr and
Nedfox created Pinger and Joiner.
Which to use is a matter of personal preference to gui, I prefer pinger.
U need to know the local ip of the server machine...install pinger (I install to /bhd/progs/pinger)/start df with pinger,/ refresh,/ r clk on a server
in top window/ add internal server/hit create play list on bottom taskbar/ start game/choose interal server /and join

Thanks Steptoe, just one more question, where do I get the progs. I am assuming here on the website, but I just wanted to make sure. Thanks again
for all of your help.

We have anywhere from 6 to 12, depends on how busy we are. Since we are playing at work, we don't get a very consistant crowd. But we do have a core
of 6. We stick with the smaller maps, and do a lot of pistol/shotgun matches. It's fun. Thanks again.
