Hi All,

 

I noticed that some people have had issues getting their IP address into MFME correctly in order to run the multiplayer machines.

 

To assist with this I have created a couple of batch files to automate that process.

 

As IP is handled slightly differently in Windows 7 than 8 and later there is a different file for each version in the .zip.

 

To get this to work you will need to:

 

Open the .zip file.

Drag the appropriate file to your desktop (Win 8 will also work in Win10).

Run it.

 

If you get an error from smartscreen, right click the file on your desktop, go to properties and click unblock then OK.

 

Once run the script will set your IP address correctly in MFME.

 

Notes:

 

If your computer has more than 1 network connection then the script will pick the first from the list. Frankly if this is an issue then you're likely know how to add your IP yourself anyway.

 

You need to restart MFME if it was running when you ran the script.

 

Finally...

 

These scripts are provided "as is". I accept no responsibility for any issues, damages or other losses as a result of you using these scripts on your PC. Please use them at your own risk.

 

Cheers,

 

Magz.

Great idea and very useful, maybe aAmusement's can move this to the tutorial section for mfme5 for easy access and link it to the mfme5 emulator download as this can be set when running mfme 5 for the first time
The more I do today, The less I do tomorrow.
Fme is alive and screaming into the 21st century!
Enjoy FME and Happy Gaming!!!!
