Changing sins standard port

from Sins Forums

Hi

Im at university and as such cant port forward the hub. At the moment I cant get sins to work multiplayer, however I can play supcom and thought changing the port from 6112 to 6600 is worth a try. Could anyone give me a detailed description of how to do this?

Thanks

It's in the FAQ! You know know the big red button on the top bar!  :d 


Having said that, more than likely that won't work and you'll have to wait for the NAT-T (NAT traversal) "tunneling" netcode of version 1.1 before you'll be able to host.


Also, you do know that TCP 6000 is already in use by SINS for ICO.

thanks,

P.S. Putting in some (even a very little) of effort in finding your answers before posting would be the courteous thing for those of us who offer up so much of our time to answer posts that actually REQUIRE an answer.

Okay I should have explained, I did in fact read the FAQ, the problem is I cant actually find the user.setting file, and thats what I need help with. I guess being specific makes answering questions alot easier!
So is it a part of the firewall or is it a file within the sins program? As i cant seem to find it in sins yet.
Thanks for the response

Hi again, I think ive worked out my problem, for some reason the folder is hidden, and so I couldnt see it, and that was what confused me. Btw how do I make such folders unhidden? Though I wonder if the test to see if you are worthy of seeing them, is the ability to make them unhidden.
