EDIT - can connect now, but cannot host with alloy

really want to test alloy

from Sins Forums

k, i had nortons off but when i turned it on and added sins it worked. so i can connect but now i cannot even host using alloy. my game did not show up. i dont even wanna try portforwarding cause of how convoluted my wired connections are (modem to router to wall to switch, some comps randomly go offline)

 

any help would be much appreciated

Are you on version 1.13 and is port 6000 and 7000 open on your firewall(s)?

To host without alloy, open port 6112 and forward it from your modem/router to your PC

ive tried before, it either kills internet somehow or messes up 360 or something
