[edit] What is Hamachi (aka HamHam)
Hamachi simulates a LAN network. Used mostly for LAN Gaming.
- If you want to host and play with other people and simulate a LAN Connection, you'll need a program called Hamachi.
- You NEED version 1.0.3.0. Newer versions through "LogMeIn" dont work properly.
- To connect to another Revolve server running on Hamachi, Connect to their server VIA friends list. (Steam Games)
- Hamachi is normally referred to as HamHam among Revolve Members.

To my knowledge, The Main Revolve Server is full. You need to connect to a Overflow server.
- Revolve Main Network (FULL)

[edit] How To Setup Hamachi
Hamachi isnt hard to setup, But if you need assistance, follow this guide.
[edit] 1. Download & Install Hamachi

[edit] 2. Configure Hamachi
After Hamachi installed, Go ahead and run it. When Hamachi comes up, Follow any on screen steps to setup Nickname / whatever. If you are running Hamachi on a number of machines, Be sure to set your nickname to something Descriptive like, Steve (Laptop) or Steve (Desktop).
[edit] 3. Join a Network
Revolve has various networks already setup. A list of them can be found above. When playing with a friend that is also running Hamachi, make sure you both are in the same Network.
When you found the network you want to connect to, Click on the "POWER ICON" in the bottom left corner of Hamachi. After that does its thing, Click on the "TRIANGLE" icon on the right, and click "Join an existing network".
At this window, Type in the name of the Network and Password. If all goes correctly, Congrats! You are now on the Hamachi network.
[edit] Tips
- In the Hamachi main menu, At the top you should see something like 5.199.94.148. This is your Hamachi IP Address. Under this is your Nickname, and under that is a lighter shade of Grey. These are all the other users in the Hamachi network. Beside their nicknames are their Hamachi IP Addresses.
- You must be in the same Network as the host to play on their server.
- If you cannot connect, confirm Hamachi is running.
[edit] Troubleshooting
