Hello.

[PaoPao]

Here's a hasty introduction from me.

So hey, I've been playing RO for a while but I haven't played for half a year. My girlfriend and I decided to play again but it really depends on whether or not heRO will work for her. She's a mac user without bootcamp so we'll see whether or not the downloads work on her using Crossover Game.

Keep your fingers crossed :D

[RoChickita]

[mahawirasd]

ooh hi thar, i had the same issue when i started out here

lucky i did my research from RMS and the server's website and really HeRO is GF-friendly... my then-GF-now-wife can attest to that

GL and HF!

[PaoPao]

Lol, apparently she can't connect to the server =S

If you're having trouble connecting when using crossover something similar to the fix in this guide might work too:

Obviously has to be adapted since mac doesn't have the same firewall software. But if a redirection can be done the same way you should be able to get it going.

[PaoPao]

Yeah, I've gotten to the part where I'll need iptables. So I have to find an equivalent for the mac or its a no go.

*edit*

So tried once again to connect to the server rerouting it using ipfw but to no avail.

sudo ipfw add fwd heroserver.bounceme.net,6901 tcp from any to [ip that it was connecting to before]

Well, I guess I need to find a iptable equivalent for mac or else it won't work. Unless someone can tell me what's wrong with the code I used.

[TPC]

I've never used ipfw so I have no idea. Try to redirect some random ip to google.com and then go to the ip in a web browser to see if you get google, just to see if its working.

[PaoPao]

Hmm, I just tried redirecting random ips and it doesn't work. That must mean I incorrectly configured ipfw. I might need the help of mac experts in order to make this work.
