It's not hard to run teamspeak; more challenging to whisper to specific players privately, still more challenging to participate in voice chat when playing in a library :rofl:

however, IP issues make it tricksy to run it behind a router. BUT i once tried, with fraese, using it combined to hamachi and it worked just great.
On the other hand, this opens the hamachi can of worms... with shared files and such.
Daniel A said:Fnuco,
Do these IP issues behind a router only occur for the one who has the server installed or for both server and clients?
Hamachi must be avoided.
Fnuco said:we were both behind routers, and both had client AND server installed. i could not connect to him and he could not connect to me without hamachi.

balinus said:Thinking about that : 2 persons playing the same nation will make possible the conversion of potential Eu3 players to active Eu3 players. It will make the learning curve far less tough for newcomers.
Chaingun said:I suppose a scheme where the veteran does the critical actions or is assigned the main front and the beginner handling less critical tasks could work. For example it takes a while to learn how different MP warfare is from SP warfare, and this painful experience could become less painful if the beginner got to spectate more than issue orders.
