Does anyone know the TCP/UDP ports to forward for WBC III TCP/IP internet games that need to get through a router?
Haven't needed to set this up for a while and last time I was able to find the ports quickly on ye olde internet; no luck with Google this time though.
FYI, the standard DirectX 8+ ports of 2300-2400 and 6073 UDP do not seem to work -- even though one site suggested them and my memory and the Internet agree that WBC2 did use the standard DirectX 7 (and earlier) ports of 47624 TCP and 2300-2400 both back in its day. (Tried those with WBC III too in case they had hard coded them instead of simply using the installed DirectX version's default ports; no joy.)
