Some tips about hosting Victoria 2 games. Now, go to Victoria 2, and follow the hosting steps from the above step. People are able to DDOS you meaning they will shut down your internet for a time being making you unable to host games and people are unable to connect. Copy the IP address from there and privately send this to the players, remember, DO NOT POST THIS IP PUBLICLY. Now, click add and then go to the website.

In the Internal Port option you want to put '1631'. In the External Port place you want to put '1631-1640' just like that. Then go to External Port and Internal Port. Anyways, go down to Internal Host and put your IPv4 Address. For External Host, if you only want to host to one person or one computer then you would put their IP there but why would you do that when you can just kick them. Next go to External host and Internal host. Now, the Service option won't matter so go to the Protocol option, there select the option that says TCP - UDP or the option that includes both of those. This doesn't change anything but makes it easier to find later on. Now, first, type into the Custom service name 'Victoria 2'. Now, you must find a menu that will be shown in another image. In Spectrum you must go to the Advanced, then Access Control, then Port Forwarding. Now, find the option where it says Port Forwarding.

Don't worry about being hacked, people can't access your router without your default gateway, and you can also change the username and password when you login. Otherwise, if you are using Spectrum, the username and password will both be 'admin'. If your family has changed it, ask another family member or roommate for the username and password. Now the username and password is why you need to look this up. For example, 'how to login to my router spectrum'. Now, some internet providers might be different so I would look up 'how to login to my router (internet provider)'. The menu and how it looks will depend on your internet provider.

This is how to long into your router settings. It might bring you to a screen saying it is not private and not safe, just find the option that says to continue or proceed to the site.

Now first you must hit the Windows Key and the R key at the same time on your keyboard. This method is mainly used for bigger games with probably more than 5 friends. The second method is called port forwarding. If you have everything correct it should work. Then they will type in that IP you sent them and they will click join. Now you have the game up, when you have done this, tell your friend the game is up, (s)he will click on 'Multiplayer' then 'Join Internet Game'. Then you must click on 'Host', don't worry about the name, and click on 'Host'. Make sure your friend does the same thing. Anyway, next you must click on 'Multiplayer' then go to the top of that menu screen and change the name from 'Player' to whatever you want. So if you load up any mod, the checksum can change but it must be the same as your friend, you shouldn't have any issues with checksums unless you have edited game files. At the bottom left corner of your screen, it will say 'V2 v3.04 (WNVU)'. First, you will need to see if your friend has the same checksum as you. Next, launch up Victoria 2 either vanilla or with any mods. To the right of the power button there will be an IP, right click on the IP and click 'Copy !Pv44 address' or on Radmin it will just say 'Copy IP'. They will type in the Network ID and password. Next, your friends will click on 'Network' then 'Join an existing network'. Next you will type in a Network ID which is like a name, just make it simple like 'Victoria 2 bois' and type in a password. Next you are going to click on 'Network' then 'Create a new network'. First, you are going to need to make sure the power button is either yellow (Hamachi) or blue (Radmin). You will know when you have completed the steps when a menu pops up that looks like the menu to the right.
