This is great news.Glad to see this awesome game is still alive,at least a little. I've installed the hamachi and have a nice list of names,all in grey. I run my dune and click lan and see a dune 2k lobby. I click and try to join,but nothing happens. I assume it may have to do with my router settings? Or ports I need to open? I cant seem to find any documents in any of my dune files to tell what port settings might need to be? I'm pretty slow in that area,so even changing them might take me a bit to figure out. But does anyone know the numbers they should be if that's what my problem is? Edit: I found the settings. This link was very helpful http://logmeinwiki.com/wiki/Hamachi:Gaming_over_Hamachi I should be ready for action now!! ;D

I saw a link somewhere in the message boards here, but I dont think that will do you any good. The westwood server is down (probobly for good)and I think registration is for online play, Which also seems to be gone for good. Try the register later option and get patch from this site. If not try to look for that link in tech issues perhaps?? Good Luck and by the way, Dune Online Really Rocks!! Too bad nobodys figured out someplace to play,like xwis, which seemes to work but nobodys ever there :'(

I dont know much about all that , Im no tech wiz... but I have run xwisc on both win 98 and me and I couldnt get it to work on me till I changed dll. I think I may have done that a long time ago on the 98. ????

Amigabot, Did you install the rotorz dll patch? I did because i couldnt login either. It seemed to help. I got it from shygirls site.save it right to dune 2000 internet folder and replace old dll. I dont know if when I tested this site if the other player did this.Maybe it makes a difference? Otherwise it might be in settings somewhere need changed? I also instaled no cd patch so disk doesnt have to be in drive, maybe that help too?

Well I finally found someone else in the xcc network to test this and it does not seem to work.It seemed to take you out after a few minutes.You were still there but others names would disappear and chat wouldnt work after a minute. You could talk on page though. Host of game couldnt see others names or mesagges but joiners could.Then it would kick u out of game start saying host not found.Weird. I guess it doesnt work then :'( sorry.This was the only place I could find to play online. and ophirus, I've Had my dune for about 5 years and havent tried to play online again until recently, but I,m sure there are still copies availible online somewhere?? E-bay maybe?? I hope someone finds a way to play online again because it rocks!!

Thanks Amiga. I think I found something that works.Using the XWISC tool and manually changing the IP address at the top to 62.216.18.38 then clicking set and starting dune takes me to xcc online. It appears to work and have 3 different rooms.alman,atredies,and corrino.Nobody is in any of them however so I cant test it out.If someone has v1.06 unmodified please come and help me test this out. I cant believe dune can be dead online!! Its one of the most fun parts of this awsome game!! XWIS can be downloaded at http://xwis.net/ Come play!!Dont let Dune Die!!!

I recently tried to play online and could not connect through westwood. It said invalid password.I used to play about a year ago but now it wont let me on.I've also tried entering a new nick. No luck.Then I tried to connect with xwisc and it said invalid serial number. Is there anybody out there still playing online??? Where???
