Hi,
I tried play with 1 person. We both have within IP( I don't know if is it correct name, but we both are in sublocal network, so I need to forward ports on router, second person can't do this )
We get error with connection, after some time of trying to connect.
Does Hamachi work good with Paraworld? Because we tried this, but don't work. I don't run hamachi with persons, which I can connect. So I can't test this.
Strange is that simultaneous I saw 1 available game in internet, when he saw 5 games.
And we can connect during play in Disciples 2.
How affect on trying to connect having difference version of game( for example I have 1.00, he 1.01.) I think that this situation make impossible to connect.
Problem with connecting in multiplayer

Yes, Hamachi works with Paraworld. It even helps some people who fail to port-forward the game in their router. But this is not always the case.
Sources of problems:
1st) Boosterpack installed in a wrong way / missing -enable boosterpack1
2nd) Any kind of manipulation of the files (modding)
3rd) Different steps of installation than that: Paraworld -> Boosterpack -> Editor -> Community Patch (you can do it differently of course but this worked the best)
4th) Software Firewalls - Paraworld.exe, pcserver.exe, pwclient.exe
5th) Router (Port Forwarding) - This should be your problem if you have already checked the others (I'm sure you did Tomeis).
If he does have a firewall in his router or his modem he MUST change the ports. There are several routers with auto-configurationing on the market that will work as well. My parents have one of those but this still doesn't work 100% and causes lags.
6th) Did he tried to reboot his PC, and tried to restart the game. On Sunday I could connect after restarting the game. Also one told me that he can only connect once then he has to restart Paraworld.
What router does he use? Why can't he change the ports? Ever tried a different software than hamachi ? It seems there are some that make port forwarding unneccesary.
About hamachi: It does not work without port forwarding on my parents router (Fritzbox WLAN).
I had a router that didn't work with Paraworld even if I moved my PC to the DMZ. -> I plugged it off and connected directly to the modem. Instant win - perfect connection even for 6 player games. So maybe he should try that.

Nice idea with reboting PC and game. Thanks for answer.
He can't change ports because he don't have easily access to router. Router is in his neighbour and his neighbour shared internet for 5-6 person. Well, bad situation for changing something in router.
For me is strange that, we once play in Disciples 2, when in Paraworld we can't get connect. Hmm, maybe "ping" is good for D2, but bad for Paraworld?
Funny (and annoying) situation is when he wrote that his version is 1.01 after spent time on trying to connect, when I tell him before that I have version 1.00.
Other time when he saw 5 games on internet, he can't too connect to them.
Well, I think that guilty is incompatible of our version of game or lacking port forwarding or his internet is "weak" by too many people on one cable.
I don't know software different than hamachi. Do you know any?

I know that this "method" isn't perfect solution
But he lose desire to playing multi. That's why we gave up with trying to connect.
