Hamachi + GMod = server connection failed after 4 retries
Hello Community,
My friend and I wanted to play GMod together as usual (with Hamachi)
but its not working anymore (tried sv_lan0, connecting to him)
Is there a solution for this or is this method patched?

My steps:
1. Start Hamachi
2. Start GMod
3. Browse Maps (settings 2 player (no lan) )
4. wait for friend to join...
5. not working (tried sv_lan0)
6. not working (closed map (setting lan enabled) )
7. not working either (again used sv_lan0)

My friends steps:
1. Start Hamachi
2. Start GMod
3. Open Dev Console (connect ip4)
4. server connection failed after 4 retries (everytime)

We are both in the same network (hamachi group)

Thank you.

If all fails, try IP3?

"I've once had this problem for years, but you will often find out that you are missing one obvious and important ingredient to make it work".
Just keep up the research if all of this does not work!
Because this worked for me

Just be warned that you will often have 50-600 ping depending on how far away your friend is, so it might end up being unplayable for you "if your connecting to him".
Thank you. My friend is just 1 house away = my neighbour :D

Both of your network services have to be running. Make sure of that by completing the following steps:

1. Press Windows key + R (If on windows. Otherwise, go to whatever the counterpart of command prompt is and navigate to "Services"). Type in "services.msc" without the quotes.

2. Look for "LogMeIn Hamachi." They're listed in alphabetical order unless you have changed preferences. Start or re-start the services for yourself and tell your friend to do the same.

3. Restart the server and try again. If all else fails:

- Move houses and use their network, providing a LAN.
- Port forward
- Get a better VPN

God, I wish I was that privileged to live close to my mate, good luck.

Its not working for me ;(
I dont know why but its again connection failed after 4 retries.
What does sv_pure do?
sv_pure: Only allow client to use certain files.

-1 - Do not apply any rules or restrict which files the client may load.
0 - Apply rules in cfg/pure_server_minimal.txt only.
1 - Apply rules in cfg/pure_server_full.txt and then cfg/pure_server_whitelist.txt.
2 - Apply rules in cfg/pure_server_full.txt.

See cfg/pure_server_whitelist_example.txt for more details.
I dont know how to use it when i enter sv_pure 1 2 it showes me this
sv_pure 1 either
pure 2 either
Can you tell me how that works?
Thank you for your help
