Halo.exe and Haloce.exe can be modified with command parameter/arguments to achieve specific settings. In my situation, I have a router (thus I have a private IP), and I set port forwarding to allow port 2302 2303 80 to pass to my IP. But the attempt does not work. I guess that I should change the server IP halo.exe is using (which is obviously my private IP) to my public IP. Thus, I add -ip xx.xx.xx.xx command after the shortcut. I then open up Halo, and all goes fine...until I reach the "Start Game" button. The server IP showing is my public IP, which is what i want, but when I try to click on "Start Game", there is NO response. Nothing happens. I keep on clicking with no avail. The same problem persists with haloce.exe.
Halo.exe and haloce.exe are both version 1.70. I suspect maybe it is the new exe that creates the problem. Any ideas?
