Default AAAH! HELP

I have a firewall and it prevents me from playing SE IV with any of my friends Online in any way. Does anyone know which TCP ports I need enabled? My firewall (which is based in a router) can take both TCP and UDP, but I've gathered that SE IV only needs TCP. Does anyone know which one I need?

Welcome to the forum.

Most of us do not play TCI/IP play as it still seems to have some bugs that can become rather agervating.

What we do is play by email or play by web via www.pbw.cc

Playing by email is just as fast as playing by TCI/IP.

I hope this helps.

I checked that one out and it doesn't have exact port numbers, which is what I really need. I already have quite a few open now for other applications, so I suppose it is possible that I could play it. If anyone knows the actual numbers, I'd be grateful for them being posted. Also, several friends of mine say that organic weapons are only useful in the fist part of the game. Anyone got an argument I can use to prove them wrong?
