How to use TCP mode to direct connect ? A group of loyal Chinese players need help!!!

Close Combat: Panthers in the Fog is the first new release (not a re-make of a previous games) in years in the critically acclaimed Close Combat series. It details the desperate German counter-attack at Mortain, the last chance of the Wehrmacht to stave off defeat in Normandy. Can you match the tenacity of the American defenders of Hill 314? Or can you succeed where the Panzers failed, driving through to the sea and changing history? Improved 32-bit graphics and the ability to control more squads than ever bring the Close Combat engine to a new level.

How to use TCP mode to direct connect ? A group of loyal Chinese players need help!!!

Post by longbowcai »

We are a group of chinese closecombat series players who played multiplayer game for more then ten years,we brought every generation of closecombat game.We are very grateful to have such a good military simulation game for us to play more than 10 years.
In the previous series ,such as TLD or LSA, we played multiplayer game by useing TCP mod to connect directly,it is very smooth and fast way for us. But when we brought CC6 Panther in the fog and CC7 Gateway to Caen,we found that we can not use TCP mode to connect directly any more ,this option is not showed in the multiplayer online interface,the only option is to connect through the lobby.As everyone knows ,China has a great firewall , if we connect the foreign server ,that will be very slow and lag, so we have a bad experience in playing multiplayer game by connecting through the lobby, we would prefer to direct connect by TCP mode,
We have to give up playing multiplayer games in Panther in the fog or Gateway to Caen even that we brought them both, but we really want to solve this problem so that we can continue to buy new products of closecombat series.
Does any one has any idea how to establish a direct connection by traditional Tcp mode in Panther in the fog or Gateway to Caen ? We really can not find any option button in the menu.
Is it necessary to open the port 1944 for showing option button of the TCP mode in multiplayer game menu? then how to open the port 1944?
Thank you very much for the people who can help us!
