traffic giant

I am not 100% sure, but UDP:1900 seems to be used for internet protocol (at least).
When monitored by a firewall, which detects connection requests on ports, I get in the log, that UDP port 1900 is accessed.
For LAN play I am unfortanelly not sure, since this option is grayed out (hence IPX support must be installed or something like this)...

Regarding the activity on the Jowood forum, it always was modearate to very low...
Hence at the time as map editor became available, the maps were being heavy created/discussed/commented.

Jowood forum is not active as much, as Jowood gave up Traffic Giant a long time ago, and focused on Transport Giant instead.

In German forum:

1) http://forum.jowood.com/showthread.php? ... t=netzwerk, it is stated, that ports 1900 and 2300 must be opened for sure.
Of course, should there be a firewall, "vg.exe" must be granted access to the LAN/Net.

They also state later the ports:
1900
2300
1107
...
47624

2) http://forum.jowood.com/showthread.php? ... t=netzwerk states:

IPX must be used, TCP/IP will not work.

3) but, http://forum.jowood.com/showthread.php? ... t=netzwerk states:

TG works also with TCP/IP. Translation:

"Should there be problems, here is a little explanation (I am assuming that at least on one of the two computers the IP adress had been assigned): The one who leads the game leaves the IP Adress 127.0.0.1 (local address), the one who is going to connect must of course know the IP of the first computer (the local one, if played in LAN), in example: 192.168.2.5, depending what was set...

Works great, except that the game crashes after a few hours..."

This game has great graphic, but horribly buggy code (unfortanelly)...
