2 computers on same router

[Syndrome]

not sure if its possible to change the ports for fg2 to something other than 1802 for one computer... but i cant have 2 computers with the same port forwarded... any other options?

Yes it is possible. Just to be clear if both computers are not hosting at the same time you don't have to change the port settings for one. If both computers are on the same network and only one is hosting then just have the player use the hosts *local* IP address to connect.

To change the port


The command line is controlled through your Windows shortcut that runs FG.

Steps to set port (Need to be performed on all machines in game session)
* Find icon or menu that you use to start FG.
* Right-click on it.
* Select Properties in the drop-down menu.
* Find the Target field
* At the very end of the target field add -pXXXX, where XXXX is the new port number you want to try.

Here's an example of the target field on my machine with a port option:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Fantasy Grounds II\FantasyGrounds.exe" -p8001
