    Hacking Any way to play alpha past intended period?

    That worked perfectly! Thanks for going over that with me. I was definitely making it too complicated. It's all on the same network, so it makes sense that I don't need to run a real proxy server that I could connect to from anywhere. I don't have time tonight to fiddle with actually logging the...

    Hacking Any way to play alpha past intended period?

    OK, I think you're right about IP address problems. The Netgear router uses 192.168.0.1. Its webpage has an attached devices section. The PC's private IP is 198.168.0.34. If I run ipconfig, it gives the same address as Ethernet adapter Ethernet 4 / IPv4 Address. It also has a header "Ethernet...

    Hacking Any way to play alpha past intended period?

    Yes, the Wololo guide is the one I was looking at. Good idea. I found an Android app called "IP Tools - Network Utilities" that can do port scanning. As a test, I scanned Google's IP address on port 80 and it showed that as open. I then tried my IP address detected by SKFU Pr0xy (which I...

    Hacking Any way to play alpha past intended period?

    I got in on the Nioh 2 alpha on PS4, which runs May 24-June 2. It requires you to sign into PSN to play it. Presumably this is just for verification that the alpha is active, as the game itself won't be on-line only. Is there any way to make it playable after the alpha period expires? And even...

    Hardware Connecting Joycon's to PC Tutorial (With Analog Support!)

    I'm pretty late to the party here, but I do think split joycons are the most comfortable controller out there, so I figured I'd try using them for PC games instead of the 360 controller. To be worthwhile, I would need to get them working as a single controller, have true analog sticks, and have...
