Aditya Kavoor’s Blog

It feels great. Seriously. I’m really flattered that fifty thousand people would find anything here interesting enough and would like to visit on a fairly regular basis. You might think most of the contribution to the counter might go to the spammers, but I have faith in WordPress Stats that increment only on a human visitor

Stats are interesting to only some, while others might seem it as baseless, but to all those around I would like to share something. Over the past one year I have made over 75 posts in about 12 categories which have over 320 comments and not to forget over a 1200 spam blocked by Akismet. There have been a wide range of topics on which I have written over these days with a bulk of them being Test Drive reports and Ubuntu related stuff. The most popular post by an immense margin is the NFSMW Hamachi Lan Play Guide which makes up for a major part of the hits.

Finally, no matter who you are and why you are here I extend my sincere thanks to you for visiting this blog and inspiring me to write more. I enjoy your comments and e-mails, and I hope you find something useful or helpful in these posts. A huge thanks to WordPress which is hosting this blog and making it a search friendly site to provide easy access to readers across the world. Let me know if there is any particular topic you would like to find in this blog and I would try to include them. Cheers and best wishes. See you at 100,000

There is no count on the number of Need for Speed Most Wanted enthusiasts calling me for this. So, I decided to write a guide myself.I assume that you have bought an original copy of the game. (Pirates can stop reading here itself because this guide doesn’t work for them). You need 3 basic pre-requites before you move on.

1. NFS MW Patch 1.3 —> Get it here

2. Log Me In Hamachi —> Get it here

3. MW-Hamachi —> Get it here

Here we go :

Step 1. Install the game.

Step 2. Install the NFSMW patch 1.3. Simple.

Step 3. Install Hamachi. Choose a nickname. Wait till it logs in. Create a new network. Ask your friends to join it.

Step 4. Copy the MW Hamachi to the game’s installation directory.

Step 5. You need to edit the file server.cfg with notepad. Paste your hamachi IP there.

Step 6. Run MW – Hamachi. Type speed.exe as shown.

Step 7. Thats it. We are all set. Host / Join the server. Go Go Go.

Step 8. The Host should create the server. Others should select session match.

Note: This wont work for pirated versions as there is a conflict between Patch 1.3 and the crack.Buy the game. Pay those great people at EA who make these wonderful games.

And for those who think they are MW champs, see this video.

How was that ?
