Yeah, I just got the whole process done! Bootcamp was a cinch. I'm now running windows flawlessly. Not to figure out this whole bridging thing.

Acid, are you there to help me out? :smile:

Yo acid I got everything working well, except idk how to bridge my computer to my xbox. Could you help me get this hooked up?

I got all the zone alarm stuff ballin' and stuff like that. I just can't get my xbox connected through my PC


Definately, sorry about last night, I had a family emergency (My 17 year old dog died, had him my whole life:.()

I'm on now though, hit me up with an invite

Do you think I should put pictures on the tutorial?

There is a way, but the problem is that there is a good chance you won't get host, so I say, don't even bother. Just hook up with people on here if you don't have any friends on.

Re: The Best Bridging Tutorial

Great tutorial acid x nubble! Works perfectly, does exactly what it's supposed to if you follow these exact steps. Don't need ANYTHING in the Expert section or anything. So easy to do =D

BTW, Wingman is pretty dumb. For some reason, almost every1 who tried to bridge them self host in it with a friend can't find a game like me and acid and a lot of other people on here who've said something about it...

Re: The Best Bridging Tutorial

Hey, me and my friend both have done this and get host but there are times during the connection box check-off screen where it connects us to a game before we can even wait 10 seconds to switch the slider back from high to medium. I'm not quite sure why it's happening, I also have a few questions along with that one.

-When starting a game party is it necessary to have started Zone Alarm after the party has been made, or can zone alarm be turned on even before starting the game party?

-Is it neccessary to "Rapidly change the INTERNET ZONE SECURITY SLIDER from MED to HIGH four or five times" before beginning the game search, every time? Or was this just in order to pickup your friends IP addresses? Which brings me to something related to the rapid switch step...

-When I checked the Alerts and Logs, my friends IP address didn't even show up, they were all mine (192.168...) and mine didn't show for my friend either when he tried. We ended up both finding out our IPs and sharing them with each other. Does this have anything to do with us not always getting host (as explained earlier)?

I'm not quite sure why I'm having these issues, but regardless, great guide!

Thanks man, I'm just here to help... I'll be setting up a tutorial SOON as to how to SET UP the bridge instead of just USING ZAP:thumbup:

Question 1 - Are your friend's IP's the only ones on your trusted? If not, it could be because other IP's you have on trusted may be people on the opposing team

Question 2 - No, only use that to get your Friend's IP's. Don't have to repeat unless new people join you.

Questions 3 - That has happened to me before, and usually if you just wait awhile, the IP's will start showing up... You may have to uninstall and reinstall ZAP


If you have anything else- just ask
