ehm 07 error v.3.0.4 network 160... and counting

[King_Louis]

yep playing EHM 2007 online and got:

Error v.3.0.4 network 160 after clicking "ok" button : 160,161,163,164,167,169. Not in order.

Everythings licensed we're both on XP and we're using Hamachi to set up the network.

P.S. How can they make such a great game that has more potential then EA's nhl series AND COME UP WITH SUCH A
&*()?&*%?&%?&?) WAY OF PUTTING UP AN ONLINE GAME! I've never played football manager but yesterday, looking TWO FULL DAYS in a row on how to set a online league everything i've read said the same thing on setting up a online game on football manager 2010... COME ON MAN! You've got three years to figure out that it su**.
Once again...(taking a breaht here) ?&*(%?%&?%?%(%?*%(%&?$%?#$%*(*&?.
Thank god there's some chinese that came up with HAMACHI!

It had to came out now i'm good and ready to solve a network problem. Thank you all...

As a heads up, EHM 2007 isnt very stable. EHM 2005 is used more for online games.

Having said the above, I have not set up 07 myself so I am unfamiliar with your error. Not sure what Hamachi is but you shouldnt need anything special to set up the online game.

1. Start online game.
2. Open your router ports
3. Give your friend your IP address

Let me know what you have done and I'll try and help you out of find you an answer.

In the meantime, you should try to join an online league. It's great fun and you will also learn a lot about how they are run. You can sign up here:

For connecting to each other i use Hamachi wich is a program that serves as a host for the game so you don't have to open up any ports and mess with your router.

I've closed the game and i did run it again and no error msg but i didn't sim to the day i was when it crashed.

If i get to much trouble running the 07 i'll get the 05 maybe is it free? cause i've baught the license for 07.

From what I hear, you can use the 2005 demo to play online, and being a demo, it is in fact free. The freebie, however, is limited to playing online. If you want to go offline and play a solo game, you'll be restricted to demo features (unless of course you buy the full game).

I do believe the host still needs the full version of the game though. The host is merely a gm in the game though, not sure if hamachi will work toward what you want. Opening ports is dirt simple anyways.

Since the error message i restarted from my lest save and we're now in our second season and for now everythings running smoothly! By the way i've followed step by step the way of opening ports and never it never worked. Spended a whole weekend on that and with hamachi got it on first try without messing anything up! Just download, install, create a network and boom got it. We're just two playing in our league and don't know if i would go for more cause the game seems to be ready to crash any time... just save often!

Price you have to pay for such a fun game.

You can only use the demo to play online if you aren't the host. 99% sure of that. And no King Louis, it isn't free because you've purchased 07 sadly; it's still full price (and that's HIGH for such an old game).
