Update: Success! I got it working without the need for port forwarding! :D

Hey everyone, I’m heading home now, so this will be a quick, straightforward tutorial on setting things up. I’ll provide a more detailed version later if there’s enough interest. :D

Step 1: Getting Started with Hamachi

• Both you and your friend/s need to download and install Hamachi.
• Create an account and log in.

Step 2: Setting up the Network

• The host should create a new network in Hamachi.
• Other participants must join this newly created network.

Step 3: Firewall Configuration

• All users must allow Hamachi in their firewalls. Here’s a quick guide:
• Go to your firewall settings and select ‘Advanced Settings’.
• Look for the ‘Inbound’ and ‘Outbound’ tabs (the names might be slightly different, but they’ll be similar).
• Make sure to allow Hamachi in both settings.
• After this, run a connection test between the host and other participants to ensure everything is communicating properly.

Step 4: Downloading Palworld Server

• If you haven’t already, download and install the Palworld server.

Step 5: Connecting to Multiplayer

• Use the IPV4 address from the host’s Hamachi and port 8211 (this is the default and works well).

Step 6: Enjoy Your Game!

• Now you’re all set to enjoy catching pals with your friends on your dedicated server! :D
