Hey there, syddraf, elcome to the site! :)

The MSN Zone was taken down a looong time ago. There ARE alternatives though. I know there are several, but the only one i've ever used is Hamachi.

You will BOTH need to download the program that is above, create your own network, then give each other the IP addresses that Hamachi gives you. Set your friends IP address (And vice-versa) in the game lobby, and you will then be able to play via multiplayer. :wink:

By the way, are you Welsh? Your name sounds Welsh to me. I'm typing from Wales too. :P

I'm trying to figure out how Matt sounds Welsh... :D

Also, with Hamachi you *may* need to forward a few ports. And make sure to disable your firewall.

well, http://www.armadafleetcommand.com/botf is the site to go for all botf and hamachi-related stuff and also for finding new players for example.

Well if nothing works, you may wanna try out bote here (it's completely playable like botf but without lags, 3d battle ;) and crashes (hopefully :))).

actually I'd like to see too if the connecting works thru your wireless router!
