You have to play with a friend that you can chat with (through MSN, ICQ, http://chat.managames.com , etc ...).
One of you has to host the game and give his IP address to the other one that will join the game.

Important :
- the one who hosts the game cannot be behind a NAT
- if you have a firewall, you have to open the port 4321
- so far, there's no central server that keeps a track of all hosted games, so you can't find all existing games within Tennis Elbow menus

[EDIT: it is now possible to find all games available on Internet, with the latest version of Tennis Elbow ! ]

I don't have a NAT myself so I'm really not sure how to set it up, but I guess it should be possible to configure your router so your hosted game will be visible for people over the Internet...
If you already set up any kind of server behind a NAT (game, FTP, web, etc...), then the procedure should be pretty close to set up an hosted Tennis Elbow game.

Hello,

no, you need nothing special... Jut download Tennis Elbow

The new version is just out and will let you find all games available on Internet ! :)

https://www.managames.com/download.php?TE2006_ef5.exe

Once you created a game and waiting for another player to join it, you can swap to another application; Tennis Elbow will play a warning sound when someone joins your game..!

Hello,

yes you have to keep Tennis Elbow on, but you can swap to another application, or even run a 2nd instance of Tennis Elbow ! (but then, be careful with the auto-saving on exit of options, players, and world tour)

When a player joins your game, Tennis Elbow will play a warning sound, so you'll know you have to get back to it ..!

And be patient, sometimes, there's only 1 player per hour. If everybody is patient at 1st, I'm sure it'll help to build a bigger community, and after, it'll have enough players to not wait more than 10 min to play..!
