Many People still not secure how to use this "Ghostbot Thing" so here it's
What is Garena Host Bot ?
Garena Host Bot is an advanced hosting program designed for Garena that allows the game creator to really control his game. Plus, it can improve connection or can keep alive players that with normal garena will drop out off your game.
It has many features that the standard method of creating a LAN Game doesn't have.
You cannot run any command while you are the only one in your game
If you wan't to enter commands you have to:
* alt+tab to the Garena Host Bot Game window (where it show the players) and type commands there
* wait for at least a player to join
(I'll fix this in the next version)
Common Problem. You can join your game but others can't see it !
You need to check if your ports 6112 to 6119 are opened or forwarded. Thre's a utility that checks if your ports are opened: PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall , if they're closed Garena Host Bot won't work. If you have a router find out how to forward your ports on that site.
