Windows VPN and games

hello,

i have successfully setup a windows VPN server and other people can join my
computer with it. We are able to play IPX Based games like starcraft and
Tzar this way without having to setup port forwarding in the routers.
However TCP\IP based games do not work because the client connects with a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.255. Is there any way to allow a person joining
my windows VPN to have a subnet of 255.255.0.0 so that TCP IP packets can be
sent, and these games will work?
i know this is possible with VPN systems like Hamachi, but have not been
able to get this to work with the regular VPN system that is a part of
windows.

i checked the hamachi subnet and the VPN connection is 255.0.0.0 , so i am
trying to emulate this using windows VPN -- but how????
