No true! Windows has loopback device, it's just hidden and not visible by
default, like many other things in Windows! You can even set up Windows to show
loopback device in Network Connections as adapter (google for exact steps how
to do it)!

About game - I don't think it's address problem, I think it's the problem with
that function, returning wrong, empty or bad address! You have to think from
other side - for example - Age of Empires III gets addresses just fine!
