Visible "server"

[Nvidia]

Sorry guys this is an often discussed topic i think but i still don't get it. How do i get my game visible for other players to join? I tried so much, i think im just to silly..

Nvi

 

[Null]

$Host::BroadcastMaster=True;
Network::startHeartbeats();

IIRC

 

[Nvidia]

where do i have to enter that?

 

[Null]

Console in-game. Press Ctrl+` to open/close the console. You can actually stick it at the end of some file, but I don't remember which one.

You should not have to do that anymore, are you sure people are not seeing your server? Or does nobody wants to play with you?

Hey, hey Volt Cruelerz, how about you don't smurf on the forums, especially not with this account, hm? Thanks.

Nvidia, what Volt Cruelerz or "Null" told you, should suffice to solve your problem (assuming you don't run into any port issues), but let us know if you need anything else.

it still doesn't work.. what the hell am i doing wrong? I started a game on the public-test channel. opened the console and entered the two lines you told me to enter.. but it still wasn't visible for a friend... -.-

Elder can't find it, as he says

Setting public server to yes on the create game page server should work. Give the master server a moment to see it maybe ?

 

[Nvidia]

tryed everything.. i also can't find his server.. Maybe it is a port issue as gheist guessed?

You still have to port forward on your router.

 

[aus.hsp]

$Host::BroadcastMaster=True;
Network::startHeartbeats();

IIRC

No need for that anymore.

 

[Dabbleh]

Port: 28001
Forward it.

 

[aus.hsp]

Port: 28001
Forward it.

It's best to do a range, in case multiple instances of the game are running; so just in case port forward a range of ports: 28001 ~ 28003.

As i've said in other threads, also try to make sure that you're forwarding the ports with the right protocol
UDP.
(I always forward for both when it doesn't specify)

you may be doing everything correctly. I am also having a problem on my work server , getting it to show up. It appears that the its binding to loopback instead of my NAT ip. I'm looking into it. Do you have multile IP's or network adapaters installed >?

ehm.. WHAT?
