- Make an exception for ports 44405 and 55901 in your Firewall.
- Run Client Tool.exe and edit Client\Data\Custom\Common.z and add your IPv4 IP. This is for YOU to run the game and connect.
- Make a copy of Common.z and edit it to have your Global IP (Google 'What's my IP'). Give this with your client to any friends that want to connect to your PC.

Now you should be able to run your game, connect to it, and have friends connect :).

Okay, I'll explain a bit more:

- Yes, you edited the Common.z correctly, I must've said the wrong exe, sorry, I don't use this repack.
- You connect with your local IPv4.
- Your friends connect with your global IP.
- You need to have Common.z called Common.z, for your friends too, so put theirs in a folder or something so it can keep the same name and tell them to use that one.
- You can leave the firewall on, just make exception for ports 44405 and 55901. That is the GameServer and LoginServer.

Nice, I'll be learning C++ and messing around with the source when I've finished my weekend jobs, :). Hope the testing keeps going well.

Make 55901 a TCP exception as well, and just make sure when you give client to your friends you rename that Common.z, to be Common.z. Easiest way is just copy your client folder and call it FriendClient or something, then delete your Common.z from it and rename the Common.z, so you know which client you're giving them.

it will not work f its is name by Common.z,?

and mate i will upload the whole client?

how about the serverlist.txt / serverinfo.txt?

i will give them to my config? or just the common.z

If your friends don't have a compatible client for your season 8 server you need to give them your whole client, and give them the edited common.z with your global IP. It will not work if common.z is called common.z, because the name needs to be unchanged.

how about the server list and serverinfo? (friend pc config now)
what ip she/he will use? my ipv4 ip?

No no, okay, this is how it works:

1) You have your server folder with GameServer, DataServer, ExDB, etc.
2) You run server with the server shortcuts
3) You open client folder and run main.exe.

To make sure client main.exe runs, you need to have proper IP in the Common.z file. When you host your server, if you want to play, you need to use your local IPv4. If you want friends to play, they need to use the Common.z file with a global IP in it. Is this easier to understand?

So, you have two client folder, one for you, one for friend. Put Common.z for friends in friendclient folder\data\custom and then give them the friendclient folder. When they want to play, they can just run main.exe and it connects to your server if it is online.

ohhh they dont need have to get my serverlist and server info too?

just the common.z with config of global ip?

sorry mate im just confusing

Nope, they don't need serverlist and serverinfo, all they need is everything in the client folder, with the edited Common.z, :). No need to say sorry, I remember when I started MU and was confused too, that's why I like helping.
