[ikka]

hello! i have one problem and i hope u guys can help me fix it. I have opened ports :
20000-20003, 30000-30003, 40000-40003 and 50000-50003. And i edited config.pk with my ip and ports. i have created 1 servers one on 127.0.0.1 and one on my IP. and now my friends cant connect on my IP. I can but only on 127.0.0.1. plEASE help me

you gotta forward those ports and your friends are supposed to connect to your ip (

[ikka]

i know they have to connect to my ip lol

 

[Munchkins]

well did u forward your ports then?

*edit* try searching, cause im pretty sure this has been answered before

 

[ikka]

yep. i already told u i opened ports.

 

[Munchkins]

ok u opened them but did u forward them ?

 

[ikka]

yeye thanks! hehe

 

[lothera]

i opened and forwarded and have the same problem as ikka here... any help?

 

[Munchkins]

did u change xlate-e...and all that other stuff?

btw u know u can just pm ikka since he\she fixed it..

 

[lothera]

yes i change xlate-e and that is what breaks it.. when it is at 127.0.1 it works, when its at my ip it stops... maybe my ip is too long?

some launchers use server.ini to connect to a ip.

 

[lothera]

i use vladi launcher... maybe if i change launcher you think it could help?

 

[Munchkins]

wait you want other people to connect or for yourself to connect?
btw to connect you gotta put your lan ip, go to start>run>cmd then type >>> ipconfig <<<<, thats only for you to connect not other people..for other people use whatismyip.com... i dunno if that help but w\e

 

[lothera]

it doesn't, i already know, i put my global ip.. but it doesn't work.. maybe my ip is too long?

 

[lothera]

and sorry, i forgot to mention this, but yes, i want my friends who live on other states to connect :S

 

[Munchkins]

no i don't think its cause of your ip being to long...well are u positively sure that you forwarded your ports? cause if its not that..then your just not meant to have a server =S

 

[lothera]

100% sure about ports:

maybe i am not meant to have a server with anyone besides me on it O_O

 

[Munchkins]

well...i see a lonely road ahead of you...
seriously idk what the problem is anymore...do you have your server running when there trying to connect?

 

[lothera]

lol yes i do.

just thought of something.. on server-side, is there anyplace i need to put my ip in? maybe in authserver.txt or something? O_O

-- EDIT: maybe switching repacks can help?

 

[Munchkins]

no just xlate-e and server ini if you have one but your using vladi's repack so your not supposed to have one...

well i guess this means your screwed lol
