When my friends try to join my server from the main screen only my IP is available and when they click on my server they only get that SERVER DOES NOT ANSWER message...
Is there a way i can fix this?
Thanks
Server Does Not Answer
Re: Server Does Not Answer
Do you have the ports open/redirected?
There's a difference between knowing your shit, and knowing you're shit. Grammar does matter.
Re: Server Does Not Answer
Well, it sounds like this is a client server. Did you start this from the master list?
Re: Server Does Not Answer
yes i think it IS a client server. my freinds can see my ip adress in the master list but it says i wont answer. or that i am unreachable

If you started a server by choosing "Host Game" in your client, then it's a client server. Use the dedicated server instead.
Re: Server Does Not Answer
That doesn't help the issue at hand (it helps performance, of course). To solve the connection problems, you need to set up port forwarding.

Ah, I thought I had read somewheres along the lines something about the client maybe blocking more than the dedicated server or something.
Or something.
