Re: New Server Not Working

You probably haven't set up port forwarding (correctly). Look here: http://wiki.armagetronad.net/index.php?title=HostingFAQ#I_did_that.2C_but_my_server_still_is_not_listed._What_else_can_be_wrong.3F The fact that it works initially is just your router using unusual NAT algorithms. The master's init...

"Just as much as anyone else"?? You die WAY less, and you're often the last player. If you want to use a mod, use it in games where ALL PLAYERS CONSENT.

Re: New Server Not Working

OK, this is getting strange. I've had the server working repeatedly, and yet every time I restart it, it shows up in the Master Server's list for ~5 minutes and then it goes away. I'm always able to play LAN games. What is going on?

Re: The inside scoop to magglass1's hack - May 7, 2010

OK, mag, I think you might be understating what your mod does JUST A LITTLE BIT. I have watched you play many times, and when you're following a line, you keep exactly the same distance from it 100% of the time. Also, just because you have the skill to code this mod, it doesn't make you a skillful A...

Hacks: Are They Cheating?

A certain player known as magglass1 has written a modification to Armagetron Advanced that allows him to follow a tail or wall perfectly without dying. While it can be defeated if you use the correct pattern, it also makes the game far less fun, because he refers to anyone (such as myself) with an o...

Re: New Server Not Working

Yes, I meant LAN games (LOCAL Area Network) and I got it fixed. I had some settings in my server_info.cfg that should have been in my settings_custom.cfg and vice versa. You can try it, it's called |TSD|CozaStyle.

Re: New Server Not Working

Oh, right, I forgot to mention that I used http://trongame.de/framework/index.php/upload/ to upload it. I have my MAP_FILE set correctly as well, and the 2 times I connected to the Online game (on a computer without the map) it worked great.

Re: New Server Not Working

OK, so I've gotten farther. I have the dedicated server set up on a 2.53 GHz P4 with 768 MB or RAM, and I can play local games on it happily. When I try to do an online game, however, it doesn't show up! I have TALK_TO_MASTER set to 1 in both my server_info.cfg and in my settings_custom.cfg. What am...

Thanks, that's much more helpful. Where can I do any of this? Google hasn't turned up much. :-(

Re: New Server Not Working

Already did that! If you use "Host Game", you have to have your MAP_FILE set to the map, or it'll just be a traditional game. I really need to know HOW to get it working with the online multiplayer, because it's a very fun map.

New Server Not Working

Hi all, I would have posted this in Server Admin, but I don't have the privileges. I have created a new map, called CozaStyle, that has 5 axes and some interesting stars in the corners. I've tried multiple times to use the "Host Game" option to test-host it, but to no avail. When I try to ...
