My server isnt being found...

by Dallin Wellington · in Torque Game Engine · 09/24/2007 (9:25 pm) · 4 replies

I went into the fps startkit and changed it so it only creates multiplayer servers, but when i open up another client and try to search it localy or through the master server, it dosnt show.....

Any clues?

No solution?

Unfortunately, not nearly enough information to even guess at a solution. Your internal firewall could be blocking, your router may be blocking, you may not have properly created the server as hosted multiplayer--lots of different things.

You may want to try using a netstat on the host computer to make sure it's listening for connections, as well as possibly looking through your console.log for additional clues.

Well ok, here is some more info and sorry for not giving enough. Well i went into the startMissionGUI.gui file ( im working with starter.fps), and hardcoded the createServer function to do Multiplayer only. So i start a game/server then after that open a new client and try to connect to the game when when i query the master to local i get nothing.... i have the missiontype and game type set to "Any" so i know im accually querying everything.

Also i found out that i can start a dedicated server but i only can find it on the lan part...
