My Sevrer is ONLY sending out an internal ip adress which otheres cannot connect to.
Server set to public
Im using a router.
Ports are forwarded to 27910
static ip adress: 192.168.1.136
Firewall off and allowed (unless avg has firewall i dont no about)
my server sends a heart beat eventhough its an internal ip address.
the sever appears only in my paintball server list in the game. it connects to 192.168.1.136. It does NOT show up in sevrer browser.

RECOMMENDATIONS
===================
* Your server may not even be running; try connecting to it on this computer: run /connect 127.0.0.1:27910 in console
* Your server's port may not be forwarded; make sure you forward your ports for UDP port 27910 (and make sure it's set to the right computer address)
* Your server's port may be firewalled; make sure you allow port 27910 through your firewall

Yeh, that same thing is happening to me as well. When i updated to build 20 my server worked once then when i killed the console and started it up the next day it wouldn't do anything. I found it had also changed the port somehow, forwarded the new port and it still doesn't work. I see the server in the "join game" section (obvious) and on the serverlist.php thing but i get exactly the same thing as MrLuke.

1. Make sure that your public ip, 220.245.178.134, is forwarded to your pivate ip, 192.168.1.136.
2. Make sure ports 27910-27910 UDP is forwarded from public ip to private ip.
3. Post a screenshot of your port forwarding page from your router so that we can review it.
4. Make sur eWIndows Firewall is either off or has these ports opened up.
-
AVG probabaly does have a firewall or your ports are not forwarded.
-
Hmm... Dont work 4 me, i'll post a screenshot when i get on the other computer.
-
Firewall off and allowed (unless avg has firewall i dont no about)
What version do you have? The free one? If so then there is no firewall included.
-
Try typing setmaster dplogin.com directly into the console.
-
I am using the avg free edition
and when i type setmaster dplogin.com into console it says "only public dedicated severs use masters"
How do i foward public ip, 220.245.178.135, to my pivate ip, 192.168.1.136 ?
-
fixed mine. after all of the restarts of my router due to mIRC i found the internal ip of the computer had changed and worked perfectly. i wouldn't suggest it but restarting the router does fix some things such as that.

MrLuke it sounds like you are just hitting the Start New Game button to run your server.
Use this handy little guide to setup a "internet" server: http://digitalpaint.planetquake.gamespy.com/docs/server_guide_win32.html

But if he is actually seeing all of that information he is most likely using the cmd console to run it.

Thats the problem.
Also, AVG free does not include the firewall.
-
No. One line tells me that he is using that button.
"only public dedicated severs use masters"
Edit: This was in response to Cameron.
-
O yeah, i remember getting that when i used the Start New Game. My Apologies.
-

Nope!!!! i have set it up correctly using the shorcut to paintball & changed the target to "C:\Games\Paintball Server\paintball2.exe" +set dedicated 1 +set public 1 +exec myserver.cfg +map propaint1.
i
have set a server up on a computer from a another house which worked. but i cant find the fault with this one
-
you need to port forward 27900 from your public ip to your server so that others can see your server.
Also, in your command line startup, you need to add " +set public 1" so that it is a public server.

Wow, never knew that. Now i dont have to hand out the i.p address anymore.
-
ok i have forward 27900 to 220.245.178.135
already had +set public 1 in my command line
still not working. any other suggestions?
-
The default port is 27910 forward that.
Make sure that you are forwarding on UDP too.
-
Still not working. How does that look?
-
27900 needs to be forwarded to 192.168.1.136 just like 27910.
-
27900 needs to be forwarded to 192.168.1.136 just like 27910.
Why is he even forwarding 27900? I don't have 27900 forwarded on mine and it works just fine.
-
SOme routers with port forwarding are not statefull. Meaning that if tcp or udp traffic generated from the internal network won't get out unless that port is open.
27900 is only needed if you want your server to show up on server lists. 27900 udp outbound is heartbeat traffic.

Hmm, not really. Mine is viewable with 27910 only, don't need 27900.
-
Some routers with port forwardign are not stateful, not all. In your case your port 27900 outbound udp doesnt have to be set up.
-
ok the portforwarding looks like this now
27900 udp 192.168.1.136
27910 udp 192.168.1.136
and still not working
If there was a configuration in router settings to turn on/off access to creating servers what would it be or is there no such thing?

Check the server again and let me see the results.
ALso, when you start your server, are there any errors in teh comamnd box that stays open?

OK not even i can see my own server?
how did this guy connect?
which also means server is working?
yet i still connected to my sever from my internal ip?
-
ok i found dizzle & got him to rejoin my sevrer n asked what my ip was.
he thinks it was 60.242.220.169:27910
where did this ip come from?
and why is my server in my server list as 192.168.1.136:27910?
but not in server browser
-
go to ipchicken.com and tell me what it says your ip is.
Other than that, it looks like everything is working as the heartbeat is being sent and acknowledged
-
ip chicken adress is 220.245.178.131
last time i checked this it was
220.245.178.135
-
When you get to the screen below try typing: setmaster dplogin.com

sometimes it gets messed up based off the dynamicness (? is that a word) of his iP. i know some routers dont allow port forwarding unless u have a static
-
well every1 but me can see it so im happy with that
thanks for all the help
