Port Forwarded router.. Now what??

[taty MDTKL]

i port fwrded my router, but when i launched dedicated server and checked it on another comp, it was LOCKED. in prefs.cs, it saids the opposite help!!

If you have arts admin script installed enter the server and log in as admin then type /unlock

If you dont have ACAS installed, go to create server and un select the lock option, then run a server, then shut the create server down and launch the dedicated server.

^ did both still not working.. my firewall is off, tt has never done this before and the create server screen won't host either.

What are you trying to do?

A - unlock a server

or

B - port forward your router

Unless you give more detailed and accurate information we cant help, we are not mind readers.

Open up your router software and take a screen shot of the portforward settings and post it here

Are you on PC or Mac?
When you use create can you play in the server?
What admin script are you using?
When you launch a dedicated server are there any errors in the consul? (look carefully)
Have you checked the master server to see if your server is showing?
Why have you turned your firewall off? Are you mad?

In the dedicated terminal, try typing:

Code: Select all

$pref::server::password = "";

Also in the dedicated consul window type:

Code: Select all

unlockserver();
