Can't join server
Quote from Vaeroth on 02/07/2024, 12:38 AMI get the server to launch and it's locatable in the server list, I can see the mods listed for the server and it makes me down the mods that need to be downloaded. As soon as I click join, I see nothing hit the server CMD window. And then the game just times out for the connection. I tried with and without a password and same result. All ports are open that need to be for the server. 27015, 27020 and 7777. What else could I be missing?

Quote from Vaeroth on 02/07/2024, 5:34 AMOh I didn't know that had to be one of the many added to my router settings. So with all the other ports I can see the server but if this one is not enabled, it'll block me from joining the server?

Quote from Administrator on 02/07/2024, 6:02 AMHere is my table for default ports
note that I did not redirect the RCON port because I do not want to expose it on the internet but if you wish you can also add it

if you have an antivirus with an integrated firewall, also look at that side, keep us informed

- On Windows, click on Start and search for "wf.msc" without the quotes. Right click on it and choose the "Run as administrator" option.
- Click "Inbound Rules" on the left panel, then click "New Rule..." on the right panel.
- When the New Inbound Rule Wizard opens up, select Port, then Next.
- The wizard will present options for choosing the protocol and specifying ports. Select "UDP" and "Specific local ports". List the Query and Peer ports interval, as well the Steam query port, then select Next to continue. Example:
- For a default (one server only) setup list them as
7777-7778, 27015
- For a multiple instance setup like the one listened above, list them as
7777-7782, 9999-10000, 27015-27019, 37015
- Select "Allow the connection" and continue with the wizard.
- Finally enter a name (required) and a description (optional). It is recommended to append the protocol (UDP or TCP) to the rule name.
- If you are using also RCON repeat the above procedure but selecting "TCP" as protocol and the RCON port(s) chosen. Example:
- For a default (one server only) setup list them as
27020
- For a multiple instance setup like the one listened above, list them as
27020-27022, 32330
- When finished, you should have a rule for UDP ports in the Inbound Rules section and eventually a TCP one.
- If needed it is always possible to change these rules to add or remove ports on your setup needing.
- Note: with default Windows settings there is no need to create outbound rules in the "Outbound Rules" section.

Quote from Vaeroth on 02/08/2024, 5:09 PMSo still having the issues. Confirmed the ports on the router were open and then the same ports for the WFW were open as well. I see the server in the in-game list. It makes me download all the mods I have selected for the server, it makes me put in the password. This is being managed at a buddies place on his own server, so it’s not like I am trying to access this on a machine on my own network or same pc. Not sure what else could be creating the issue where my PC can’t be seen accessing the server.
