JaJe 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2014 Hello again guys, After many days of working on some .gsc script, I finally end my job, and thank you for you help also. Today I decided to give my .iwd file with the iceops executable and my settings of the game to a friend to host. After starting the server, only he can connect to the server (local) but nobody else can, I don't understand why. It's already set dedicated +2, port 28960 is already open, If I use the same settings/files I've worked to my computer, players can connect to my server. But to console I see often this message, maybe someone can explain me the cause? Thank you in advance.

IJzzo 1,072 Report post Posted October 8, 2014 Nothing wrong here except you have added invalid master servers. Most likely your server is unreachable from the internet because of Network Address Translating technology used. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaJe 0 Report post Posted October 8, 2014 The point is, when I used to host to my computer the server I was under a router and it worked, On my friend, he have a direct connection, no router. I tried also to connect with his firewall off..still nothing.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IJzzo 1,072 Report post Posted October 8, 2014 Well I can't tell you anything here. Have you tried to host a 1.7 or older CoD4 server? With firewalls it won't works obviously as well unless you have whitelisted the network ports CoD4 uses for non established connections. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 Well in my case when portforwarding i have to constantly update the ports that i open because if you hit ipconfig in the cmd and my last digit of the ipv4 address changes from time to time so i would go into it and re add the port just incase.

JaJe 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 Your IP Changes because you have a Dynamic IP (DHCP), just set up manually an IP address and would be fine. In my case I still have no clue.. Even with firewall off still nothing, weird. If someone have a clue, please tell me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 my ipv6 is not dynamic. It just the last digit of my ipv4 which is different and changes. Just try what I said and see what happens, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaJe 0 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 Why would you use IPv6 for local IP? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 Just retry port forwarding. Also i noticed that it takes my port forwarding awhile to get threw to call of duty servers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted October 14, 2014 or try adding these. make sure you dont have anything to do with gamespy in you cfg set sv_master1 "cod2master.activision.com" set sv_master2 "cod2authorize.activision.com" set sv_master3 "cod2master.infinityward.com" set sv_master3 "cod2update.activision.com" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fisher 101 Report post Posted October 15, 2014 I know you don't need them but they could possibly fix the problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaJe 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2014 Still have this problem, Reinstalled windows and yet same problem. Firewall OFF. Only works LAN even it's set as Dedicated 2. Hell, I don't know what else to do. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IJzzo 1,072 Report post Posted November 1, 2014 Well you have to try to find your problem at your NAT/Modem or ISP. It is very unlikely an issue with your PC when it works on LAN. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted November 1, 2014 Well you have to try to find your problem at your NAT/Modem or ISP. It is very unlikely an issue with your PC when it works on LAN. In most cases it would be the port forwarding that is the problem just double check the ports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaJe 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2014 Finally I found the solution!! It wasn't NAT problem, but the q3config_server.cfg file. I was inspired to take a look on that file and to find something to edit: seta net_ip "localhost" I changed "localhost" with "127.0.0.1" (not worked) I changed "localhost" with "external IP" (works only Internet, but strange, not works anymore LAN) So the final solution was changing "localhost" with "0.0.0.0" and works both LAN & Internet! Also I had to set that file Read-only because it changes back to "localhost" after restart. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IJzzo 1,072 Report post Posted November 4, 2014 Then you set the net_ip from another configfile. Aren't you doing? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JaJe 0 Report post Posted November 4, 2014 Well, to my server.cfg Is set default "localhost" as net_ip, also for configs_mp.cfg from player settings. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
