V3ct0r 2,117 Report post Posted December 5, 2022 Hello @Mesut, What is the problem? First of all, you need dedicated ("white") IP address from your ISP to make your PC (server) visible over the Internet.

Tassadar 8 Report post Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) - You need to find your computer's ipv4 a dress and use that instead of 127.0.0.1 - you have to port forward (open ports) of every port being used by your files. ( the port: #### from gameserver.cfg, accountserver.cfg,group and so on) -- to open the ports you need to find out what router /isp you are using and log into that routers website to open the ports along with making exceptions in your firewalls. -- every router is different so you will have to Google how to access your specific router / get the login information for it. Alternatively you can host it on a Windows vps, wich usually has most of this work done for you. Or you can download and use hamachi if its just for your friends.

Tassadar 8 Report post Posted December 6, 2022 (edited) Keep in mind..you will also need a strong internet connection and if you plan to bring people to the server outside your friends/family I highly suggest getting an ipchanger to mask the I.p. noip.com is a commonly used site for it Edited December 6, 2022 by Tassadar 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So, i need to open the ports 1971, 1973, 1975 and 1978, is that right? After that, I configure the .cfg files with my private ip (ex 192.168.0.2), is that right? And in the Client directory, what should i put in IP CHANGER.EXE? My router IP or my host name from noip.com? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
filipe 1 Report post Posted January 3, 2023 I have configured everything, but when i try to access the game with another PC outside my internal net, it fails. I can't figure out why it's not working. Can somebody help me with this IP configuration thing? If somebody is available, could we talk on Google Meeting, Discord or Microsoft Teams so that I can show you? Thanks in advance!

filipe 1 Report post Posted January 3, 2023 Now its working! There's only one problem: My public IP is dinamic, not static, so, it might change and I would have to update the new IP on Client\scripts\tableServerSet.txt and in the IP CHANGER. I have created a dinamic DNS on noip.com as suggested here, but I cant configure it on Client\scripts\tableServerSet.txt and in the IP CHANGER. When i tried, I got only "Failed to connect" in the game. Any idea on how i could configure the dinamic DNS (talesofpirates.hopto.org) as the IP?

Tassadar 8 Report post Posted January 4, 2023 One way to check if its the ports is to try the following. First - run one of the server .exes like accountserver.exe When its running Second - run Windows CDM as admin and try typing in Telnet youIp port# For example Telnet 192.168.0.2 1971 But replace port# with the port # of the exe your running. If you get more text then or nothing changes then the port is blocked. If you get a black screen then its open Ip is a bit trjcky Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
filipe 1 Report post Posted January 4, 2023 Everything is OK with the port and IP now. The only problem is that I can't configure my domanin DNS. Any idea on how i could configure the DNS (talesofpirates.hopto.org) as the IP? If i change it in the serverset.txt and IP Changer it doesn't work.

My router IP or my host name from noip.com? If your server files (GameServers, AccountServer, GroupServer and GateServer) are running on the same PC, then all you need to do is specify in the GateServer.cfg file: [ToClient] IP = 0.0.0.0 Port = 1973 All IP addresses in other .cfg files (AccountServer.cfg, GroupServer.cfg, GameServerX.cfg) should be specified as 127.0.0.1. Also you need to open the only port 1973. If your IP is static you should put IP address in IPCHANGER.EXE, otherwise hostname.

V3ct0r 2,117 Report post Posted January 6, 2023 @filipe This seems to be because the client has a 15 character limit for the DNS. Just checked in client source codes. Try to open ServerSet.bin in any text editor, will you see something like "talesofpirates" instead of "talesofpirates.hopto.org"? This client modification might be the solution to your problem: Quote Some useful links / Полезные ссылки Tips for making a topic in 'Questions & Help' / Рекомендации по созданию тем в разделе "Помощь" Server Advertising Section Rules / Правила раздела "Реклама серверов" Available e-mail domains for registration / Допустимые e-mail домены для регистрации User groups / Группы пользователей User ranks / Звания пользователей "Broken" pictures on the forum / "Битые" изображения на форуме Beware of scammers! / Осторожно, мошенники!
