DOUBLE D 0 Posted September 18, 2002 We recently put a dedicated server on Direct Play. It runs great but there is one problem someone might be able to shed some light on. When you click "Direct Play" then "Internet" to find servers using Direct Play the server shows up. But when you click on it, it always says "connecting failed", as well as all the other servers listed do. The only way to get there is to click "Direct Play", then "remote", then punch in the ip and then it will show up on the list again and when you click on it you go right in. Why won't it do it the other way? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mister Frag 0 Posted September 18, 2002 It sounds like the wrong IP address is being reported to the master server -- if your server is behind a firewall or NAT solution, that is probably why. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trigger Happy 0 Posted September 18, 2002 Well, this must be a bug in 1.75 Resistance dedicated server. Two 1.75 servers do currently show up with Implementation:DirectPlay. I get "Connection Failed" for both of them. There were never any problems connecting to the server from the in-game-browser when the implementation was set to Sockets. /Happy PS. It also works fine with the IP address in the hosts file. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
