waffen-79 0 Posted March 16, 2006 Hi guys I did my homework but all I find is DED servers discussion I have a regular PC, runs OFP quite well and I also have a aDSL conn. I want to host a NON-DED server (I want to play too) and my other 3 buddies are not in my LAN. I'm talking here of simple CTF and Coop Missions nothing too laggy thing is: How do I setup my server? meaning that is displayed in the server list (sockets or dplay?) I conn to the internet via router, forwarding ports it's not a problem. Do I need a config file? Can you list the necessary Steps to do that? BTW I have no problems hosting non-dedicated servers for: LOMAC & IL2FB+AEP+PF (I just forward the correct ports and voilá) thx Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Auss 208 Posted March 16, 2006 setup port forwarding then hit New and goto a MP game. send your mates the external IP and away u go. You wont need a config file unless u wanna call your server something, otherwise it will show up as your PC name when they join Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waffen-79 0 Posted March 17, 2006 Thank you both Problem was that my server wasn't post on the servers list in multiplayer I realize it won't display cause I'm not using a ded-server and no config hence there was nothing reporting to gamespy the info of my server. I just forwarded the port 2302 on my router and the game still wasn't public BUT I gave my ip to my m8s and off we go. Thanks guys Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
