Hard to say. You might be using the wrong IP address or port number. You might not have your port forwarding configured correctly too.

Not really sure how this way works, since I hate Hamachi. But if you run the server from a batch file, put the word pause at the end and it'll keep the window open, that will let you read the error.

Either that or you can try to keep running it and hit the print screen button and try to time it right :lol:.

If you are using the hamachi method to run a server, then everyone who joins it must have hamachi

Even though you have to edit the server in a txt file now, its still easy, and works like a charm. Thanks!

Hi there :) Glad you got the server launched ;)

Well it might be either your Port that isn't forwarded to the right IP or not forwarded at all...

And you are maybe connecting to the wrong IP.

Here's how mine is set up:
(IP's are not my real ones just examples)

My PC IP 192.123.1.6

In the "serverargs" i have my port set on 19860

my "public" IP address is 80.564.512.12

So i go to my rooter setup, and forward my PC IP address to a UDP port, 19860.

When i connect i have to connect to my own IP address. The IP of my PC with the port. Soo... 192.123.1.6:19860

And others will use the "public" with the port to connect... 80.564.512.12:19860

Hope it helps, i you need help to port forward i can help you.

Ps: Are you French by any chance?
