FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

HELLO :) WELCOME TO MY FIRST SERVER. YOU CAN ACCESS TO THE SERVER. THIS SERVER CONTAINS MORETREES, VANESSAE DECORATIONS, BIOMES, HEADS, PROTECTORS, ESMOBS, ETC. I'M MAKING SOME MODIFICATIONS ABOUT TEXTURES OF MODS... SO, YOU CAN SEE, I CHANGED PROTECTORS' TEXTURE, ALSO, I'M ADAPTING THE HEADS' TEXTURES TO MK. ALSO, I HAVE AN ARCADE MACHINE.





I DON'T KNOW WHY MY SERVER IT'S NOT APPEARING ON SERVER'S LIST. BUT YOU CAN ACCEST FROM

192.168.180.1 is probably your internal IP address. Have you setup port forwarding on your router to allow access to your computer from the internet?

YOU MEAN THE FIREWALL? OH, WELL, LET ME TRY.

You can also use PortMapper to open up the port if changing the firewall isn't enough. It helped me in the recent case.

Port Maper? Ok, I'll check it. Thank you n_n. I

One question: How can I use this document in *.java format?

Now I'm experimenting with software. nice. I can create a host!!! Thank you!!! <3

:( I don't understand portmapper. Could you teach me? I don't know...

Thank you for the video. I've subscribed n_n. This info should help other people with this issue.
But in my case, when I try to run the server, the server loading bar freezes. I'm checking if it's a problem with the firewall, maybe. ...It's the ipv6...

What's the error?

IPV4, or IPV6? I don't know.. :(.

Neither.

You would want to use external IP address. You could find it here: http://myexternalip.com/

If you want the fastest reply, you can send me a PM btw.

my ip is 64.237.229.249 port 30000
Visit me anytime. It doesnt appear on list server but I think you can get access to my server. I hope.
I'll add you to my friends list in Minetest. Thank you for you attention.

If it doesn't appear on the server list then you may have done something wrong still.

Okay in firewall:

Inbound connection, add UDP port: 30000-30000

Outbound connection, add UDP port: 30000-30000

And PortMapper: UDP 30000

The reason we use UDP, because it's just better in a way. Not much to explain.

Then in Minetest config file:





Edit that and put something like this.. for example:



Some of these lines above may not be necessary, but I added them just to be sure.

Then you can run the server easily off like this:




BUT... if you do not want to be in the server... try this:



After making a shortcut.



After the "-worldname" hit space then type in your map name, and then hit Apply and OK.

Your server is now running itself, without you!

I recommend joining the server by using your internal IP, so bandwidth isn't wasted too. The IPv4 Address is your internal IP. Nobody can join that except if they're in your house connected to your router. Just type in IP in the server list in the game (engine) and your port (30000) and you'll join the server.

One thing to keep in mind... make sure your ISP allows you to run a server... if you're using Comcast... you don't want to run a server, otherwise they'll cut off your internet service. I'm using RCN... and in their ToS... they didn't mention anything about server so I'm okay I guess.

Edit that and put something like this.. for example:

Your phone or window isn't wide enough to display the code box. If it's a phone, try rotating it to landscape mode.

Code: Select all

server_announce = true
server_name = MykieDoesStuff Test Server
server_description = Test Server
remote_port = 30000
address = (your external IP address)
port = 30000
max_users = (whatever amount of users you want)

I've made the most part of these steps. I didn't knew about inbound and outbound connection. Let me try.

NOW I KNOW WHAT'S THE PROBLEM... BUT IT'S SOMETHING WEIRD... THE SERVER ADDRESS IS CHANGING EVERYTIME 0.0. BUT HOW IT'S POSSIBLE?

That.... I do not know... But if you're able to connect to your server via your external IP, then that means everything is working.

I CAN CONNECT WITH MYSELF WITH ANOTHER USER, ADDING IP AND ADDRESS PORT ON SERVER LIST. TRY TO VISIT MY SERVER. IP 192.168.180.1 ADDRESS PORT 30000

Sorry... that's not the IP address... that's only private still.... you want the EXTERNAL IP.... you want to be able to connect to THAT IP.

If the loading screen appears while media is loading, "k/bs per second, so that mean is getting in server, right?

ParaklataChotou wrote:If the loading screen appears while media is loading, "k/bs per second, so that mean is getting in server, right?

I guess... I mean it depends how you properly set up the whole server in the first place. If you're able to join the server via your external IP, then you set it up correctly.

It's the Gateway Address. Or I need to put the ipv6 address - that doesn't make sense...
And in tutorials, they say that we type ipconfig on cmd, and then it will show the ip addres - ipv4 I think. Or it's the Gateway Address...? I'm so dizzy and confused. I don't know how to set it up.

*Sighs* .....

For this:



Put down:



Whatever your external IP is.

And for this:



Change that to 30000, since that's the port for MT.

Nothing more. Nothing less. Just listen to what I say, otherwise you're going to screw things up.

Ok. Check if you can login into my server

IP: 64.237.225.144 Port: 30002.

Connection timed out for me. Maybe you're not running it right now. But anyways.. if you're able to join your own server using that IP and port... then your server works.

:'(. But there's no point if I be the only one who can get acces... :______(. Anyway... I've made everything I could. Thank you anyway.

***and yes.. The server is running right now... :(
