Problems creating server

[Mäki]

I have big problems when trying to make servers. Maybe one year ago i was able to make a server just clicking on soldat menu

• Internet and
• connect to lobby server (or something like that) then just start game and people came to my server. On that time I never needed to touch soldat.ini or lobby_servers.txt. But now, when starting server, people is not coming to my server.

I've tried selfkill.com making server tips and that help text from somewhere here too. I dont know what do do!

How to fix it?

Well...there are lots of reasons.

You could try creating a server using Soldat Dedicated Server.

Or maybe people just don't want to come to your server.

I've tried to create server with soldat dedicated server and wont work.  I tried my server with my friend and he couldn't connect to my server.

You need to turn off your firewall. Use google.

Any of my firewalls are not blocking soldat.exe I checked it out. I dont think turning off would help.. Ill try

If you're using Windows XP, make sure you disable the built-in firewall. If you're using Zone-Alarm, setting it to mid level should work. If you're behind a router, make sure you have fowarded the correct ports.

I tried that server port setting tester and everything failed. How to fix my connections?
I've tried to make server with decitaded server. When reguesting server with normal soldat I cant found my game but when i click local there it is and i cannot join in.

Are you behind a router? If you are, you need to forward the necessary ports.
