Internal Lan Server

ratykat · Post by **ratykat** » Wed Jun 01, 2005 1:48 am

hey,

i want to make a server for use on my computer and for the others on my lan. iam struggling quite abit with it though. What ip address do i need to use (127.0.0.1 or another one?) i am using 3.51 files aswell.

My problem is i can log into my acccount and make a character, i just cant sign into any of the maps(and yes i am hosting the neutral map)

any help would be appreciated.

The ultimate any1 cud do for me is send me a complete server with map files included that is set with the ip i need so i can just run it and not need to edit nething.

I do have the files btw im just so stuck with it...

For starters dont use 127.0.0.1 this is a local IP for your computer only.
go into a dos prompt window and type ipconfig,this will tell you you lan ip,
put that in all your server cfg,s and hex it into the game client

ive done that, its 0(poiny)1(point)0(point)4 (i did that incase there r ne bots that read stuff like that, surly one exists

) and non of the maps will successfully load. any ideas? its just the actual maps. (im trying to run neutral atm so a new char will load but not even that will work =/)

any more ideas

Dont use 127.0.0.1

You have lan

than you must enter your lan Ip like 168.159.2.1 etc.... maybe wrong builddate or wrong ports

hmm...thing is i dont mess with the ports. If someone on here has msn and is skilled in this area of setting up servers or knows how they work, can they please add me on msn and help me through, because ive been trying to do this for a while and this place looked very promising for me.

I really apreciate all the help ppl are giving, and i cant w8 to get this sorted.

thnx guys

shouldnt matter for the server cfgs

but if you want other comps to connect to it have their client with the network ip

and 127.0.0.1 is a bitch to type in
just use localhost
