first !!!!!!!!!!!
before you try to configure the router set up your game configure.
In the game.cfg there are standard ports. 32768. Some routers have problems dealing with using the same
port number when hosting and playing from.
Hence the no connect with your local machine.
There is 5 numbers that all need to be changed to match the same one.
Try adjusting your playing pc to something like 32780. Remember all 5 of the numbers matching below must
be the same or you can't connect to novalogic or you may bet a connection error. If this doesnt work and
you want to go back all you have to do is delete the game.cfg and start the game up. It will re create
the game.cfg to default settings.
mpnovaworldportmin = "32768"
mpnovaworldportmax = "65535"
mpnovaworldportdelta = "1"
mpnovaworldportrandom = "0"
mpnovaworldlanenumsessionportmin = "32768"
mpnovaworldlanenumsessionportmax = "65535"
mpnovaworldlanenumsessionportdelta = "1"
mplanserverportmin = "32768"
mplanserverportmax = "32787"
mplanserverportdelta = "1"
mplanclientportmin = "32768"
mplanclientportmax = "65535"
mplanclientportdelta = "1"
mplanclientportrandom = "0"
mplanservertojoinportmin = "32768"
mplanservertojoinportmax = "32787"
This should fix the routing issue and allow you to connect to your server.
Once this is done you now need to set up your router, you must log into the modem, set up your bridge (interface whatever) to the router, once bridge bridge the route to the modem now and only now can you set up the router for port forwarding..
this allow player who inter the lounge through you hosting (computer in your closet)
to have data sent back and forth and this is what bridging and port forwarding does to let player use or play your and be my competitor .
without this setup you can not host .. period!
second I dont understand how I can help.
A- I do not know where your at or what kind of modem you have !
B- I do not know you username nor password to your modem nor your router.
C- if you have not setup these up then default is
user name is ADMIN or admin
password is admin or ADMIN
D-if you have set up a user name and password if I was you i would.
E- most of the newer equipment have the bridge built in side, I do not know because I haven't look at your shit, or know what kind of golly you have.
F- so again I do understand how I can help I will suggest you call support of whom ever golly you are using ...(like ma bell, jones crappy internet, or this DNS sucks.
G-ther is help and people who will remote login and do it for you .. again contact your provider support team !!!!
H- I no longer do remotes...
I have given you all you need to get it done . but do it for you .
your on your own Dorothy,
DON'T CLOSE YOUR EYE AND CLICK YOUR HEALS !@!@!
