Can only join in LAN

[exilo]

Hello!
I'm trying to set up a server for me and my friend, and it looks like the server I set up is binding to my local IP and not my public IP.
Everything is portforwarded, but it still don't bind on my real ip, so my friend can't join. Image of the server list, and how it's linking to my local IP: http://i.imgur.com/SzKiJg2.png

My guess was that I would need to add multihome=myip, but then I get this error: http://i.imgur.com/s8aOzAa.png

Bat code:

Code: Select all

start ShooterGameServer.exe TheIsland?MultiHome=85.165.xx.xx?QueryPort=27015?SessionName=alexexilo?MaxPlayers=4?listen?ServerPassword=x?ServerAdminPassword=x? -nosteamclient -game -server -log

I've tried multiple other bat files, but it just don't work.

Any idea what's wrong?

And no, the server don't show up on http://arkservers.net/ , I've checked to see if the port is being used on the public IP, but it is not being used as the server uses the local IP

Hey man, same problem here. I managed to create a server with Hell's Launcher tool, I can connect in LAN, but by no mean my friends can join while I forwarded all the shiet... :/

I hope someone will finally answer to your post or mine :/

Make sure you forward ports 7777 and 27015 to your internal IP. Here is my old batch file even though i moved over to a server manager tool:

Code: Select all

start ShooterGameServer "TheIsland?SessionName=MYARKSERVER?QueryPort=27015?ServerPassword=x?ServerAdminPassword=x?listen?MapPlayerLocation"

I never had any issues with my game being seen. They only time I ever had an issue I either needed to update the server or just shutdown and restart the ark server again.

Are you running any VPN software on your machine? Is this on your gaming rig or an actual server at home?

As this post is half a month old, i can't tell if the problem is still existing, but

1. Try to wait 30 minutes after starting the server, that way it should be reported to the steam master servers if possible.

2. If no connection with the master server is possible, you have to recheck your port forwarding and also your computers firewall.

Hope it helps.
