spook 28 Posted August 5, 2006 (edited) you rang ok well as briefly touched on by myself and SCB earlier in the thread......if you are using a router other than the bulk standard ISP one you MUST configure it to 'port forward'......................configure it to allow ports 6654 to 6655 to forward to the internal address of the PC in question (you can find this out by going to start\run typing in 'cmd' press enter......then in dos box type in 'ipconfig' (or winipcfg if you are using a dinosaur) otherwise all that is happening is that people trying to connect are just hitting your router which is not allowing people through has anyone got a game running? edit: also one thing to consider with the server business is if you are running a firewall (software) and it is not setup to automatically ask you if you would like to accept tcp traffic on ports 6654 and 6655 (most firewalls are automated with this kind of thing though) Edited August 5, 2006 by spook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spook 28 Posted August 5, 2006 You can find that at : sound\raceend.wav <{POST_SNAPBACK}> thx Henry....................unfortunately that one I get on with and is just for training............I believe it is a far different (and some might say annoying one ) with the network play Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MattK 3,447 Posted August 5, 2006 What is the file TSServerTool.exe and does it need to be running for the server to work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
spook 28 Posted August 5, 2006 What is the file TSServerTool.exe and does it need to be running for the server to work? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> no idea Matt but I know I haven't clicked on it before.......once routers are configured etc it should be as simple as setting up server in main game exe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
