How to start a freeroam server

[heavy air]

Hello

I am new to the forums but have been playing mta since mta vc was released

can anyone tell me how to start a freeroam server

i have manged to start my own server but i can only play classic death match, race, team death match, capture the flag, etc.

i really want to start a freeroam server where i can spawn cars and guns

i am running windows xp home

intel celeron d 2.4ghz

1.0 gb ram

fx 5900 ultra

mta dp2

using mta race map editor to make maps

cant figure out how to load new maps either

any help would be really appreciated

thanx in advance

please help

Addition I have read the wiki about 20 times doesnt seem to help

have also read evrey forum thread i can find

i seem to be the only person trying to do this

but ive seen freeroam servers online

[SanZoR]

play map called by broph, its freeroaming

[Guest]

and resource: fr.

so with fr (being the freeroam) and broph (being the map). its a good start

[heavy air]

U R A ANGEL

WORKS PERFECT

really sorry one last question i cant seem to find the thread with the ports u need to open in the router

do u guys know what they are

or could u give me a link to the right thread

THANX ANOTHER MILLION

U GUYS R GREAT

ALL HAIL THE MTA team as well

May have found the port addresses <22004 , 44004 , 22127> are these right ?

[TmM_DEVIL]

the ports are set in the master server.conf just have a look in there

[heavy air]

having a look now be back soon

THANK U

[heavy air]

still not sure what i should be setting

22004

have set port to 22004 udp

22005

have set to port 22005 tcp

have also set 22127 udp mentioned for all seeing eye when i start mta server

is this right

i have also been to portforwarding.com and tried the configuration they give but that didnt seem to work

[TmM_DEVIL]

if u got xp best way would assign a static ip in network conections then in router make sure them firewall rules point to that ip

also even if your xp firewall is of add the ports to xp's firewall rules

i would also get no-ip.org program then u can add a domain to your server eg mta.gotdns.org

[heavy air]

I LOVE U ALL

GOT IT WORKING GREAT

STILL TRYING TO GIV MYSELF ADMIN ACCESS BUT I CAN LIVE WITHOUT FOR NOW

THANX FOR ALL THE HELP

[heavy air]

server has been fine for a few days

had some friends round and we linked up using quick connect on my network

since then other friends having problems finding the server in the server browser

could it just be a bit busy or could i have messed something up using the quick connect option

once again any help would be appreciated

i did have a password set when it was working could it be i need to set the password again

[capitone]

BY THE WAY DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO PUT RAMPS IN

THE PACKER TRUCK IS TO UNRELIABLE AS A RAMP

i have also just managed to convert a race map over to dm but cant figure out how to load it

anybody know how thanx a lot

[SanZoR]

You need add them via map editor.

[heavy air]

I didnt think the map editor for deathmatch was finished?

i have created a map in mta race and converted it to deathmatch but

i keep getting errors in the script

i borrowed the script from broph but it just seems to give me errors and when i join the server

i just get a black screen

EXTRA : HAVE JUST FIGURED IT OUT THANX FOR THE HELP EVERYONE
