Create server

[softas2]

When i host a game, i cant see my game in internet list and in commands menu showing my ip like: 127.0.0.1, maybe theres is the problem, how can i fix that? I also have router maybe theres is some ip's to forward?

You need to portforward http://www.portforward.com

I find server folder in my GTA San Andreas folder and tryed to start MTA Server. There are writing: server port: 22003, so ithink i have to forward this. I tryed to, but it dont change anything. What means HTTP port? it also have to be forwarded?

u have to portforward: 22003 / 22005 / 22126

[NotAvailable]

u have to know your: Router account / password / and the IP of the router /

ill post back in 5 minutes

ok this is it:

22126 : UDP

22003 : UDP

22005 : TCP

All these ip's are forwarded. I also add exceptions in firewall. I see my ip in favourites, in local. But i dont see in internet list. I remember few days ago i created server in samp and i was forwarded port 7777, then i can see my server in the internet list and everybody can join. But in the MTA theres is something different. Is there are difference beetwen host game from San Andreas/Server/MTA Server or just hosting in the game? When i host server in the game its writing my ip: 127.0.0.1 when i host from the MTA server aplication writing my ip: 192.168.1.100. and i can see it in favourites and local list.

one thing:

game-monitor (mta is unig it) lists only servers that are online for some time. if everybody can join, and you forwarded all the ports needed - leave your server open for about 24h, it should be listed after

[softas2]

I dont know peoples can join or cant. But i try to leave server open. One question: How to change server name, max players?? i tryed to change something in server.log but its not configuration, its like server monitoring or something.

[dzek (varez)]

edit mtaserver.conf

what is log in general?

ask somebody to join by giving ip and port,

ofc port from What Is My IP

[softas2]

Thank You

[softas2]

NO NO! My friends cant join, i can join to server just with local ip, or writing localhost. Here i found it old topic: viewtopic.php?f=60&t=14897, theres is same problem. I dont know what to do. Ip's are forwarded, everything is alright. But server is always created on local. Maybe theres is some settings to change it?

[dzek (varez)]

are you starting dedicated server or "host game" from mta menu?

use 1st one - it's better.

also: do you have static or dynamic ip?

[softas2]

I reinstlaled MTA and now i can connect with my normal ip! i dont see server in internet list... but i think peoples now can join. So maybe now everything is allright in dedicated server. But with "host game" from mta menu, it always writing: starting local server and writing this ip: 127.0.0.1. I will try to figure out, whats the problems with internet list and with "host game" from mta menu.

My IP is static, with SAMP everything was allright.

[dzek (varez)]

trust me - its better to use dedicated.

and as i said - leave server online for several hours to let gamemonitor list it.

and "host game" (listen server) and dedicated are using different config files! - remember that

[softas2]

Ok. Thank You.

1. This topic is in the wrong section.

2. The poster should be more specific on which game it is, (in the first post )

3. Did everything work out for you?

Moved to "Server" support subforum.

@SugarD-x: it's obvious by the OP's second post in this thread that he's referring to MTA:SA.

Hence why I said it should be in the first one.
