MTA Stunt hosting

[Guest]

Hey,

I been trying to get my own stunt server up for about 3 days now and I can't seem to figure it out.

I properly installed MTA 0.4.1, its just the mtaserver.conf that confuses me cause everything seems like it should work. I boot up the server and it looks like everything works cause it says

ServerPort = 2003

Game = GTA:VC / MTA:VC (#2)

GameMode = Stunt (#2)

MaxPlayers = 16

SERVER: successfully started the server (port 2003)

SERVER: press 'q' or 'Q' to shutdown the server.

ADMINSERVER: successfully started the server (port 4003)

ADMINSERVER: successfully shutdown the server.

but then in my mtaserver.log it says

SERVER: A total of 30 bytes were received and 4 bytes were sent.

It seems fine but I can't connect to it through my client, oh an I'm running the server an client on one PC. I don't know if that would be the problem but I don't see why. I'm also running through a router so in my mtaserver.conf it has my router ip under "GameIPAddress" and "AdminIPAddress" starting with 192.***.*.* digits, should I correct this and put it as my PC's Ip?

And the only thing I changed in my mtaserver.conf file was (Server Name/MaxPlayers/GameMode/GameHour/GameMins/ASE is disabled/ServerPassword/AdminServer/AdminPassword) and thats it, everything else is stock. What did I do wrong?

Type localhost into the IP box on the client to connect to yourself.

Ok that worked! Thanks Jon,

Now is it possible to connect as Admin and play the game?

Like I connect with my Remote Server Admin but couldn't seem to find an option to start my game.

The admin utility is a separate program and so you will need to alt + tab out of the game in order to use it.
