| Post subject: | Server Error |
I went to whatismyipaddress.com or whatever, and I got the following IP address: 84.67.223.140. I put it into the source, opened my game (Legends of Escentia) and tried to connect. I still got my error message saying it couldn't connect to the internet. This is what my Visual Basic file (ModConstants) says in the Winsock Globals area: Code: ' Winsock globals
Public Const GAME_IP = "84.67.223.140" Public Const GAME_PORT = "7000" Is there a mistake in this? Have I done something wrong? If there's any other code you want me to post, just ask me. Please tell me if there's a mistake in this code. BTW, I've opened 7000 in TCP under the name 'Escentia' in Windows Firewall. I've even tried with Windows Firewall off, but it still didn't work. If there's a mistake, please tell me. Thanks Cheeseweasel |

No, I'm looking to host my server from my computer all the time. Not just to test the server. |

Probly you are on a shared network. To make sure, go to DOS in the server's computer and type "ipconfig /all"(w/ out quotes) and see it shows you the network IP or the LAN ones. |

It seams to be right. I'm just not sure about the 255.255.255.255(I think it should be 255.255.255.0). Maybe you are connected thru a router, then you need to port forward 7000. I can't help you anymore right now, I'm going to do a test in less than 2 hours and I still need to lunch. I'll try to help you today night. TTYL |

I doubt it's a problem witht he subnet mask, but can you show me this window: Go to control panel, Network connections, right click on Local Area Connection, properties, choose "1internet connection TCP/IP" and click properties. Which radio buttons are selected there (for both tabs please)? Configure automatically, or manually, if manually what is filled in the boxes? |

look at the IP address in the picture, and the IP address you told it to use, change it and see if it works. |

Try choosing "Obtain my IP address automatically" and "Obtain DNS server address automatically" See if it works, if it doenst, restore it to the way it is now. |

'Fraid it's not working. Can any of you shed any light on what localhost is? |
