lddw did you ever get your server accepting global login?


cannonballguy can tell you how to make a double-clickable file to start a server in OSX

whatismyip.com is one answer, but this one is better.

You can now "Announce" your server,
Of course that is what started all of this,

This section of the forum is for AFTER you get your server runnng,
not before.

are you sure you set for both UDP and TCP
don't make your dad mad.

I'll check on you later.

if thatts what you wanna call it.
You will see on the server list, one number that is just a number, no name
connect there.

#Try turning off the line that says "require udp"
cut your flags way down then restart.

it will be the same numbers you used to set port forward
Your second IP

There it is I'm on it right now
Your address is ok.
When you look at the list, you will see a number just like the one you used to set portfarward.
Join it to play.

You have way, way too many flags.
Each flag increases lag. Cut 9 out of ten flags out.

I dont see it, yet
try connecting at the address you used to change the portforward
put your numbers in here

255.255.1.47:5154

I dont see you on the list.
What's your Ip Again ?
What is the name of your sever again?
what is the IP you used to set port forward?

That is the listserver, checking to see if you are still running.
You are now pubic.
Your life, outside of BZFlag, has just ended.
What is your upload speed?










I answered this back on page one.

II had twenty four players signed up, before I decided to really go for it. Seven days later we have forty. Stiill very new and working things out. Policy changes happen almost daily. I'm Working extremely hard at it. We're trying to write a script to parse server messages and create a race to seven...

If each of those 100 players went and got 100 more players...and then each of those 10,000..... It's restricted by the fact that it's only available from SourceForge. (SF) SF is pretty big, but not ultra-mega-huge, like my And most people are turned off by the fact it looks hard to run, when you are...

The radio thing is good.
I found my microphone. it's over at church on Father Bob's pulpit. I'll go get it and post my voice if this is still open.... I have three or four good voices.... all deep.

Me and Cannonball have been collaborating on this "Server Help Pack" for awhile now, so far at least three have used it. We want to keep it current, and make some improvemeants BinarySpike if you'd like to take a look at it, and make some suggestions, we would be thankful to you. Our exper...

I still say we go to the conf that I use. It's more complete, but has more commented out, it's bare-bones basic, which is what a newb needs. In your current sample conf, you need to uncomment one of the debug levels. Two people got our so-called help this week. here's the links. the first was a pro,...

At first, it looked like he was pretty far along, announcing like that. I shoulda realized the announcement was all wrong. I Immediately see he is nowhere even close, and began warning that going public was not easy. Chasm, good word, CBG Now I see his other posts where he's making maps and realize ...

I don't have your new conf to check but.. you probably need to set port 5154 forward. Goto portforward.com, do alot of reading, Then select your modem, and follow the explicit directions there. This can be confusing, and an error here can scew up your whole modem, so follow the directions very caref...

Until you see this at the end of your terminal, its not public.

CBG and I work together. we will help you. Just slow down. Your not giving us enough or correct information. First it's windows, now it's mac. I can tell you're more confused now than when you started. Making a server public is not something that should be taken lightly, it's a big step! I suggest y...

It's so basic that we sometimes pass right by it. the second paragraph in the conf # Enables inertia and sets the maximum linear and angular accelerations. # The units are somewhat arbitrary so you'll have to experiment to find # suitable values. The values must be non-negative and higher values # y...

There are four debug levels, you must use exactly one of them. Uncomment the single -d --remove the # otherwise it looks ok for a private server Going public is another entire set of problems, right now I'll have to say I'll get back to you. But you must enter your IP into the conf. and next time yo...

It looks like you have not downloaded SirPants help file. Please do so, above. There's lots of good stuff in there. There is not much else here either. I'll have to find it in your other posts. Your map seems OK. Can you post your conf? It'll allow me to see exctly where you are, and where you shoul...

See just below any post you make, theres a little box that says profile.
It doesn't hurt if you put a little more info in there.

In the U.S.A. it's illegal to have you here if you are under 13 Y.O.

The conf file is exactly the same on all computers. The programs you use to work with the conf are different. This is something a freind of mine, SirPants, made. He made it for windows, then added the mac part at my request. Hope it helps. My experience is 100 percent mac. As far as I'm concerned, a...
