dedicated server problem
Hi guys,
I want to run my own dedicsted server to play with a friend.
Heres my config:
- ryzen 9800x3d
-64 gb ram DDR5 6000
- Installed on SSD WD Black sn850x
- rtx 5080
I want to play with the same computer while running the server, I know its ok and I am not afraid of the performance.
The problem:
I installed steam dedicated server for Conan Exiled. I tinkered a little with the serversetting.ini to set up message of the day, server name, some parameters like 2 player max, etc.
When I open it, I juste see the window with ‘’close this windows to close the server’’ so no live logs. But, the server work as I am able to connect via direct connect using my local IP. Even if I have set a password, they dont ask me for one (maybe because dirext connect).
The problem come when my friend rey to connect. I gave him my ipv4 IP adress (I know its the good one, followed by :7777) and password and all but he can’t connect and got timed out. My adresse on ipconfig windows command is different than on whatismyipd, which may be some security problem ? (or router). I forwarded all required ports in my modem.
Maybe I need ti change something in the serversetting.ini because im running the server on the same Pc I am playing it ?
On steam ‘gameservers’ menu, I can see my server but in the ‘LAN’ section only, and do not reflect name and linmit of player…(when I right click the server I see the good ipv4 IP adress I give to my friend to connect)
Which Ip adress is the right one ? the one I got with ipconfig command and what I see on the whatismyipd.com ? why are they different ?
Please help with the setting and configuration I am missing !
Thanks for your help
