If you didn't set a name, it's probably "Tremulous 1.1.0 Server" along with all the others

Edit sv_hostname in server.cfg, or in the console type: set sv_hostname "My Server Name Goes Here"

If you do the latter, it'll only take effect while the server is running and it'll revert next time you start it.  If you do the former, you'll have to "exec server.cfg" in the console for it to take effect (which will kick off whomever is on there, if anyone).

ok thanks

loading error after ^3 menu not found

Quick search of the forums turned up this thread.  If you don't find that very useful, you might want to post more information such as which client you're running (where you got it), what OS you're using.. all the things that might help someone to help you without them first being a mind reader

[snb]

omg rocinante iwhat i said was the whole freaken joke r-tard i was coming back on what todo until you pulled that shit

[scottson]

So I decided to make my own server, sounded fun at the time.

plz to fill out my questionaire?!!1/

1. plzz can i has vista instructshunz>? I assume yours are for XP, but I have Vista Home Premium and vista is a complicated POS. Is there another place where I can find vista instructions?
2. i can run teh servor on wista?!/ I tried reading up on servers in other places, and it all sounded you needed to know what you are doing which I don't, and it all sounded like they had linux or some other OS that isn't a complete crap hole. Can I even successfully run a server with Vista HP?

kthxbaii 

[snb]

its almost the same i have vista ( same home premium thing as yrs) and my server works perfectly

[your face]

dude, you're not supposed to be able to run a server on vista, much less play trem on it...

ok i would like to ask one question please what is the name of my server i didnt set any thing and were do i set it im very new to creating servers thanks!

COOL!  you're making a server?

[Geronimo]

Hi I have a problem,

My server doesnt show up in the master server list. I also checked it after a day from another IP and computer.

I can play if i manually enter the IP adress in favourites, also from another computer.

My ports are forwarded correctly (as far is I know). Could it be something with my ADSL suplier?

Anyone suggestions?

Thnx!

Geronimo

Can you connect to your server from the remote machine from inside your network (behind the router) or outside (in front?) Which did you test from?


For the command line of your server, have you set

Code Select Expand


+set dedicated 2

when you start it?
Are you forwarding port 30720?  If not, have you set your server to listen on the port you are forwarding?  That would be

Code Select Expand


+set net_port 666

or whichever port you forwarded
This one I don't mean to insult you with (if it does), but post your internal server IP, your external IP, and the port forwarding rule.  Quite often I've seen people have a misunderstanding about what gets forwarded where.

Last but not least, post the last few (10-20) lines from the console.


Alright, maybe this should be last but not least, I'm tempted to have a template for these server issues as I no longer respond cause of the boilerplate nature of responses anymore.

edit: Here's a good one that will catch some people.  Most versions of windows (if not all) accept incoming on a virtual IP, but will respond from the primary IP.  So, if you have multiple IPs set up on an interface, and the server is listening on one of the virtual IPs, there's a good chance that the firewall is blocking outgoing responses since they would be coming from the primary IP, and not the virtual IP that you punched a hole in the firewall for (port forwarding.)  This is only an issue if you have and are using virtual IPs.  If you don't know, you aren't so don't ask.  There are many solutions to this problem, ask around and someone will gladly give you a link :-P

[Geronimo]

Ok here we go

-Its tested by a friend on another place, another computer.
-I tested it local and by favourites
-My .bat file says: tremded.exe +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg +set net_port 32123
-Ports 32123, 30720, 30710 are forwarded
-I have Windows server 2003 enterprise edition which is running the trem. server and it is 192.168.1.2 (ports are forwarded to the mac adress of this server)
-My modem = 192.168.1.254
-my external ip = 84.41.184.50

I dont use VIP, though, my server and computer are on a switch, but have both a different static IP adress

I asked around before on another topic... but that one is dead... I wanted to try again

Thnx for the help!

EDIT:

I changed my port in the .bat file to 30720, feel free to try the server: 84.41.184.50:30720

G_ParseSpawnVars: found 1 when expecting {)

You're using the wrong QVM or more likely, put it in the wrong place.  Re-read the instructions and make sure the QVM is in /vm/ in the tremulous folder under your home dir, not the system wide one.

Nothing wrong with that. The server is sending a heartbeat to the master server so it should appear in the server list. Make sure you've followed the tutorial for setting up a server precisely.
