Author Topic: Not being able to host on Source Games (Read 1540 times)

Waru · March 05, 2013, 11:25:26 AM

this is really, REALLY pissing me off, i got a new router a couple days ago and i was able to port forward fine for magicka/blockland/terraria but when i try to host for say, Garry's mod or synergy, it wont work at all. I have the required ports all set up, but when my friend tries to connect to my server it just says "YOLO SERVER NOT RESPONDING" and if i do sv_lan 0, heartbeat, and changing the map, it still wont work and i am enraged

I have a ASUS RT-N66U, been looking for a solution for days

any help?

Have them connect via the "Connect (IP)" command while having "SV_Lan 0" in. Thats how mine works.

Weird, I know I had this problem for a while but I don't remember how but I got it working. I think it just randomly started to work one day.

What ports did you open?

So which ones are the source ones? (I know that Terraria isn't)

the rest of them

Alright, first of all you have them all set to UDP, I'm sure that you're suppose to have them set to "both" also none of those ports except maybe name4 and name1 are exactly correct. I have all source ports open, here is a picture of what mine looks like:

When you fix your ports to mine your server should work via the Connect (IP) command.

Does your router include a preset for Counter-Strike in the port forwarding menu? I have a similar model, and mine has that, which works for Source and Goldsrc.
