Looking for a tutorial on Dedicated Hosting

[Ethan]

I find that, in a way, forcing them to get an Add-On just to do a simple action. You should really list the manual way before the way where you require Add-On download.

The manual way does not work for me, so how would I do that?

Open dedicated.bat in your blockland folder.
Wait for it to load.
Open Blockland and click Join Game, then Query LAN.
Join your server.
Use IGSO to change map, server name etc.
Make sure you have port forwarded.

Bump. Is this for online dedicated servers or LAN dedicated servers?

Online.
The reason I said Query LAN is because you are joining to your own computer through your own computer, so therefore it appears dead on the Internet list.

You have to have the black box (console) that pops up when you open a dedi. This won't actually open the main menu, but you do have to leave it there to have a server.
