try putting sv_lan 0 into the console

[Dropshock]

yeah i did that
didnt change anything at all

[Crunchie]

if it's not showing in the server browser, type "heartbeat" into console. this fixes it

Try putting this into the console
"sv_lan 0"
"IP yourexternaliphere"
Then have people connect using
"connect yourexternaliphere"

If you can, try finding an auto config in your router that sets it up as CS:S or any other Source multiplay game.

After that you have to do 4 things

"sv_lan 0; sv_pure 1 (2 if you do not want skins); ip <external IP excudeing ports>"

changelevel "mapnamehere"

Read the console to see if your server is secure in VAC

Invite friends and stuff your self at the fact that there are no decent admin mods.

Ok, I see what yu mean, but I have a different question. My computer that I use to play IS NOT the host of my router, does this mean I would have to use a static IP to host?

[General Omega]

You usually have to have a static IP to host in the first place.

19:28 - Ðrøp§høçk²: then ip 98.246.85.137
19:28 - Ðrøp§høçk²: then i changed it to pipeline
