Make sure you start your dedicated server properly. The following sequence works perfectly for me every time, see if it works for you:

1. Start Blockland.
2. Open your Blockland folder, wherever it may lie.
3. Double-click (run) dedicated.bat
4. Wait for the dedicated console window to say "Authentication... SUCCESS" or something to that effect.

You are now running a dedicated server. To join it, go back to your Blockland window, click Join A Game, then at the bottom of the server list, look for the button that Sonicfan mentioned, "Query LAN". Click that, and the server list should refresh with your dedicated server being the only server on that list. You know what to do from there.

Yes.
Did you forward port 20032?

Wrong port, it is 28000 to 28300(I think its to 28300) Eitherway it is 28000 for sure.Good Luck and hope it works out for you.

I cant join my dedi...  I crash when I try to join, and I have no errors in the console log.  I have only the default addons and my Halloween rpg running.

i have another problem i open the way you said but at end insted of #4 haping it says inside a box 

your server has not been setup to work with rtb yet

thats all im saying

Your server is working, but you didn't set it up to work with RTB.

No Blockland window popped up after that Black box because it's not supposed to. That black box is the server. Just because no more text and stuff is showing up, doesn't mean it's frozen.

To set up RTB on your server, simply join the server. There is a console command to do so, but I cannot think of it at the moment.
