#Waiting for 1 Player and unable to load in

I am trying to join as a client to my friend as the host. Using port forwarding, I am able to get all the way to attempting to join their raid and it hangs on "waiting for 1 players"

He updated the f12 forced IP to match the IP I connected to his server with, but it shows "started on port 0" underneath that pop-up. Any ideas?

vale dragon
#

And he is hosting the server on his machine and not another?

long crest
#

yes on his machine

vale dragon
#

Using a VPN?

long crest
#

using udp tester now to understand if that can help in understanding

#

no, port forwarding no VPN

vale dragon
#

no need to force and bind

#

Thats just for VPN

long crest
#

ahh, okay, misunderstood

#

UPnP should be enabled, correct?

vale dragon
#

If their router supports it

#

BUT if they did port forward for 25565 then no

long crest
#

okay, he port forwarded for 6969 not 25565, so enabling that will do that piece is my understanding

vale dragon
#

6969 on TCP for the server, 25565 for UDP to host raids

#

And yes, as long as his router supports it you are correct

#

No need to port forward 25565 as long as UPNP works

long crest
#

got it, testing now, otherwise we will set up 25565 port forwarding

vale dragon
#

Also, make sure firewall on his end

long crest
#

port 6969 is open using port testers so that shouldn't be the issue

#

have inbound and outbound rules setup

im at the same step

#

we got it working with radmin

#

but i get stuck on waiting for 1 player

vale dragon
#

and if that has not fixed it, firewall

Im actually getting the same issue, direct hosting on my machine, I can see my friend connected, and it even says connected successfully. 100% Port Forwarded and allowed in Firewall

vale dragon
#

Try with the firewall down, rule might be wrong

#

Been a common issue

#

Did you find a fix to this problem?

#

Having the same issue as yesterday, made the exceptions in the firewall and made sure to set up everything correctly. Me and a friend are running the same mods but still running into "waiting on 1 player" no matter what

vale dragon
twin path
#

will give it a try

vale dragon
#

And if you using VPN, then do the F12 and Force and Bind the IP

dusky adder
#

i fixed it by using the force ip. im running the sever on lan

Im having a similar issue, I see in the bottom right that I have connected to my friends server but then stuck in waiting for 1 player. This also occurs if I am the host and a friend tries to join me

#

Ive disabled my firewall and it still doesnt like it

#

We're kinda running into the same issue, but we're good for one raid, then the second raid the client is forever waiting on 1 player after I've already loaded in, we just gotta reset the server everytime and it seems to work

vale dragon
#

Are you on vpns

daring dagger
#

we're using hamachii

vale dragon
#

Are you doing the force and bind in f12 to the VPN ip?

jolly raven
#

Yes

daring dagger
#

we have 1 friend that is able to join & play but it's my buddy who's having troubles

vale dragon
#

Try radmin over hamachii

#

And let me know what happens

Hello, joining the conversation:

I have played many games with a friend as the host. The "server" being hosted remotely off a box. At the end of one of the raids while extracting my buddy's game crashed. After that moment we have this exact issue.

We have tried restarting all involved computers to no avail

*loot

#

Firewalls down radmin worked

jolly raven
#

As well forceip and bind

vale dragon
#

Ahhh nice

#

Hamachii has been issues for this at times.

#

With firewall down it means you need to take a look at the rules. If you get then setup right you should be able to turn it back on

#

Thank you for your help & Guidance!

vale dragon
#

No problem. Have fun!

#

Blast some scavs for me

jolly raven
#

Update… after 2 raids it no worky anymore

vale dragon
#

Whats it doing now? Back to stuck on loading?

#

And same person is the host?

daring dagger
#

Yes. Back to waiting on players

vale dragon
#

No other changes to who was hosting or anything?

daring dagger
#

Nope. It was me. We finished a raid & tried to hop into another one but he got stuck on waiting for players

vale dragon
daring dagger
#

it might be a sequencing issue (I have no idea if it matters) where he needs to join first out of the 2 buddies joining?

#

But both of them went to bed so no more testing for tonight

vale dragon
#

You guys got all the same mods as well ya?? Like zero difference

daring dagger
#

We're all on vanilla. Fresh installs & all

vale dragon
#

Okay. well, that is damn odd

#

If this thread gets closed at some point open another and toss the info in there. Just as a heads up

daring dagger
#

Sounds good. Looking at other stabs at this, restarting the serve might remedy this?

#

but we'll see if it happens again tomorrow

#

Take care & thanks for the help!

vale dragon
#

No problem, thank you for being patient with it all

daring dagger
#

All good dude, my buddies & I have been waiting for something like this for quite a while & are pretty stoked that it worked at all. We've been with Tarkov for a long time & it's only up from here

#

& thanks for showing us Radmin too
