• FIKA Version: 0.9.8892.36315
• AKI version: 3.8.1
• Port Forwarded
• Explain Problem: I am hosting the game, friend 1 cannot join any raids that I host due to a generic connection error that tells them to fix port forwarding. I can host and join raids on my own perfectly fine on this server.
• What have I tried so far: Different maps, different time slots, changing port forwarding/firewall settings, etc
• Logs: I don't have any relevant logs as of right now but I will in the near future, haven't been able to test this for a few days but just got home from a trip and wanted to make a post to start the discussion
#Friend cannot join raid

I get the feeling this might be related to the http.json file as im not sure what else I might have done wrong
nope
i use port forwarding
different issue
Damb
just bc its the same generic error doesnt mean its the same issue
have you fixed this issue? I am having the same problem
Not fixed yet, checking right now actually
here are those player logs
Host is mine, client is my friends
They can talk to the server when it comes to loading their profile, what raids are available, etc, but cant load into the raid
Is my http.json correctly set up?
Checking for mod issues now
Not a mod issue
ok
Got flagged by my antivirus as a trojan 1 sec lol
false positives on virustotal
completely clean on kaspersky
o7 running it now
It's because it's running sockets, anything that does that will be flagged until enough people run it.
what should i be looking for with the program(s)?
You start the server, your friend starts the client
Check if they can connect
The app should be self explanatory with the settings
If that is what you forwarded, yes.
Show me the errors
it keeps closing when i try and screenshot hold up
lmao
oh wait no im just stupid hold up
both of them are just stuck on connecting
maybe i know whats up
Then the port isn't open or your firewall is blocking the connection
ports are forwarded and i used the fika firewall tool

what the fuck goin on
oh god dammit is it the port forwarding-
give me like 5 minutes i think i know the fucking issue
wait no i dont
wtf???
yea ports are forwarded on the router, i used the fika firewall tool to do my firewall settings
i genuinely dont know how that could be incorrect
Me neither, have you port forwarded before?
Can you show me your forwarding rules?
Doesn't matter, no one can do anything with it.
And that is 100% your PC?
absolutely 100%
my friend and i can both talk to the server application when it comes to profiles
Network category specifically
Me and Friend recently bypassed this issue by pressing F12 and going into fika plugin, then where it says force IP i think
the host puts in his IP of where hosting server
0.0.0.0 is just used when binding to an adapter
i might be stupid
What you put in Force IP is what you tell others to connect to
So if you put 12.12.12.12, others will attempt to connect to that
Reeset both fields and try again, should work
What did you put in the UDP tester?
my ip
Essentially dont bind or force ip in it, just put 25565 and then try
I'd try the UDP tester, if that doesn't work go in-game and then try with those fields reset.
Is the force bind ip field empty?
Show me your F12
If it says 0 it failed to start the server
Try binding to 0.0.0.0 (not Force IP)
do you by chance have the UDPTesterServer running?
i did
i will try that first
thanks for the help fellas
networking is where im completely lost
that did it
server started properly

lemme see if friend can connect
will get back to ya
i think i was just confused bc literally everywhere told me i had to force / bind ip
but nowhere said what u had to put there if ur port forwarding
and using my actual IP didnt fucking work at first
so i just thought it had to be smth else
Did it work?
Hey ended up going to sleep after that, i'll give an update on how it works today
couldn't test it last night as my friend also went to bed
yeah im having the same issue right now with my friend
didnt portforward tho, using radmin
Probably not the same issue then
exact same issue with Radmin here
