Likely a misconfiguration either in your firewall or your f-12 settings or their f-12 settings.

For radmin you want to set up your force IP and force bind IP - BOTH of these should be your own radmin IP and no one elses. You can find your radmin IP at the top of the radmin VPN interface but it will also be in the drop down menu selection for the "force bind IP" section.

These settings need to be done for anyone using Radmin failure to do that will cause issues.

Additionally you need to ensure your firewall is setup correctly and can be done with the automated tool below this -

Run the firewall fixer to avoid having to manually configure it.

ill shortly give u update on this force ip

[cunning gate]

Also since people have a random habit of just changing settings when things don't work randomly it would be best if you could post a screenshot of your f-12 settings (after these changes are made) and your friend's f-12 settings

ofc

This is the radmin one and sometimes it works so its worth a shot first. Radmin uses the windows firewall still which is what the tool above fixes - It creates rules for EFT/SPT/FIKA so that it can access the internet

[ocean ruin]

this is his

[cunning gate]

These are used to create bundles which are required by some mods that add items like additional clothing items and/or weapons. Without using these as the host any clients connecting will see the "bundles loading" screen which takes forever or may fail

[cunning gate]

Yep so they just need to add their radmin IP in "force IP" and then select their IP from the drop down menu

[cunning gate]

This should be their own IP here not the hosts

[ocean ruin]

thats my

[ocean ruin]

okay

[cunning gate]

You also need to set your own Radmin IP in the force IP and force bind fields

Basically this field is telling the game which IP it should use - Otherwise it may attempt to use your LAN IP or your public IP instead of using the VPN's IP

[ocean ruin]

ok so

i setted my vpn ip on both fields and cant join

he did the same

but they are playing duo now im trying to join as third so ig its something with firewall

what should i do with firewall?

The firewall can be fixed using the firewall tool -
