Hello everyone. Can someone Help me to Setup a Dedicated Server?
I tried with this Tutorial. But i did Something wrong.
https://wiki.trackmania.io/en/dedicated-server/Setup/Windows
i think i just did this 2 steps wrong
1:Port thing
2:i dont understand that step "To start your server, you'll need to supply at least the following command line arguments: /dedicatedcfg=dedicated_cfg.txt and /game_settings=MatchSettings/example.txt"
Yes the problem with this tutorial is it dont talk about MatchSettings, you have to create one.
check this : https://wiki.trackmania.io/en/dedicated-server/Usage/MatchSettings
So in the command line you can specify the matchsettings file.
For the ports, you can share the output of your server and/or the dedicated config (without passwords 😆)
example.txt has matchsettings already defined
Hello, I'm having the same difficulties to set up the port things as you did, can I ask you how you made it work ? I know this thread is old, sry x)
which problem
port forwarding or matchsettings?
technically both ? I mean, it seems like I can just create a matchsetting file anyways but the port forwarding is hard to wrap my head around... tried following the linked tutorial (from the wiki setup totorial) but it seems you need to pay to modify your router's port forswarding through the recommended app
you shouldn't need to pay to port forward
search how to port forward on your router brand
Still on portforward.com ? They don't know my router brands, is there an other site I can search on or should I look directly for my brand ?
on google
i'll remove that link from the wiki page since it's just an ad for their software
thx, it's true that outside of their product's usage it's kinda useless xd
I think I managed to forward a port, on my router interface, it looks like this :
It's in the NAT/PAT section of my configuration panel, which I think is what you mention in the tutorial (sorry I'm absolutely clueless when it comes to how global/local networks are working)
I think NAT is correct? It's different for every router brand so I don't know exactly
My console currently looks like that, does that mean I'm done with port things and can focus on customizing the match settings ?
Your matchsettings is only using maps that don't exist in the server userdata
You need to add those maps files
Or use example.txt for now
Yep, I think now I need to look into how to write the matchsetting file and how to make custom scripts, thx forthe support !
