If i use this, will my server only be up when the host computer is on. or will it make it stay on 24/7? email me at champ3992@yahoo.com with an answer.

This is sort of laughable...but only when the host is on.

Edit: That's like saying you can download files while your computer is off.

ya, i kno, but i wish there was a way, cuz i cant leave my host on 24/7. if any1 has a dedicated server and would like to share (no cost ) im here. all im going to do is 1 css server and a ts server.

[Andrew]

Hence why dedicated servers are used

Obviously, you need your host online to be running servers.

ok, i got a host but i need to kno which ports to open.

[Andrew]

GameCreate Client only needs port 1224 open.

Each game server you have running will need the appropriate ports open, check the game's faq/readme to find out what these are.

For some reason, it wont work from my home pc. I kno o need a dedicated server, but i would like one for free (wishfull) if any one wants to share. I only need 480 Kbps of bandwith. and 50mb of free space. any1 want to help. plz

[Andrew]

What does not work? What error do you get.

[New User]

it says we gamecreate only works on computers with direct connection to internet and that mine is on a lan.

[New User]

and is there a way to remotely turn on/off/restart my hosts with gamecreate??

[Andrew]

You can make GameCreate Client login with a specific IP (if you have multi IPs or your LAN ip is hiding your real one) by opening gamecreate.ini and adding a line:

ip 123.123.123.123

Where you put your real IP address.

Also, at this time you cannot make GameCreate reboot your hosts themselves. We had this in an earlier (years) ago version, but thought it was not needed for now as usually theres some permission problems (eg, linux needs root to reboot, or admin on windows when needed) and also the idea of being able to reboot the box from the web is a bit dodgy without proper security.

If you wanted to run GameCreate on a server at home that had a dynamic ip address could you use a dynamic dns service such as dyndns.org?

e.g

---gamecreate.ini---

ip mydyndns.dyndns.org

Well, i dont want to do it at home anymore. cuz, i dont have enough bandwith to host servers. So, im looking for a free server to use. (like thats gonna happen) But, if any1 want to share. i here.

[Andrew]

MrBlue, no, not at this time - its not supported.

New User, depending on where you are on the world, you can usually get dedicated servers from a data center for rent.

i still have a problem. whenever i download gamecreate on a computer, it says im on a lan wit ip 192.168.*.** and it wont work. so, wat am i supposed to do??
