      lllBaraalll You say "Host Games" in your message but your also mention UPNP and Port Forwarding, neither of these two are required to host a game with friends. All of the internet traffic in routed through plutonium so you can just invite a friend to your party and start a custom game.

      If your creating a dedicated server then you must create a UDP port forward for the port specified in your "!start_zm_server.bat" file. Ensure your router and machine are both capable of port forwarding before doing so.

        If your port forwarding is done properly and not blocked by firewalls etc it works. Can't say more with no info at all

          Plutonium is a VPN now?
          Nah it's not, private matches are P2P. Usually this works without port forwarding just like it does on the vanilla game because of upnp. In some cases this doesn't work so one may need to manually open the port.

            Dss0 Ah okay a misunderstanding, from what I thought it was you could just invite friends to your party through pluto servers and just start a custom game. Didnt know it was UPNP
