Dss0 i tried that and it didn’t work. do my friends also have to set something up?

[Dss0]

shan_ no, post a screenshot of your port forwarding settings.

Dss0 my port settings reset i think that was the problem, should network discovery be on?

[Dss0]

shan_ those are just your network adapter settings on your pc, nothing to do with port forwarding (apart from having a static ip assigned, that is helpful).

[Dss0]

shan_ i don't see any rules for port 4976 there.

[shan_]

Dss0 what is that though?

[Dss0]

shan_ that is the port you have to forward, the port the game uses.. 4976 udp.

Dss0 I have the same problem, I created a rule in the firewall, a forward port for 4976 but it is still not working
