Trying to join custom games, but it never joins

[Hail]

aguantebo If you're clicking the button to actually start the match, I believe that you still need to type in xpartygo into the console.

If you were doing this already, like Dss0 stated above, make sure UPnP is enabled, and it's not conflicting with your internet plan -- also the forwarded ports should help out as well. Usually, there is an Internal/External Start and End point to successfully forward the ports. All 4 of these need to successfully be entered correctly in your administrator panel of your router's login page.

Hopefully any information given to you here will help

I actually tried everything you said, but we kept with the same problem, and now we tried with a new friend and it happens the same, I really don't know why, because we did everything you said!

[vinitk]

Same problem here

[Dss0]

aguantebo have you tried having them connect via the console?

connect yourwanip

you can see your wan ip here https://whatsmyip.com/

[vinitk]

Dss0 I and my friend we try and nothing happens, my upnp is enabled, my firewall is disativated and nothing, here is a print from my router

[Dss0]

vinitk no need to censor that ip, it's your pc's lan ip. Well atleast it should be, double check that.

[aguantebo]

Dss0 yes, we tried everything you said, but when we try to join each other, the sign of joining game session appears for 3 seconds and after that it disappears.

[vinitk]

Yes, is that ip, i have the pattern of do that sorry

[vinitk]

aguantebo yes, is the same here, we do all right and this happens

[Dss0]

aguantebo vinitk can you check if your router has a status page or a place where it shows the WAN ip? If yes compare it with the one you see here https://whatsmyip.com/. If it's not the same you're behind a carrier grade nat and won't be able to host servers.

[vinitk]

Dss0 I can't host custom game too? I saw there and my ip really is diferent

[Dss0]

vinitk afraid not, you can call your isp and ask for a static ip.

[vinitk]

Dss0 okay, my friend have a upnp enabled, the ip WAN is the same ip on the https://whatsmyip.com/ but i can't join him, i try with the button home and with the ip but not suceed

[vinitk]

vinitk just show "joining game" for some seconds and nothing happens

[Dss0]

vinitk idk man. Maybe try radmin, connect via the console using the radmin ip of the host.

aguantebo I got custom games working with my friend when we both used logmein hamachi. You dont have to port forward that way but a downside to this is that the player who's joining has to start on round 2. But i think the command map_restart might be able to set it back to round 1 with both players still in the server

Scramble4 I used Hamachi as well and I still have this problem, it was working perfectly fine yesterday but now it isn't, my friend can connect to me but I cant connect to him. is using and ethernet cable a problem?
