Problem solved, just change port 28960 to 4976 ! To connect to my server, I just need a VPN.
I don't understand why but thanks a lot for help !

Xerxes I ran the command and this is what I get :

Xerxes I checked the port fowarding on my router :

And I'm not sure how to use mutircon tool.

Xerxes I just used Wireshark to check and I have no client incoming traffic, only one client outbound traffic. I tried the same method with my T6 server and this time there was incoming traffic. However, I've checked several times that the network settings were as indicated in the tutorial: Port Fowarding + FireWall Rules.
Maybe the problem comes from the game files, but I simply imported the CoD Black Ops file from my steam account.

zone folder :

Console :

What's still disturbing is that instead of having a public address in "Binding to xxx", I have a local IP address.

Xerxes With the command "netstat -ano" on server cmd I can see the use of port 28960 with "set port=28960" when the dedicated server is launched. I've already applied the FireWall inbound and outbound rules and I tried to temporarily disable the FireWall but still nothing on the server list.

Xerxes I've just tested the VPN method but I don't see my server on the list. However, the server regularly sends heartbeats, it appears in the https://list.plutools.pw list and by typing the "status" command in the server console I get :

map: zombie_theater
num score ping guid name lastmsg address qport rate

I followed the T5 server creation tutorial and opened ports 28960 to 28963 in UDP on my router and FireWall, just as the IW5 and T6 servers work perfectly on ports 27016 UDP and 4976 UDP respectively.
Obviously, I tested the server on all four ports: 28960, 28961, 28962, 28963.

I don't know what's causing this problem.

Xerxes Thanks but my router doesn't support NAT-Loopback or custom firmware due to its lack of features. Is there another way of connecting to my dedicated server via the list without going through these options ?

Kalitos Yes, that's normal, I've stopped the server temporarily and I've just restarted it. And yes, I have a static IP address.

Kalitos No, I'm running the dedicated server and the game on two different PC on the same connection. So generally to join my IW5 and T6 servers I use the "192.xxx.xxx.xxx:port" command, but for T5 it doesn't work. And I was wondering how to reach my own server hosted on another PC on the same network without being able to see my server on the list and with not working commands : "connect 192.xx.xx.xx:port" and "connect 127.0.0.1:port".

Thank you for your answer! Unfortunately the commands:
"connect 192.xx.xx.xx:port" and "connect 127.0.0.1:port" don't work in T5 game.
I get the in-game message: "No available sessions were found".

Hi everyone,

I was wondering how, after creating a zombie T5 server, I could connect to my own server via the connect 192.xx.xx.xx:port or connect 127.0.0.1:port command, knowing that I don't see my server on the list and that the "connect" command is unusable on T5?
"Why can't i connect to my server via the console?#
T5 works differently in this regard, here you don't connect to servers via IP but via their Session ID that is aquired from our backend. You can't connect to servers directly using their IP on T5."

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks in advance

UP ?

I've got the same problem and nothing happen

Hi everyone,

I'm actually hosting a IW5 server with Infected gamemode and without pre-match timer, the first people joining are more likely to become the first infected while other players are still in loading screen.

I would like to solve that problem by adding a pre-match timer allowing an equiprobable chance of being infected.

How can I put a pre-match timer ?

Thank you in advance
