after much testing and working with the development team at gamemaster the ps2 swbf1 no patch server can now be used again via gamemaster. make a new network profile on your ps2 called gamemaster. set dns 1: to 5.230.233.61
set dns 2: to 000.000.000.000 here is my vid example for the ps2 network startup disc
if you want to run your own server. it has been updated and ready to go using gamemaster eu. no need to install it just extract the zip folder on your pc desktop or on a hard drive. use the batch file *tweak to your liking* to start the server. if windows firewall pops up allow the rule. forward port 3658 udp on your router. run the missingfilesetup*included in the server folder download* if server does not start up. server download: https://mega.co.nz/#!KY5h2bBZ!tNLWoGNOwZO47Bh6wcY_pIfvV2OchzTZuyY2BUmXZmE this server is updated for fast spawn.
there are problems with ps2 players not being able to join there own servers using one router. i got around this problem while testing by doing the following. run a bunch of dummy servers with the batch file. example is: run one server. port 3658,run the batch file again 3659, run the batch file again 3660 and again 3661etc etc, until you have run the server with port 3666 open. now close all the dummy servers you open and leave open the ones that have ports forward enabled. this will let your ps2 on the same router have ports 3658/3659 free and clear .*using active ports program can help with this*. i made ports 3666 3667 3668 udp open on my router*for server program*. may 9 2015 made some updates and fixed the hoth crashing ps2 map here is the updated link https://mega.co.nz/#!KY5h2bBZ!tNLWoGNOwZO47Bh6wcY_pIfvV2OchzTZuyY2BUmXZmE
