Basically what the title says, it is stable, a friend and me both have around 40-70 ping, but the browsers says 9999 ping, any ideas how to fix it?
You need a dedicated server for it to have a "real" ping.
NFO Servers is a good choice -- it's what we use.
Very fair, though I don't know if I have the money to keep the server up yet, nor do I have the know-how atm. I'll keep this one up for fun though! Thank you!
He is using dedicated software on a different pc, I thought there was a way?
I've got a vague memory of disabling firewalls but I could be thinking of Gamespy days.
Has to forward more ports. More details later
That would make sense, though I forwarded all the ports mentioned in the sticky
NAT with a router can cause some issues, but try to forward these ports to your game server:
27900-27920
and
28910
29910
You may be able to narrow down the port range if it works.
I will also note that even gamespy had this issue. There was a "trick" to being able to join 9999 ping servers even, but it is not needed anymore since Kalle made Gamemaster (what we use for SWBFspy).
We also have a private forum for server hosts if you would like to be in it. It is a little inactive, but we have discussions about server problems, etc.
If I can learn more about it sure! I added the ports, so hopefully that fixes it. The problem also isn't that you can't join, but it just says 9999 ping

Thanks. There is a github release of Gamemaster that might also give some clues. If you are an active programmer there are things that would be nice to add/fix. :cheers:
