Title: Cannot host in BF1
Post by: Anyder on February 13, 2013, 02:16:17 PM
Hello ppl, i need help =S
ACE has a root since 3 - 4 months ago
He has 4 swbf2 server (i say bcuz its important) but for some reason he cannot host in bf1
He says he has followed all steps and that when he hosts, he does on LAN, but server isnt shown in list.
He has port forwarded (as i know) many ports (this is why i mentioned the bf2 servers),(even as i know u dont need to), but nothing works...
Anyone has any idea ?

Yes, tell him to start SWBF and see if he can see any servers though tunngle.  Also, tell us what his tunngle name is, so we can see if he is making a connection.

I saw ACE today in game, so I think he can see servers.

he can see them, but not host with his root
Everything is configured (he told me) with the green smily face and those things

uef-clan is the root tunngle username, uefACE is his tunngle name

What Anyder wanted to ask is if anyone has a solution for following problem
(Please read before posting wannabe-expert solutions like: "Have you already installed Tunngle?" or "Are you sure you didn't accidently tried this for own Hello Kitty online servers?")


1. We have a root server. No ingame-selfhost-crap.
2. We installed Tunngle and followed EVERY. SINGLE. step of the tutorial on the following site: www.uef-clan.com/battlefront
3. Yes, we switched to Lan mode as well.
4. Yes, the tutorial should work, as it was used by like 2-3 other clans with rootservers and worked.
5. Except for us.
6. We can see our special hosting Tunngle account "uef-clan" in the Star Wars Battlefront channel.
7. Others can see our special hosting Tunngle account "uef-clan" in the Star Wars Battlefront channel, too.
8. When starting the game and searching for Lan servers, noone can see our server in the serverlist.
9. We run Tunngle as admin (both, as Client and Host).
10. The Tunngle connection smiley for the root-Tunngle is green and smiles like a badass.
11. We manually enabled the ports in Tunngle on the root.
12. Help?

In case someone says, ''Those instructions are wrong''.
Lemme tell u no, it helped a 1.0 clan friend (if u see the greek version is bcuz i asked for it to Jaz).
I bet Jaz installed tunngle in her PC following the instructions (of www.uef-clan.com/battlefront ), and so she followed those when she installed on root.

I run 3 "root" servers.  Tunngle worked on two, did not work at all on one. 

Good luck.

Does it make a difference what the face is? Mine is straight (no expression) and yellow. Is there something different that is needed to host a server or is the one you currently have "legit"
Title: Re: Cannot host in BF1
Post by: Anyder on February 15, 2013, 10:17:41 AM
The yellow one isnt the recomended one, but this is the reason why u can sometimes not see SWBF servers

whats the name of the root server host?
Title: Re: Cannot host in BF1
Post by: Anyder on February 15, 2013, 11:01:34 AM
Deagle its like ur server (from Hetzner)
Habi told me that he thinks he can fix this, but anyway, we still need help

Is is correct to assume that you have already turned off your firewall and you have no hardware firewall/router involved?

Obvous, they have unfirewalled it, adn the battlefront.exe of the dedicated server tools
Title: Re: Cannot host in BF1
Post by: DEAGLE on February 16, 2013, 01:07:15 AM
try shutting down the swbf2 servers first? maybe the server tool doesnt detect already used ports when you put it on lan.

As i know, 2 days ago, ACE told me he was rebooting root (closing all servers (SWBF2, TS, Minecraft,...)
He did, he started tunngle and then he tried again but it didnt work
