Posted March 7, 2016 (edited) Me and a friend just bought Wurm Unlimited, and are trying to host our own server to play on, but we can't seem to figure out how. There's a disappointing lack of information on this. We've opened all the ports that are apparently needed, and only the host can see the server show up on his Friends tab, but not me. Is there something we're doing wrong? The ports we've opened are: 8766 TCP/UDP 27016-27030 UDP 3724 TCP 7220 TCP 7221 TCP Edited March 7, 2016 by TheManOfPie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 7, 2016 Are you using the dedicated server client? Make sure you have the ports properly setup in the GUI. 7220 / 7221 are RMI ports and are not required unless you are linking clusters, nor should they be opened to the public. They are intranet ports and shouldn't be publicly opened as they pose a massive security risk. You only need 27016 open as that is the STEAM query port. Make sure you add the Wurm Unlimited Dedicated Server .exe to your windows firewall, or atleast make sure it isn't being blocked by Windows Firewall. A lot of the times it will ask you to verify it when you launch it and if you exit it without pressing yes, it will block the client which in return will block all ports relating to it. 27016 / 3724 need to be opened private / domain / public, if they are not open publicly then no one but the host himself will be able to see. By the sounds of it, if the host can see it and no one else can. It is a port forwarding problem, likely a user error in forwarding the ports through the firewall of choice. * NOTE - The ports need to be forwarded on the hosts computer AND router * Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
