Direct Connect Problems

Post by P-51 »

I tried hosting games through direct connect yesterday and other players were not able to find my game. Is there any known explanation for this that could help me solve this issue?

Either your ports are closed/your gateway is unreachable or you just gave them the wrong IP.

I checked the ports and they were in my router. Also I could host games normally through the lobby. What does "gateway is unreachable" mean?

Thank you for the help.

Problem solved. I forwarded the port to the wrong device o_O

Didn't have to worry about that 15 years ago!

Thanks!
