About Master Server.

by Prodigy Andy · in Torque Game Engine · 10/11/2006 (7:26 pm) · 5 replies

I follow the ALT-CH6 of book <3D Game Programming All-in-One > to make my dedicate server through GG master server. But I can't find my dedicate server. why?

If I change the $Client::GameTypeQuery to "Any" in function QueryMasterServer, I can find other body's server, but still can't find mine.

QueryMasterServer(0,$Client::GameTypeQuery,$Client::MissionTypeQuery,0,100,0,2,0,100,0);

I link to Internet through ADSL at home , which is the maybe cause?

Andy.

Check you've forwarded/opened the following ports

28000 to 28002
1031 and 1048

Thanks Gary.

I once closed my firewall soft, but I forgot to disable my Norton which may blocked the connection and did not let me know.

And I can find my server in GG master server now. But I find another issue. When I click the "Join " button, the game closed automatically. And I will face the next big challange. :)

Here I have a new question about master server.

What is the relation among GG Master server, My dedicate server and User client?

When a User Join a dedicate server showed in GG Master server, does the user client directly communicate with the dedicated server bypass the GG Master server?
