Hey all, guess who's back? lol anyways, I need some help setting up a server:

Okay, I've done everything to try and create a server, I do have a router, I believe it's a Linksys Wired Router. I've went into my Network Place, selected properties, and went into the IP settings, and selected TCP/IP Filtering, and then opened up all ports (when I open only 28060-28090 Internet Explorer does not work, nor does my messangers)
Then I've turned off Zone Alarm, and started my server with my server.cfg file. Now, my server should show up in the list... well it still odesn't... any ideas?

Your "This kicks the server into gear" section is kind of unorthodox, and probably doesn't work. I'd recommend the following (for the same effect)

Quote:
// THIS KICKS THE SERVER INTO GEAR

seta g_automapcycle 1
set fs_game academy // loads the JAmod and automatically executes its default config
exec "JediMaps.cfg"
// exec "academy.cfg" // uncomment if you have a custom JAmod config
map ffa_bespin

There is no execmod command, writeconfig will overwrite your jk2mp cfg, making your client unplayable, and wait is definitely not required.

From your mention of jk2mp.exe I deduced that you're launching the server from the MP client. A slightly better route to take is to download the dedicated server, paste your cfg (with the modifications above) as its server.cfg, and run that.

you need to forward the port range on the router, to your server.
DO NOT go crazy there.
I heavily advise you to not put your rig with deactivated firewall (!) into the DMZ, or whatsoever.

just open up the port range required for the gameserver. or just open up 20000-50000 UDP/TCP, but keep the low ports unforwarded.
if u cant figure out how to do that, pup up ur ZA again, and gain the gameserver server rights (duh) and set security to high (if u dont have this already)

and of course your mates will need your "outside IP", check whatismyip.com or similiar for that, coz that wil lbe the server IP then.
you also might have to bind the server to that IP - but i think the jk games are smart enough.

No, it shows up only on the list for ME, and NOT for others.

It won't show up on the list to you, only for others.
