AAI Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 Hi, I'm having a problem in multiplayer. When I create a Dedicated internet server, It doesn't show up in-game, even under empty servers. Why is this not working?
Neverhoodian Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 Have you updated the game to the 1.01 patch? If not, it can be found here.
Amidala from Chop Shop Posted November 22, 2004 Posted November 22, 2004 You are probably looking in the wrong place. You are probably looking in the Internet section with all of the other servers, right? But are you using the Internet to connect to your server? No, you aren't. You are on a Local Area Network (LAN) with your server. Therefore, look in the Local category and there you will find it. But if it is visible over the Internet to other people, they will see your server in their Internet category, because they are connecting to your server over the Internet.
AJL Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 I think I have similar problem... If I make server it doesn't ever show up in the Internet server lists (NO-ONE can see it) but it is there in internet because peoples can connect using my IP. It just doesn't show up in the lists...
AAI Posted November 23, 2004 Author Posted November 23, 2004 So, what will I do to let me and others see it?

If I make server it doesn't ever show up in the Internet server lists (NO-ONE can see it) but it is there in internet because peoples can connect using my IP. It just doesn't show up in the lists... It looks like you have set up a LISTEN server. It is connected to the Internet but it doesn't broadcast heartbeats to the master server, so it is "invisible". However, if someone knows the IP address they can connect to it. An INTERNET server broadcasts heartbeats to the master server, so it shows up in server browsers. To run an INTERNET server, add +set dedicated 2 to the shortcut or commandline that launches the server. JediAcademy Runner has a radio-button control that lets you select LAN, Listen, or Internet server. +set dedicated 1 in the command line makes a Listen server.
AJL Posted November 23, 2004 Posted November 23, 2004 When I add +set dedicated 2 to the command line my server actually show up COOL! But can I somehow make the normal non dedicated server show up too ??
AAI Posted November 23, 2004 Author Posted November 23, 2004 Where exactly do I add +set dedicated 2 to? The console when the game closes, or the server name or my application starter? Even when I do add +set dedicated 2 to any of these and set the game up as a dedicated internet server, it shows up in local.

Because YOU are connecting to your server on a Local Area Network (LAN), it will always be LOCAL for YOU, even if it is in the INTERNET section for OTHER PEOPLE. +set dedicated 2 goes in the command line that starts the server. If you make a shortcut to jamp.exe or jampded.exe to launch the game, it goes at the end of the path in Target under the Properties of the shortcut.
