If it helps anyone,

When you set up a server, and need to open a port on your router and when you use Windows 7, you can easily access it, and not do the whole progress of figuring out IP's of your router etc.

To use this function, go to; Computer -> Network -> (Router), if its detected by your pc. Then, you use your RMB (Right Mouse Button) on it, and access its webpage to open the ports for it.

Im trying to host a server and in the txt files do you have to add "get_add_to_game_servers_list 1" so that its added to the official game servers list?  Because it wasnt included in there until I read the readme.txt

Edit:  When I host it with the "get_add_to_game_servers_list" It still do not show up in the official servers list. Any Ideas

Anyone know the difference between set_pass and set_private_pass? As far as I can see in game they don't do much differently.

I followed the instructions to the letter and for some reason I can never find my own server. It never appears on the list. I'm at a loss for possible reasons, but I did notice in the cmd box for the server it said this...

(click to show/hide)

and when I attempt to run a TDM dedicated server...

(click to show/hide)

Could this be the potential kink my my proverbial plan?

That's all normal. If you're on the same LAN as the dedicated server look in the LAN area instead of the Internet area.

So how, precisely, do I get it to appear in the internet section?

It won't for you, it should be for everyone not on your LAN.

You are correct. It is in my LAN, but the other person I have searching for it cannot find it on the server list.

Port forwarding settings aren't quite correct then. Download PFChecker and make sure your port is listed as open.

How exactly do you get a server to host more than 64 players? I've seen plenty of servers with 70 - 222 max players on them.

Thanks very much for the helpful topic.  I managed to follow your directions pretty well, and can now view my server under the LAN menu when it's running.  However, I get this error twice every time I run the server: RGL WARNING: Failed to scan folder [Logs] with wildcard [Logs\*].  I haven't yet tried to have my friends join my game over the internet, but am hopeful that they will be able to do so now, as they couldn't see my hosted games before.  Thanks again, and let me know if you have any thoughts about the Logs error.
