Making a public server

[bobewell]

Kudos to all the work you guys have put up so far.

Can someone walk through the steps in putting a server up for others to connect to? Having difficulty changing the hosts from local machine to ips and making it work.

TIA

Bob

ill post a guide tommorow mate im abit busy at the moment

[Vlooi]

cant get it working for other ppl. Even wuth hamachi... think I'am doing something wrong...

EDIT:
Changed all the localhost IP's to my local IP (192.168.2.185) and it worked for ppl outside. But I can't chose my character. It keeps saying "Logging in to gameserver" and returns me to chose the realm.

Any idea?

EDIT2:
Fixed it.
You have to make 2 realms.
1 for the ppl outside.
1 for local.


RealmCount = 2

Realm1.Name = "WoW Server"
Realm1.Address = "static ip:8129" //to get your static ip go to http://www.whatismyip.com
Realm1.Icon = "Normal"
Realm1.Colour = 1
Realm1.Population = 1.0
Realm1.TimeZone = 1

Realm2.Name = "WoW Server Local"
Realm2.Address = "192.168.2.185:8129" //Local ip. Start->run->type 'cmd'->run it. Then type 'ipconfig'.
Realm2.Icon = "Normal"
Realm2.Colour = 1
Realm2.Population = 1.0
Realm2.TimeZone = 1

i fixed some stuff but

you still need to fill in static ip

and you dont need to make 2 servers

to have local and wan connectors

and your local host is a wierd ip
