I just installed a server on my computer and started it up and it says connection to steam servers successful vac secured..but it does not show up on steam master server list. I think I forwarded the right ports on my router and turne doff my anti virus firewall.

Any suggestions? Thank you

You will NOT see the server on the internet list if it's already on your LAN.
Others should be able to see it.

Can you connect via your external IP?

do you have

sv_lan 0

on your server.cfg?

If I try to connect with my external IP it says server not responding

Yes that is in my server.cfg

What ports should be forwarded, maybe I have the wrongs ones?

[Dub]

TCP ports 27020-27039
UDP port 1200
UDP ports 27000-27015


also make sure you are forwarding to the correct internal ip such as

192.168.0.2

u can type in your server when u boot it up status. and check what it is. i may be

192.168.0.100
192.168.0.5
192.168.0.3

so on..

this is in the properties of my srcds shortcut under target:
C:\HL2DS\orangebox\srcds.exe -game empires +maxplayers 14 -port 27015 -console +map emp_canyon -autoupdate

amd I supposed to do anything else once i start server?

[Dub]

try removing -port 27015 since its defaulted at 27015

so it will be

C:\HL2DS\orangebox\srcds.exe -game empires +maxplayers 14 -console +map emp_canyon -autoupdate
