Css Server not going online. Help!

[Pimpstar]

Hello Guys.. New day, new problems..

I just started making my own server (actually redone it about 6-8 times now) since i cant find out why its only going lan.. It's not because of the sv_lan, cuz it on '0' all the time.

I have forwarded the right ports:

1200 1200 UDP
27000 27015 UDP
27020 27039 TCP/UDP
27015 27016 TCP

still, when running the server, it does not show the:

"Adding Master Server" thingy.. it just shows my ip, and makes a lan server (that i CAN join) but no other can (well, not online friends, it only works as a lan server.)..

i have no idea how to get it to work, i have spent 2 HOLE days now, searching forums, google and so on.. i simply just cant figure out what is preventing it from going online/connecting to master servers or what else i can be.

Anyone have any ideas? would be ever so thankfull!..

Cheers..

Edit: This is my server.bat text "C:\HLserver\srcds.exe -console -game cstrike -tickrate 80 +fps_max 600 +maxplayers 16 -port 27015 +exec server.cfg +map de_dust2 -secure"

and this is what i am seing once starting the server:



shouldent i be seing something like this:

"Adding master at 72.165.61.189
Adding master at 207.173.177.11
Adding master at 65.73.232.251:27040
Adding master at 65.73.232.253:27040
Adding master at 207.173.177.12:27010
Connection to Steam servers successful.
VAC secure mode is activated."

Because as you can see, i am not.

Hi,

Sorry I can't help you Pimpstar. I've been trying for two or three weeks to get my HL2DM server to show up in the Steam server list without success. Must have read every thread on the 'net about it. It's totally frustrating I know.

If you do figure it out please post your solution in case it can help me and all the others that are completely stuck.

Good luck!

Hi lol554,

I don't want to hijack Pimpstars thread or be impolite to you but as he's been trying for a while, searching forums etc., to try to resolve his problem I expect that he's already been down that road. Checking for open ports is always one of the first suggestions on any forum.

As it happens I hadn't heard of canyouseeme.org so thanks for that one.

[lol554]

Very few (sorry) noobs know about canyouseeme.org. Most of the noobs begins to panic if the server doesn't work the first time, and doesn't even think about the ports before posting a topic on the forums.

I wanted to isolate this problem. If canyouseeme.org tells that your port is open, it is. Also, if possible, the issue can be isolated further by linking the host PC directly to the internet, instead of being behind a router.

About your A2C_PRINT stuff, there should already be a topic about this on the forum (i think).

Error: I could not see your service on xxx.xxx.xxx.xx on port (27015)
Reason: Connection timed out

Try to link your computer directly on to your modem. If canyouseeme still tells you that error, it's something with your firewall. If it's successfull, the problem lays in your router firewall.

Works fine with direct connection.. But my server still wont work though...

[lol554]

Ok, the problem then lays in your router. You haven't forwarded the ports right (i think).

Oops, looks like I may have to eat my words

I cant figure out what the problem with the router is.. i have forwarded all the right ports.
still, its not connecting to master servers, not getting online, only lan...

weird how "http://www.canyouseeme.org" still wont tell me the ports are succesfully open.. hmmf.
