<html> <body bgcolor="#FFFFFF"> go to the aw help site.. there was somewhere where you add a line to the aw.ini file that changed the default ports damn saw it yesterday probably was in the 3.1 beta page [View Quote] </body> </html> lord vectorJan 10, 2001, 1:02pm
If you are hosting the world your self then the line you need to add to the
aworld.ini file in the world server directory is as follows:- [world] name= password= port=7013 [rights] the port range can run from 7000 - 7777 posibly higher but I havent found the need to yet :) hope that helps you out. regards, Lord Vector. [View Quote] builderzJan 10, 2001, 6:57pm
I believe you can use ports 1024 to 65535 to host a world server (on a
Windows based machine). It is not limited to the 7000 port range. The default port the world server uses is 7777, which Tini uses as well (for more information about Tini, please see http://ntsecurity.nu/toolbox/tini/). -Builderz [View Quote] |
