Server Issues (please this is urgent)
Server Issues (please this is urgent)
I have posted this before but seems no one has helped. My server name shows up as my IP. Now I heard I needed a domain but most costs money which I cannot pay. Also to make a server 24/7 is there a free way to do that? Please let me know ASAP.

You have to keep the server window open, yes. See here for how to make the server launcher.Rick2 wrote:Do I have to Keep my minetest window open? and btw... i havnt made a --server file yet i need a tutorial on that as well
Just use your IP. You do not need a domain/sub-domain.Rick2 wrote:Sfan5 btw, on the free domain site u gave me. I am having trouble with it
Please post a tutorial. i would appriciate it
We do help. It is just that you seem to be having problems with the help we give you.Rick2 wrote:How come nobody can seem to help me with this? Many people have done it I just don't understand why they won't help.
Make sure you have publicly listed it: server_announce = true.Rick2 wrote:See now, it doesnt even show up in public list anymore. I'm getting irritated with it all. I have been tryign to do this for about 2 months and everytime I ask yall send me back to the same post that I do not understand at all.

That is a good idea. Also, you should edit your previous 2 posts into one.Rick2 wrote:Maybe I could screenshot my router settings and minetest conf. stuff then you could tell me if something is wrong?
