goldenbunny · 2021-01-23 10:55:07

Ok so I'm dumb where is this option and thank you for the help the 2.4 patch helped.

Uncheck dedicated server

goldenbunny · 2021-01-22 23:10:01

You people can get the server open I can't event do that because when I try it opens something called ucc.exe and it does nothing other then print text is there a patch that I missed please help me.

I appreciate the amount of work that has gone into keeping Rainbow Six alive but can someone who actually understands this stuff please post a clear guide on how to set the game up for private servers for people who are not programmers. I want to play against a buddy back home but neither of us are IT guys. Thank you.

I'm having this same problem and it is really pissing me off. I even set my system to "DMZ" mode and I can't even join the server using my local IP on the SAME DAMN MACHINE THATS RUNNING THE SERVER.

Thanks again for the help guys. It is much appreciated!

However, I have tried Forwarding the Ports on my Modem/Router and nothing has changed again. Just to make sure I'm doing it right I'll explain:

I went to the port forwarding section of my router, added 3 new rules with these ports:

RavenShield 1 Protocol: UDP Source Ports: 7777-7787 Destination IP: My IP Destination Ports: 7777-7787

RavenShield 2 Protocol: UDP Source Ports: 8777-8787 Destination IP: My IP Destination Ports: 8777-8787

RavenShield 3 Protocol: UDP Source Ports: 9777-9787 Destination IP: My IP Destination Ports: 9777-9787

In the ravenshield.ini and default.ini files the game port is left at 7777. Have I made a mistake or is this correct? The issue remains the same.

I know what's happening, and why he can not join. But here the legacy friend does not allow me to help.

I'll just tell you to configure your ports well. If you are using port 7777, then you should configure 8777 and 9777 for the udp ports, and so if you use another port.

If you use 7777 configure 8777 and 9777 as the udp ports.

If you use for example another 10777, then the udp should be, 11777 and 12777.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Review the configuration files, default.ini and ravenshield.ini of you server.

1- Configure the port game 7777 in Ravenshield.ini

2- Check the config and default.ini, you need to have configured this.

[IpDrv.UdpBeacon]
DoBeacon=True
ServerBeaconPort=8777
BeaconPort=9777
BeaconTimeout=10.000000
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
NOTE # You must open the ports in TCP and UDP from the NAT configuration of your router or device.
NOTE # Open the selected ports for the IP local of the host.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Example 1 (WORKS)

7777 TCP/UDP
8777 TCP/UDP
9777 TCP/UDP

Example 2 (WORKS)

7777 TCP
8777 TCP
9777 TCP
7777 UDP
8777 UDP
9777 UDP

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- Independent of this information, what Legacy claims is also correct.
- Although this configuration is different It also works, personally for me it works correctly.

Mike, do you know how to Port Forward in your firewall/router? You can try to open these ports: UDP: 7777-7787,8777-8787 it seems in your case like your ISP or firewall program is blocking the game maybe perhaps because they are unique ports no games really use these days. Considering your issues connecting to even the public servers with T3 set.

Mike · 2018-04-03 05:30:31

Thanks for the reply Legacy.

Unfortunately I've already done all of that (Lastest patch, T3, Win XP compatibility, Admin rights) and nothing has changed at all. The game will launch the server, but noone can join and it will keep locking up every few seconds. I've tried different connection settings and nothing changes it.

I am also having an issue with the public servers aswell. I'll join one and play a couple of maps but then the connection will eventually fail and I cannot rejoin ANY servers because none in the list will respond. The list will show the server names but no map name, or player counts. After I wait 20 minutes or so sometimes I can get back in. I have no idea what might cause this.

Thats because you guys need to do some things in order to make it work. Message me at http://www.R6CHAT.com (via Discord app http://discordapp.com/download) and I can help you out there. Join the Discord community over 1000 of us at this time!
I say you guys play on the ALLR6 servers, they are quite fun. I swear I am not biased LOL.

But here are some more things to do.

- Note for LAN, your friends gotta connect to your external public IP not the same IP that you connect to.

- All of you and friends need the ALLR6 2.4 patch [ http://allr6.com/discuss/viewtopic.php?id=3 ]

- All of you set connection speed to T3 in options.

- Set Ravenshield.exe to Run as Administrator and set compatibility for Windows XP SP3 among other things.

Townsend, sounds like you need to port forward.

Mike, bro i have the same issue... I can't for the life of me figure out what's going on.

Mike · 2018-04-01 09:00:26

I have the same issue. Also when hosting a private server the game will keep freezing momentarily for 10 seconds making it unplayable. It doesn't seem to matter whether my friend hosts the server or I do. Please if anyone knows how to fix private hosting please help.

BVYM-Townsend · 2018-01-18 19:14:27

I'd like to create my own server to just play with a friend. However, he receives the "server not responding" message when he tries to join my server. He cannot see my server on the server browser, so he inputs my IP, but he can never connect. Is there anything we're doing wrong? We can join already running servers and play together, but we'd prefer to play privately, if possible. Any help would be appreciated!
