Same network, diff comp, connection error

[Caixon]

I've looked but what i've seen so far i've double checked and i have everything right. So here we go:

I can access my server from the server pc, anyone else who has the proper game.exe can access the server. All of the necessary ports are open for it to be open to the public the only issue is that when I try to connect from my own laptop (Same network different computer) no matter if i use my public I.P address or the local host ip address I always get a cannot connect to login server error.


This stumbles me more than anything else that i've done on my server and I hope its not something small that i'm overlooking.



Any small help is appreciated or even a nudge in the right direction

wen u say your local network IP u mean 127.0.0.1?or 192.168.x.x?

[Caixon]

Ooops sorry should have mentioned that iused the 127.0.0.1 not the other. Should I try that one? Or...?

[zokylove]

yea try using the other 1 .check the IP of main PC(were u host the server) the 1 whit 192.168.x.x and set up your game.exe on that IP.
