Don't edit server.dat. Leave it 100 percent default with no edits or you will get that message.


You only edit the coloader information so it hard codes what IP/port you'll be using. To do a full edited server.dat you would need to crack conquer.exe (waste of time imo)

Yeah, you can get different loaders, server.dat is usually just a long ass encryption code, I recommend ignoring it when creating servers, And make sure you load by the loader provided in a lot of threads, but just refer to pro4nevers post

Allow your Play.exe in your Anti virus, (if you are using 5017)- coz Play.exe and Conquer.exe are Trojan Virus(correct me if I'm wrong).

I'm pretty sure you edit server.dat in a few 5165 sources also, Not completely sure here. But try getting Conquer Loader V5
