I've heared alot of people need to know how to port forward, and get players to join and play, well most of them are begginer's to make their own OT Server, so I decided to make a clean and Improved thread about how to make that and make sure you can get players to play :-
I will be telling you how to let players logon, create account and play without having problems like they cant logon waiting on character list and cant join the game, or also says wrong temple position..
Okay let's start.
First of all, after setting up your ot and testing it's going great on localhost, and you want to make it online and get people to join and play.
First of all try visiting this website to know how to port forward :-
PortForward.com - Free Help Setting up Your Router or Firewall
I'll explain here what you need to do because I have discovered that portforward.com website doesn't say that we have to port forward port 7172.
Okay..
Go to http://192.168.1.1 , and logon to your router the password is always set to "Admin", after logging on see the steps on portforward what it says, do what it says it will ask you to :-
*Port forward 7171for both TCP & UDP!
and the thing you must do is port forward 7172 also.
so you do the same as 7171 but just do it "7172" (another one) TCP & UDP also..
so now you have 2 port forwarding done
Here is how it looks for me :-
To find the numbers you must put in "Lan IP addres"
Open up Start -> Run
Then type "CMD" hit enter.
After that write "ipconfig" and hit enter in the black window that openes, scroll up..
here is a picture :-
now you are done port forwarding.
next step is easy just open up config.lua
put your IP addres in the IP = "ip here"
this part, u can see it here What Is My IP Address? - IP Address Lookup, Internet Speed Test, IP Info, plus more
after that now your players can join and play
If you got problems with "wrong temple position"
go to config.lua fix the account manager position to the temple position of a city in ur map
u must make sure in map editor the city temple positions are the same as the ones in config.lua
and also are the same in the ones in phpmyadmin!
and if you still got the problem
then your using sqllite..
----------------------------------------------------------------------
If no one can still logon or get the character list or so, then DISABLE the firewall on your computer from control panel, and also disable the firewall on the router, then its 100% will work fine, tested and it will work fine.
