It looks like UDP ports are still blocked. Maybe you just allowed TCP connections.
Its something to do with the server or either because im running it thru wine/linux while being in a vm the port just never gets listened
When I do it through Windows, I've had to open the ports on both my PC along with my router. Also nothing worked until I finally changed the dedicatedserver.cfg to have "SkipNetworkAccessibilityTest": true
Also assuming you've tried disabling the firewalld service on the VM. It's the first thing I do at work lol
yeh i done everything i could there no firewall all the ports open it just doesnt want to listen its like the server running but its not as it doesnt even try to listen to the ports
You have to configure the network settings in the vm as well it should be a bridged network if I’m right. But I guess the problem is the wine sandbox
But just to clear it up.. you are Hosting a Linux vm on your Windows machine to run sotf inside wine? I’m a bit confused
It's good practice for Linux people
ive just checked the vm settings. You should use NAT, you can setup port forwarding in the advanced options
tbh wine shinanigans are not a good pracise for linux people
Red Hat supremacy
Wine is use to emulate windows files to run in linux, but my issue is that it doesnt listen to the ports even within the vm
I know what wine is. And thats my point. I don’t think that this win sandbox is able to configure port forwarding. It’s a system inside of a system inside of a system and all of them have to enable port forwarding. Maybe it’s easier to host a windows machine and just run the server this way.
