Msg. 1 of 9
I've been testing a dedi server for some of my friends and I to play on. I create the server, open up the game on the same computer (for testing purposes, because I don't have 2 computers). I have sv_public set to 0, so that the server is LAN. The server shows up in the LAN list, but when I try to join it, it fails, retries 4 times and gives me the "Unable to join game." error. Why is that?

Server port default 2302
You need to change the client port 2303 2304 |

I already have the server port as 2302 and client port 2303 in the network settings. With different settings the server doesn't show up.

You need to install sapp to the server
sv_name “server name” sv_motd motd.txt sv_public true sv_maxplayers 16 sv_password sv_timelimit sv_tk_ban 0 sv_mapcycle_timeout 10 sv_mapcycle_add "map name" “gamemode” load Maybe you are not a public IP  |

Hmmm the commands I use are:
sv_name Halo_DS sv_public 1 sv_maxplayers 12 sv_mapcycle_timeout 15 sv_mapcycle_add timberland slayer sv_mapcycle_begin load Output of sapp when I load it is: Loading SAPP... Starting threads... Searching for Halo functions... Patching Halo's code for codecaves... Loading commands... Failed to open Custom Commands file! Loading Lua scripts... Loading settings... Failed to open Events file! Failed to open Mapvotes file! Failed to open Mapcycle file! Failed to open SAPP init file! Network thread has been started! SAPP Version 10.2 CE by sehВ°°, originally by Termy || halo.isimaginary.com Successfully loaded sapp.dll! External IP Received: [my ip here]:2302 I do see it in my lan, so I don't think there's an issue with the ip?? |

SAPP 10.2 has errors try using a diff version of SAPP: I will look for 10.2.1 and upload here
aslo...make sure you have your ports "allowed" in your router: https://portforward.com/halo/ Edited by Kal_El on Jun 14, 2020 at 08:04 AM sapp 10.2.1: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5qjbpgzirx8xbwc/sapp.10.2.1.zip?dl=0 Edited by Kal_El on Jun 14, 2020 at 08:09 AM |

OOOOH That actually worked!! What I did was install sapp 10.2.1 and change my port to 2304. I don't think changing it to 2304 worked before. Anyways, thank you to everyone who helped, I can finally play halo with my friends!

Change your server port.
create a desktop shortcut in target box at the end add -port 2310 or make it a port above 2303, also open the port in your router. |
