FLServer IP

FLServer IP

I give up. I've been seaching Goolge Web/news and the different "fan sites" on the "list of fan sites" on microsoft's official siter for freelancer.

My best guess is, it's not possible, but in hope of the better I'll still try asking here.

Is is, or is it not possible, to get the freaking flserver to use a specifik IP and/or publish a specifik IP to the public list server ? everyone can connect to the server, no problem there. But I keep geting "Failed to make connection to list server...". I saw on one forum ( sorry, cant remember where ) that the list server tryes to ping the server, before it add's it to the list, and I assumed that would be the problem. I'we opened for ICMP packet's on the IP I want the FL server to run on, but still not luck. The server does not get on the list.

I have a dedicated server, on lots of bandwith, but I _NEED to_ have 2 IP's attached to the box, since the other IP is "taken" by an other application. I want FL to use the other IP.

btw. Theres a lot of talk/writing about a patch. Saw an old post, about it being alpha/beta, but has there been any progress ? ... are they any official patch'es ?
( i know, the offical website has non to download, so probley not, but could be, that someone had one, he was willing to share, given ofcource there som benefits in running with the patch )

If you have not done so already, there is info about a patch in other forums. Won't be out for a while I don't think. I am sorry, but I can't help you about your IP/ Server trouble as for some reason, I can't make my own server (E-mail me 4 further details!)

DA have had a 24/7 patch test server running for a while now (along with Elite, I gather) and I have been there on and off for a week or so. Although it may mean they are just moving to another version of the patch, this server is not on the list today.

From what I have experienced (no server crashes and auto-cheat booting to mention two) the patch looks like it is coming on well, and with a few small changes too (like no lvl 38 ceiling).

Although I am hoping for the server to reappear (so I can sell that ship load of cardamine I have in my hold), its absence may be good news too if the fixes are nearing completion.

One can only speculate and hope.

all i can say, is seattlebased and elite servers suck bad fat ass they created their own mods and have banned many legit users because they got jelous they play to the fullest. I have been so far banned from all servers because i have made 2mil under 5 hours of gameplay and can get my ship setup done within 25-30 mins after that. the so called "owners" take weeks even months then get jelous. They just cant suck enough, **EDIT**


Don't you ever learn?

lol what he said was true though.. seattle banned me when I was just in a starflier and maybe 2 missions done- logged in later and was banned.. elite banned me for reasons I guess they don't care to give me.. 2 emails and nothing back- assume it's because I had a stacked eagle and a million credits in 7 hours.. anyways there's better servers out there without newbies running them

Don't how these last post's relate to my quetion ?

anyway, i dont give a f*** about how long peoble take to get "all the goodies", or if they have fun threatinging other playeres to give up loots ...
In my opinonen that just makes the game more fun

but cheating is not fun for anyone, peoble how don't agree please stop flaming this thread ... please ? .. pretty please ? ....

You say you have ICMP open, but that only allows ping to go thru... The game runs on UDP packets, so you'll have to get firewall to open them up on ports 2302-2304.
Not sure what your network looks like, but mine requires me to have the router forward those ports to my flserver.
