Default Fyi

Works a charm with Windows Server 2016.
Was up and running in a Hyper-V VM in about 30 minutes start to finish.

Awesome work!

Does anyone have any suggestions as to where I can look to try to troubleshoot this further?

So, I did a wireshark on the server while attempting to connect. I can see all the login server packets on udp 5999 go through fine, and then the conversation switches to udp 9000 and seems to go fine until I start to see some port unreachable ICMP messages on udp 9000 start to appear. These show up at the same time that (observationally anyway) the UF client dumps me back to the login screen.

This probably does not shed much light as this is probably what one would expect to see at the packet level when a disconnect occurs between server and client.

Default Installed Fresh VM 5.0 and Win 7 64 bit with bots

Worked perfect! Thanks a ton for this!

I set up the VM session for 4gig ram. Has anyone tried using 2gig? How much ram should I set aside?

This discovered when installing.

After installing bots you must capitalize the first letter in a bots name or it was say invalid name. Bots work awesome!

Script executed with no errors and it was just shy of awesome for the install!!!

Played for 6 hours without any issues!

Total install was 30 min.

Are you sure you are not trying to install it in a 32 bit windows environment?

Not sure what ya mean can you explain a bit? The client to use is Titanium edit right?, I cant even get it to load to play as normal let alone get it to switch over to the private. the server does look like its ok just the 2 little errors at start after I changed the listen port it was ok. also I'm trying to get this to work as a lan server for my kids, any help would be helpful.

Should read before attempting stuff.

This has been the same process for 10+ years.

But create a shortcut on your desktop, then add patchme to the targetline
