Well, I can't say I'm not extremely puzzled by all this. Just so you know, I've tried and tested both using "localhost" (without the "), 127.0.0.1 AND the aforementioned somethingorother.no-ip.info in Boot5zones. With all did World and Boot5zones boot without problem or error message. But I got 1017 error on all three. Although, with localhost I got booted to start screen, on the others to server select.
I use MW055_alpha02, and the EMuShareMem.dll + Zone + World files from RexChaos I was said should work. I've followed every step to ensure that it SHOULD work, and so far I've (seemingly) eliminated these scenarios:
- There's a firewall blocking (MAYBE there's some external firewall blocking, but that's the only thing I can think of)
- I have a wrong version (of anything)
- Dynamic IP (solved with
www.no-ip.com. I'm not completely sure what of the 5 types of hosts I need, I picked DNS Host (A), if that is not the correct one please say so)
I have (to my knowledge) written everything right everywhere and have every file in the correct place. Only thing I'm really left with is some thought that it maybe (I don't know if it can even be an issue) that my mysql account/pw is the same as on these forums/my in-game account. Otherwise I'm completely blank
