Well as noone is responding in the Team Fortress 2 forum, and hosting team fortress 2 servers is similar to garrys mod, could someone help me?
I've been trying to host a server for a while now. And I keep getting this problem, I'm able to host it, I'm able to join it. Yet, the flaw is, my friends can't see the server (give them a "Server is not responding.") message. Yet some people managed to join my server.. I tried it with another account, also the same message for me.
It seems alot of people have this problem, yet I haven't found a solution. Is there anyone more advanced on this subject?
I'll post some information about my setup/configuration.

And ofcourse I have forwarded my ports, and I have a static IP.. I know it's called Gmod Server in the screenshot, but the name doesn't really matter, does it?

Anyway, I hope you guys can help me, cause I don't know what's wrong with this setup.
Thanks in advance.
What I hate about it is that you have to Favorite your server
but you have to enter the IP and Port of your server, try joining from there now

No, it's fine. People can connect manually to my server, it just doesn't show up in the internet tab, and it shows "Server not responding" with the lan ip to them.
Sorry, you need to Log In to post a reply to this thread.
