I can not seem to be able to find my dedicated server when it is running. I Have run it from my PC and from my wifes PC. People play on it but I can not find it either on the gamespy search or on the normal Halo search (when you start a game and go to Multiplayer). I can change the settings for the game in the console but I can not connect to my own game or even find it listed as a server anywhere! Can someon please help me figure this out?

Thanks
Eeo

yeah i can help, what the problem is, is youve gotta install the dedicated server update 1.06 thats the dedicated server update. dont get the halo 1.06 cuz its -blam!- -blam!- and it -blam!- everything up for me and now i cant play on any of my friends servers when i could b4 i got it... any ways then you set ur ini... after i got the ded. update i could locate my server... but no one else could. dont ask how to fix that 1 cuz i dunno. looks like bungie has some serious kinks to work out on this crap update... but thats just my opinion

Heyyo,

*sighs* oddball? you need to get the matching versions of server and HaloPC in order to be able to use both together... so if he gets DS v1.06 and then doesn't get HaloPC v1.06 patch, he won't be able to see it, and if the tries a direct connection it'll fail.

Yeah, dude, try this, try joining a LAN game, it should be there. If not there? get that comp's IP adress, and try a direct connect, if that fails? it should say "version is different" then you need to make sure both are the same version, and if it says "connection failiure" or something like that? then your connection to it is somehow severed...
