At any place or where the game is situate??? My question is as follows:
I followed the tutorial.
I forwarded two ports 19567 and 48888 also. (I am not sure if this was needed).
And I ran the server, and it is running apparently.
But how to join my own server? It is not in servers list..
Can I run server and game both on same pc?

Yes, you can run your game and server on the same PC, in fact, that's what I did for my videos. To be able to see your server, you also need to put the dinput8 (latest) in the server files directory and if you cant see it, others wont either.

Thanks for your reply but others are seeing and joining it.
Later I found that although it was not in server browser but I can find it there by "searching by name".
Now I can join my server. Thanks.

you can use ProCon as administration tool, as long as all servers are connected to it you can share the banlist across them.

Also you could just create one banfile and just symlink it for the other servers.
There used to be a signature here.

Firstly Thank you for reply, but I wanna know how to do it with B3 :)

Also what paremeters should I use for diffrent config files. Because changing this --> "-serverInstancePath "Instance/"" cause separate ban list problem.

Would that not cause a issue of both files were being written to at the same time, as if Server 1 'saved' the file when Sever 2 was actively read/writing it When server 2 finished and saved it it would overwrite Server 1's change... no?

I believe with B3 all bans are stored in a Mysql or Sqlite database, i wrote a plugin a while back that synced the bans to a separate database so as to keel things organised, don't know where its at now tho... however you could also alternatively set the databases for all the servers to the same Database.


Most of my knowledge from B3 comes from FD1 so i may be incorrect, someone verify?
