You can't use the local IP (127.0.0.1) in ProCon, to solve the problem, you should use your internal IP or external IP, for your case, try 192.168.1.2
Edit: Little mistake made, sorry for that ;)

Hm, not sure, but if it *actively refuses* it, maybe there's a firewall?

my firewall is turned off..
i will try and add the exceptions in the Outgoing rules. and check if it will work out

//Edit

instead of running ~Start Server.bat i runned Frost.Game.Main_Win32_Final.exe
