Hi! Hmm I don't think so because I don't really know what that means? How would I open the 16261 port? To answer your second question, I'm just trying to create a local server that a couple of friends (well..family members) can hop in and we can try survive the zombie apocolypse together ^.^ I'm not sure what dedicated mode means? I'm not starting based off an existing game file if that's what you mean - just a new world/game? Thank you so much!! Hi! Thank you for the link , but I've followed that to a T before and I still can't get it to work. It would get to a point where it would say while loading a multiplayer in the PZ UI somethin glike "Authorized with steam" to quote it loosely..but then after a while it would give me that "can't connect to p2p " thing again. *puzzled*
