Nevermind, I installed Hamachi and it works now. I actually did not really want to use third party tools, but seems like I did not have a choice...

No ideas? It would already help tremendously if I got narrow it down to being either a problem of the game/server/settings/whatever or the router/ports... Thanks in advance.

I forwarded 8766 UDP as well and changed the settings in servertest.ini. It is still not working...

I did a restart and tried again, still not working. Here are the contents of the .txt files: While the cmd window for the Server was loading up I noticed "Router detection/configuration starting. If the server hangs here, set UPnP=false. No UPnP-enabled Internet gateway found, you must configure port forwarding on your gateway manually in order to make your server accessible from the Internet." My Router is a piece of shit, but I am absolute sure that I did all that I can to enable the ports... to be safe I also opened them in the Windows Firewall settings.

Hi, I am experiencing the exact same problem. Background: I recently bought a 2nd copy of PZ to play co-op with my girlfriend and I just can't get it to work... it's driving me insane! First of all: I don't use the Steam version (I bought the game off of GOG.com) Here's what I did so far: - Forwarded ports UDP 16261 and TCP 16261-16262 - Started ProjectZomboidServer.bat - Started the Game (even did a fresh reinstall!) and clicked on Host, did not change anything and clicked on Start right away... the result is "Server Has Stopped During Launch (NormalTermination)". I tried a restart and then launching a 0.75GB Server (the default was 1GB)... same result. Here are the contents of the .txt files: Please help...
