Can't load after connection request accepted

[PDizzle418]

Hello,

 

I'm hosting a server and trying to play with two friends. One friend can connect and play, no problem, the other, when trying to connect gets connection request accepted and then nothing. It doesn't load anything else.

 

He can play his own game and join public servers without issue but can't join mine. We aren't using a client such as hamachi.

 

Things we've tried:

-Changing ports

-I've forwarded at least 10-15 ports to no avail

-Reinstalling both our games

-Completely trashing the server and trying again

-Running his game as Admin

 

He can ping my IP without issue, we can play other games that I host, no problem (starbound, risk of rain are two recent that come to mind)

 

I'm stumped by it any ideas?

 

Thanks guys

When you say you have 10-15 ports, are they sequental (or a range), such as 16261 - 16270? And it's UDP/TCP? Just want to make sure.

Otherwise, we'll probably have to see the results of trying to connect from the console, for both your server and his client. A screenshot of each would do.

Regarding the ports you have open, can you just double check that there's at least 4 consecutive ports open (4 in a row, not random) and that they're open for both TCP and UDP.

 

Out of curiosity, have you tried having him connect while your other friend who can connect isn't on the server?

 

And have you tried to do a whitelist at any point for the server? If not might be worth taking it down.

 

If you could send us pics of both the client and the server consoles it might help as well.

Hey Rathlord thank you for replying,

 

In regards to your questions:

I have ports 16260-16290 forwarded as both TCP and UDP, both of my friends do as well

I hadn't tried whitelisting until my friend was struggling so we started without one, he is whitelisted. However the server logs aren't showing him as unable to join. The logs say he is allowed to join

 

Here's the Server Console:

Here's my friends console in pic and from console.txt:

Whelp, I can honestly say I have no idea what's going wrong here. Gonna do some more digging and hopefully get with one of the devs about it. Sorry that you're having trouble; I appreciate your patience.
