Cant see my server - regular problem

I run a discord group and run our variouys sessions on a dedicated server based in Germany
The sessions are created using Justrace.

So for instance I have two servers running at the moment:


However I quite often have to refresh the lobby several times before I can eventually see them and then sometimes I can only see one of them.

I have just done a refresh and yet again not there.


AS you canb imagine this is now starting to hack me off and I am hoping someone here can throw some light as to why I am having this repeating problem

 

Ok so finally after much tenacity I can see them but a pal cant. I have heard that this is a common problerm??

 

Did not try to restart the game, just kept refreshing. Are you suggesting that's what I need to do?

 

OK, will do a test and report back

 

For what it's worth, we rent a server from Emperor & almost every time I restart the server & go to the lobby we can't see it as well, restarting the game works sometimes & when restarting the game does not work, I then restart the server and that also sometimes works! I have gotten used to it so before our events I go through these processes until we finally see the server. I also have noticed if a length of time passes, example: if I don't see the server after restarting & just go away for a few hours when I come back it's there . gota' love networking (we used to see the same with PC2 but as of late PC2 seems to be acting normally & yes I probably just cursed it ) ..
Let us know if we can help in any way with logs or anything devs might need to help with this mystery.. simracingonline.co.uk

 

Ok just been into the AMS2 lobby, I have two sessions going and I cant see either, however one of the members of my Discord channel can.

I exit the game and then restart and still no sign.

Scratching my head

 

Saddly a well known problem as already reported several times.
Here one of the latest examples: https://forum.reizastudios.com/thre...s2-lobby-screen-improved-but-not-fixed.24260/

The JR devs are tryng to isolate the cause but no luck until now.

Oh sorry it is on the beta part. Btw it was a post about the same issues and how we reproduced those several times without finding the cause.
Basically the same thing you posted here but with more tests.
We posted about it hoping @Dave Stephenson can give a look soon or later

 

Thanks, J Turn also posted a link which I was unable to access when I was chatting to him in Discord

 

Just thinking about my AMS2 problem and not being able to either my OLDERIVE lobbies. Could I have done something in my router port forwarding to screw things up. ie an open port pointing to a wrong PC? Just to clarify I am not using any home PCs for dedi now but did in the past

 

This also happened a lot in PC2's early days. So, are you using a rented server now?
Have you tried changing your region in STEAM ? steam/settings/downloads/region this is what I had to do with PC2 when our server was in France & I'm in US, I changed my region to a euro region and was then able to see the server ..

 

We use a rented server in Germany, I am based in the UK

 

As a test it might be worth a try, as you can't see the server now anyway, Maybe just change to another city?
IDK, but ever since the last patch online play has suffered for us, we have players getting disconnected when we go from ready up to race and/or having long pauses = crashes. We have not seen these type issues for over a year until the last update. we are also on a rented server from Emperor & it's been rock solid (As a multi sim community we have multiple sims hosted by Emperor that are still running solid)

 

It's just very frustrating even more so when you hear about new cars and track and wonder do they leave any time to sort out existing problems.

To be honest I am currently doing a AC championship through a group who use Emperor and we have been having lag and warping problems

 

Well I disabled all my port forwarding and I am have better success seeing my lobies now.

Fingers crossed it stays that way

 

Huh, thought it too good to be true

I am starting to get very hacked oiff with this game due to this bug and others.

So today joined my server, joined then exited so I could try a diferent car and not matter how many times I refresh I can no longer see it in the lobby WTF!!!! Its still listed in JustRace grrr

It would be nice if someone from REIZA would respond as it been highlighted as a problem by a number of well known AMS2 users

Ya, I feel your pain For me I have found that simply refreshing does not work all the time. If I refresh like 3-4 times & don't see it I exit & restart the game. I have also had to restart the server if the game restart fails but restarting the game seems to work for me when refresh doesn't work..
