    Hello all,

    I have big problems with setup dedicated servers from my own pc.
    What have i done so far
    Opening the following ports:
    Ports_AMS.jpg
    First of all i try to host it from my Automobilista Dedicated Server install.
    Run it as administrator.
    When others try to join we have a join time out.

    After this i set one server up from my own Automobilista install with the AMS Dedicated.exe.
    Nothing change about the ports and than everything works fine.

    But that is why I start 1 server.
    When i want to start more servers only one is visible in the list from steam server list and also in the multiplayer list from game self.

    What have i done after this:

    Copy my Automobilista folder to new folder with other name.
    Changing the ports to:

    Query Port Start="34590" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Port Start="34690" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Authenticator Port="8760" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Master Server Updater Port="27010" // range is 1025 - 65535

    But no opportunity to make it work.
    What is the secret?

    I'm having the same problem. I've run dozens and dozens of individual servers off of my main computer, but now people can't join. I triple checked that all my ports are open, and they are correct.

    Indeed its a strange problem.
    No problems with other games

    When i host from my own install with these ports is going oke.

    Query Port Start="34597" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Port Start="34697" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Authenticator Port="8766" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Master Server Updater Port="27016" // range is 1025 - 65535

    When i change something its not working.
    I can simply not change the ports in the multiplayer.ini, because it doesn't work.

    You don't need to copy the entire folder of the game to another place.
    All you need is to create a copy of the Profile folder that's inside the UserData folder (it's usually called DedicatedServer if you haven't changed anything).
    For example:
    DedicatedServer1
    DedicatedServer2
    Inside each folder, the PLR file must match the profile folder name.
    When you start the AMS Dedicated.exe you will be able to select it from the combo !

    Another thing is that you need to open the sequential ports of the 34747 (34748 and so on).
    It's used as well and if you don't, the others won't show on the MP list !

    Are you sure you set sequential ports on each Multiplayer.ini file of each profile folder ?

    Profile 1:
    Query Port Start="34597" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Port Start="34697" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Authenticator Port="8766" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Master Server Updater Port="27016" // range is 1025 - 65535

    Profile 2:
    Query Port Start="34598" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Port Start="34698" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Authenticator Port="8767" // range is 1025 - 65535
    Master Server Updater Port="27017" // range is 1025 - 65535

    And selected different profile on the combo of the tool at the start ?
