Unable to host on WC3 - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

zxello · 08-18-2007, 10:16 PM

Hey all, I used to be able to host games on Warcraft 3 just fine. For some reason I can't anymore, I thought it was my computer being corrupted, so I reformatted my computer, no fix.

Thought it might be my router, reset it and reconfigured. I'm able to host just fine with my XBOX 360... pretty sure its not that.

I need some help peeps. I can't figure it out. I port-forwarded my router, I've forwarded my software firewall. I've turned off my firewall... still nothin.

I might be a little late to reply but I hope this helps.

Warcraft III:

* Allow port 6112 TCP out and allow established sessions in
* Allow port 6112 TCP in (hosting custom games)
* Allow port 6113-6119 TCP out and in (hosting custom games if you’ve changed the default port in the Options/Gameplay screen)

Routers and Warcraft III:

1. Make sure you have the latest updates installed from your Router manufacturer.
2. Configure the Game Port Warcraft III will use on each computer:
1. Start Warcraft III on each computer
2. Click Options
3. Click Gameplay
4. Approximately half way down the screen you will see Game Port, each of your computers will need to use a different port
Example: Computer #1 can use port 6112, computer #2 can use port 6113, computer #3 can use port 6114, and so on.
3. Configure your Router to forward the incoming data for port x to the computer where you setup Warcraft III to use that port
For more information on configuring your router, please contact your router manufacturer.
4. Try playing the game

It's equally as stupid but at least it looks really long. I'm probably just going to keep typing until I run out of things to babble about and see how many people actually read this. I once ran down a hill, fell down and hurt my elbow; my mom said I would be ok, she kissed it and made it all better. I've run out of things to say now, so if you have read this whole thing, congratulations you get a gold star!
