Kpopp brought the drama? I am a fan of hers and I don't know the whole story--- but I've never known her to actively try to "troll". Her statement on FreeSo says she got threatening messages from people here. That's too bad. I had come to test out Patrick's server after I saw her video, but I...
I'm not terribly technical, I wouldn't even know how to do that... I thought PortMapper was all set up. Unless someone can troubleshoot it with me, I might not have a server.
I was worried it wouldn't work. :(
EDIT: Do I have to mess with my router settings at all?
Yep, I followed instructions, I thought everything was working, but it isn't. I really wanted to play too.
My guess is there is some problem with portmapper, but everything points to it working.
Hmm.... I have portmapper running, it says I'm connected.... Anyone have any idea what could be wrong?
edit: Portmapper is giving me this. Any idea what's going on?

@Noeltarifi There is a guide on creating your own server in this forum topic. It's not too complicated, but you have to read the instructions carefully.
Sorry I missed your comment on my other thread, see that thread for when I'll have my server open.
Alright, I'm going to open the server on Saturday, The 16th, at 2PM MST.
Now, I've never done this before, so, hopefully it'll work.
If we get around 3 to 4 people, I'll leave the server open for an hour or so.
See you saturday!
Yes, I was hoping for people to come across it. I was caught up in it.
I'll schedule a test soon. I'm not sure what a good day is. Is the weekend better for people?
Hey all! I *think* I created my own server, using portmaper and NOIP.
The hostname is simsredux.ddns.net
Not quite sure exactly what to do next--- I wanted to play on a resturant lot, but it seem to be locked because my sim is not a waiter?
Anyway, as far as I know, my server is live. I'm just...
@Noeltarifi I hope FreeTime can assist you in getting the game working!
As to the recent discussion about how to notify players about server openings, I say we use Twitter unless another, better alternative comes along.
Yes, I didn't even think of that! Chrome just began rolling out that feature, desktop notifications. So, if you have chrome and twitter, (and we used it to notify about servers) people could be notified instantly.
