Hello all,
Today I've tried numerous times to connect to my own dedicated server. As far as I can tell, everything within launch options is set up correctly, port forwarding is active(though I have it set to 'both' for 2302 and 27600, versus just TCP or UDP only), and the server window starts correctly, though stops at Steam policy response. I assume that's normal, as the server shows up in the Community tab in the server browser just fine(I also disabled the console logs, due to space). However, whenever I attempt to connect to it, it almost immediately spits back a 'Connection failed' message. Both the server version and game version are .63.149386, and in Steam the experimental version is checked. I couuldn't get it to work with either, with the experimental active or not.
Using the desktop shortcut and starting the server from Steam both do this. Whenever I manually use the 'DayZServer_x64.exe' located inside the steamapps>common>DayZServer folder, I get only this:
Start via 'DayZServer_x64.exe' example
Desktop OR Start from Steam example:
The launch options for 'DayZ Server' in Steam are: - -config=serverDZ.cfg -port=2302,27600
I'm kind of at a loss here, I've exhausted Google and everyone else seems to get it to work just fine, but I am stuck. Any all all help is appreciated.
