Gaming Mode and UPNP support now disabled. i found them and disabled them i remembered where they were on the router. testing now.

the server is the only thing on the router. my gamer rig is not located at that address anymore. i moved :P but i remote admin it. and when it was there.... i would only have one "Virtual Server" profile using 10308 pointing to the server. same as it is still.

Dear Scorpion. i'm not pissed at ED or cOff i think they have done a wonderful job as well! and i'm not the only one having this issue. Sixmarbles who is a networking GOD has tried 3 different routers and still no dice. i am a strong supporter of ED the only thing with this thread is that i'm trying to help resolve the issue. what have you done to help with this issue? Dear Coff. i know that i have mapped the port correctly in the "Virtual Server" as 10308 why would the NAT remap it? but this really honestly seems to be Black shark only. so the next patch will hopefully take care of it...... i know how to configure a router i have hosted tons of other games no problem, no port remapping on other games. example ArmA 2 and so on. and with Lockon using the same exact port and "Virtual Server" profile to the same exact server, it works perfectly.

yea cOff the issue is still there...... my port is randomized again to a 60,000-64000 port, and now now it wont even show on the master server list.... like its blocking anything that isnt 10308....... guess we'll have to wait till next patch. :cry:

just flew for an hour and a half on my server, Marbles and I. great news so far... will check in tomorrow and then if confirmed. Death From Above will once again finally be public!!! :D

there was a minor episode of us having no ping the first try but after restarting the BS server and trying again it yes tentatively seems fixed..... testing :)

it appeared right away. i would love to run wireshark on the server the only trouble is i'm not quite sure how to use it. is wireshark free?

you definatly were not the only one Ramstein ;) i asked 2 or 3 times in the patch thread but never got an answer :( but now i know why.

Hi remember me? the annoying little gnat buzzing in your ear eagle dynamics? here is a refresher course. read up..... http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=35125&highlight=Hosting+black+shark Well guess what! even after Coff's nice words about fixing it. its not..... proof. Look at my Black Shark Server, notice the port? if you cant tell i'm a tad bit frustrated of having a server that can only have a fraction of the people it could have on it because of this issue! i'm always having to baby my freakin server all the time because of it. now how can i help to get this issue RESOLVED for sure??? I know i'm not the only one with this issue, Six Marbles and several other people have this issue. Put me on the beta team if you wish i will gladly help! since I might just be the one wanting it fixed the most and no one on ED has the issue i'm guessing, i can test fixes easily! please contact me ED this issue is the last piece to the stable black shark puzzle!

is the port randomization issue fixed? Coff said it should but i did not see it listed in the fix list.... also will we still be able to use Acedy's incredible "ServMan" toolz? :)

You are da man!!!! congrats :D

what wonderful news!!!! i really enjoyed reading what the patch will have :) one question....... will the multiplayer issue with the port randomization of servers be fixed? Coff said it would but i did not see it in the fix list. ;) http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=35125&highlight=Hosting+black+shark

LOL good ol FPS Doug!!! great mods :)

was in close formation with a squad mate of mine...... looked away for a second and looked back and my mate got shot and i biffed it right into him LMAO!!! :D

Happy Birthday X-Man :)

Wonderful Job! :D downloading!

the mumbo jumbo about certian versions being effected is proven wrong. so basically what we have concluded is its something with the port not being in the heart beat packet that is sent to the master server. and also the server application will actually change the port to a random one when no one is on the server.

in order to survive on one engine. jettison all stores like said already but if you have no airspeed when it happens you might be screwed unless you have some altitude. because if you do then dive! dive to get airspeed. the only way you can survive with one engine is to be going at least 100Kph and up, so that there is enough forward motion of the helicopter the one engine has an easier time keeping you in the air because of momentum. 9 times out of 10 i make it back when i loose an engine because i have airspeed. Or if you loose an engine when your moving fast already then just keep moving and make a slow turn back to RTB.

my server is up all the time...but I switch back and forth between lockon normaly on weekends. But I have noticed it takes a while to show up when I first start it. Like two to three mind. Don't know why.

the servers that have no problem are from server hosting companies and are not behind a router. but i have a D-Link DI-624

there has been official clarification that it is a bug..... look in my massive thread about it started many months back.... http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=35125&highlight=Hosting+black+shark

the only vital bugs i can think of for the patch would be the "Laser burn out bug" where flying for around 20 to 25 mins with the laser in standby the switch will then think its off and then turning it off then on does nothing and you have to go repair..... and then the problem a few people have with hosting where you have port translation where the master server randomizes your port even though you set it up to be 10308. thats the problem i'm having and the port randomizes every 15 mins someone is not in the server. thats why my server is passworded :( so the people that use it can remote admin it and change the port to the newly randomized one. but 2 more months isnt bad.... unless it gets delayed again.

seems it is the same issue that i am currently having...... they know about it and said they will be fixing it in the next patch... here is the link to my massive thread about it..... hopefully will be fixed in next patch.... ;) http://forums.eagle.ru/showthread.php?t=35125&highlight=Hosting+black+shark

If you want to run a dedicated server i suggest using this awesome tool :) with this it turns your machine into a dedi and you can have sub admins and everything, it automatically rotates missions and if no one is in the server it auto pauses the game and unpauses when someone connects! the coolest thing since sliced bread :P Acedy is the MAN! the server software tools are here your just not in the right spot ;) so with this linky your problems will be solved http://forums.eagle.ru/showpost.php?p=667784&postcount=1

absolutely far from it! theres no running around COD 4 style in ArmA at all PAH!!!! :D use cover, suppressive fire, flanking. ArmA 2 is a true master of sim ground combat.
