Listen server IP -
04-03-2004
Hello,
I've been trying to host a CS 1.6 listen server through Steam so that people could join over the internet. The problem is, when I start the server via the usual 'New Game' option, the server is registered with my LAN IP address rather than the IP address I get at, say, whatismyip.com, or even a Steam-specific IP.
My question is, how would I go about starting a listen server with a normal IP address (i.e. 68.110.119.217:27015) rather than my LAN IP (192.168.1.100)? I've tried various methods to remedy the problem, but none have seemed to work. The first thing I did was go to whatismyip.com, where I was told my IP is 68.110.119.217. I then went into the Counter-Strike Launch Options and added the command +ip 68.110.119.217. That did essentially nothing, and even prevented me from joining the server via my LAN IP.
Anyway, does anyone know a way around this? It'll be a real shame if I can't get it to work, since I've already got MetaMod, AMX, and even PMB's PODBot currently running on my server. I'd really appreciate any help.
Thanks
