RO2 How to connect to local server?

[LordGleedo]

Hello,

I am trying to run my pc as a local server to test a mod I'm messing around with so I don't have to keep uploading it to my rented server.

So I have a batch file that creates my server for me and that appears to work ok.

Next I am trying to connect to that server by the following command line:
rogame.exe 127.0.0.1 -log

I keep seeing a message 'Missing editor token in sdk' and then rogame.exe crashes.

Is it possible to connect to a local server? Any help appreciated.

Ahh, i can see it in my 'Lan' tab in the server browser, but it's not connecting for some reason....will try and work it out.

It is possible, in fact it's how I test the IOM.

The way I do it is I run a batch file to launch the server (just like you.)

Then I open the game (usually in windowed mode, with -log in the Steam launch options.) Once I'm at the menu I open the console with ` and type

open 127.0.0.1

and since I'm always using that I use the arrow keys to scroll through the command history to select it. If you can't connect you may need to look around in your server's ROGame.ini for anything that looks suspicious.

I just tried connecting client using "open " etc and it still won't connect.

My server log shows two lines when i try to connect:

[0086.61] NetComeGo: Open TheWorld 02/23/14 08:46:41 127.0.0.1
[0086.75] Log: UDP recvfrom error: 10040 (SE_EMSGSIZE) from 127.0.0.1:54102

The first line is expected, the second is not lol. I need to do some investigation

Try it with disabled firewall and anti-virus. They sometimes are the cause of these problems. Also check your Windows hosts file. Some software do add lines in there that break using localhost. It can be found in:
C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
(of course it depends where you did install Windows).
There should be no line in there that contains localhost or 127.0.0.1. If it does, then precede it with a #.

Thanks for the reply Ducky but still no joy.

Doesn't really matter, i'll just keep on using my dedi.

Did you configure the server to be a LAN server?

bLANServer=true

I don't really know, I think so. In webadmin you can choose that in General Settings / Server Information tab:

Server Type
Internet Server | LAN Server

So I guess it is the same, but on LAN

Thanks for the help.

I did set it to lan but I still get that same UDP error from post #4.

I expect it's a windows 7 / environment setup problem with my machine rather than a problem with the game server tbh.

Will keep digging and post back a solution if I ever find one
