thats a good idea too! now though that woudlnt show up under the gls? as i want to arrect people from the GLS and have a way of manualling connecting to the server.

I dont really want people to run into issues trying to connect to the server via the gls due to the ip changing etc etc. But the no ip i know of and have used for other games aka WoW. i just wasnt sure if it would work for freelancer when im not sure about things i will usally post up and ask.

but having a dynmamic ip could cause issues to remote connect with the server too? As my friend will be hosting the server ill most likely be managing it via remote connection

Meny thanks

Yeah same would happen if he were to restart his pc. I really hate it when isps give people dynamic ips. The only problem i see is would the GLS notice the new ip straight away? or would there be a delay for it to update the list. as i pretty much dont want to run into problems with people not being able to connect.

Hey guys.

got something to ask can i host a freelancer server on a dynamic ip?

The reason for this is that a friend is willing to host our server as he has a really powerfull server machne doing nothing atm. now the problem is he has a Dynamic ip adress. He went to his isp and talked to them but they refused to give him a Static ip. They will only give him one if he rents a business connection. Funny thing is that we both have the same connections 20 mb each but ones up the other side of the country. And i have a Static ip address and he dosnt were both using the same isps and connections he even mentioned this to them and they still refused him. Seems a little unfair if i have a static ip but he hasnt...

Anyway the reason im asking this is to see if theres a way to run a server on a dynamic ip without running into problems as this server is public not private.

Cheers

Sri demise( A very good video you will have to watch it on xfire due to youtube removing the audio)

Were mostly looking for a mod that includes captial ships flyable by players. as most of our members like alot of ships from diffrent sci fi series its a hard choice for us to make.
any ideas put forth would be nice.

Hello.

all of us over at www.aurora-freelancer.com are looking for other mods to host other than tng. We would be willing to host a mod for a modder or such. We just cant get our minds round what mod to host.

If theres a modder out there who is looking for ways to host his mod then we might be on offer to help if we get on well and if we like the mod.

your all welcome to pm me on here or reply here.

I noticed that there arnt as meny forums posts lately. some forum posts are more than a few days old or weeks/months.

Seems such a shame. maybe Freelancer is losing members rapidly it seems thus meaning starport becomes less active. Ill blame it on that dam sto game.
