Okay I’ll give it a go! Here are some settings that are a little more copy-paste friendly but you still have to replace the IP Address for the client player.
Did you set up port forwarding (for port 57093) on your router?
If you don’t configure that the client won’t be able to connect through your router’s firewall. It’s a process but pretty easy once you know what you’re doing and important for hosting any game. Unfortunately there’s a million and one different routers so you’ll have to find the instructions for the one you own to learn how to do it.
RivingtonDown is correct if you are connecting to a computer outside of your local area network. But if you’re just on the same network use the local ip address.
Anymore luck with this? I want to make a server where I can host a roleplay/build/adventure location for several players. Is this possible? How many players? Thanks.
Hey Mikey, what is the issue you’re seeing? The example you replied to is supposed to be copied into the user_settings.json. The host ip goes here needs to be replaced with the IP address of the host.
An example user settings file for the host might look like this if you copied your user id in:
The user_settings.json file sits in your steam directory, which is C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Stonehearth for me, but could be wherever your library is. You can follow this guide to find your game files: Steam Community :: Guide :: How to access game files
@ayazar hi, thx for this guide but… how to join a multiplayer game without using Steam, and so the Steam Friend List ?? If the tricks is to simply launch the game on Client, the answer is “connection lost”.
Besides, no mods without Steam (neither ACE). Is there an other way to force LAN connection ?
