Thank you for helping a noob out, theres a lot i’ve got to learn about server-side gaming… if you had an internetz button, i’d give you an internet. settle for a hug?

Port 2302 is open…though it (shouldn’t) make much difference due to it being a Lan-Only set up which I would run it on. (anyone external to my lan has Hamachi)

I havn’t patched anything yet. I didn’t know a patch would be required. if you could point me in the right direction, i will install said patch.

not a lot of difference (if any). same link for the picture

IPV6 is disabled.

No, I’m not trying to run FLHook.

website is giving me this:
Errors Returned While Uploading file : freelancer server.JPG
Suspicious image upload refused

uploading to own file sharing application.

Okay, I’ve got a Hamachi network running for a Freelancer server (So I can play FL with a few good friends of mine who are already in the network).

I’ve installed freelancer and No-CD cracked it. Launched FLServer from the start menu (of windows 7 x64), entered the details it wanted, and i get this screen, of which has NO animation other than the “……loading…” bar marqueeing in its box under Server Name. (screenshot added). any ideas? This is a STOCK install.
