how I can host Yuris Revenge server? (tried the tutorial)

[Keo]

as in the title i tried to download the windows exe file on the tutorial : 

 

But it works for few seconds then close itself.

Also current CNCnet doesn't use p2p on Yuris Revenge right? as there is no such option/command that let you pick.

Have you checked your log file that gets produced? It will be in the same location as the server exe you ran.

Did you run it as an administrator?

It's quite possible the ports are in use on modern windows.

One way you can do this is to open a administrative command prompt/powershell to the directory you saved the "cncnet-server-gui.exe" and run the server exe itself like so:

 

.\cncnet-server.exe --maxclients 200 --port 5001 --portv2 5000

 

If it runs now then you have a port issue on the main ports used by cncnet

 

With regards to p2p there is the option below:

--nop2p         (Default: false) Disable NAT traversal ports (8054, 3478 UDP)

 

However I'd recommend against turning it off as if a player cannot connect to your tunnel they will fail to connect at all compared to failing back to p2p.

To show Ping you will need to open ICMP ports on the firewall.

 

for no p2p you add that as a switch as part of the server executable  like so:

 .\cncnet-server.exe --maxclients 200 --port 5001 --portv2 5000 --no-p2p

Are you able to share the logs the server generates, should be in a file named cncnet-server.log
