Well, Ive been trying to get a server running for my game for a long time now. I stopped once so that I could work on other things, but now I am ready to come at it again. If I could transfer information correctly and successfully, then I would feel ready to begin programming a basic client app, but until then I don''t want to waste my time.
I am using a linksys router with cable access to the internet.
Firstly, I have a no-ip.com client running on my computer
that updates my external Ip address to a hostname (tictacjo.servegame.com).
I wrote a simple program using Non-Blocking sockets to send and recieve information over port 7654. (Random, to my knowledge).
I believe I have to set up some sort of port forwarding mechanism, as I have multiple computers on my network (the linksys router).
I would be greatly relieved if anyone could help me.
