Nick Rushton Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 me and my brother are wanting to play the new tekkit through multiplayer...but i cant remember anything about making a server, i used to have several functioning servers like 2 years ago but i cant remember how to do anything. we are only wanting to play through localhost, but i can connect but he cant. can someone help me? (i know you guys can ) also, i used to also have a server where i would just google "whats my ip" then take that ip and put it into the server ip, how do i make that again? sorry for being crap :( Quote
thelightedDarkness Posted June 9, 2013 Posted June 9, 2013 The ip YOU connect to (if it's your computer hosting) is your private IP. Then you have the googled one for your friends and such. Because if you tried connecting with that ip, it wouldn't work. (at least that's how it works for me, dunno if it's the same. Sorry, I'm stupid. lol) Also, there's tons of tutorials on creating a tekkit server on youtube. And I mean tons. ipchicken.com also works with your external ip. Quote
ElPolloPicante Posted June 30, 2013 Posted June 30, 2013 Get a server host, they'll probably do a good portion of the setup for you, depending on who you go with. Quote
planetguy Posted July 2, 2013 Posted July 2, 2013 In Linux and maybe Mac OS, type ifconfig into the console, on Windows ipconfig. One of the devices should show your local IP address, which your brother can connect to. Quote
