Guide

Prerequisites
64-bit Windows
Steam client
SteamCMD

Install
  • Install SteamCMD on your host.
  • Launch SteamCMD on your host and use it to download the server files.(Remove the < > and replace them with double quotes, for example, force_install_dir "C:\NOTDServer")
    (app id : 1420710)

  • Steam> login anonymous
  • Steam> force_install_dir <install_dir>
  • Steam> app_update 1420710 validate
  • Steam> exit

Port
We basically use the two ports below.
UDP 27015 : Game query port
UDP 7777 : Game client port

Set the ports as an exception in the firewall.
Open these ports through Port-Forwarding.

If you would like to change the port you are using, the next step will explain how to change the port.

Host
  1. In the installed folder, open "ServerSettings.ini" to edit as desired.
    Please change the default in each section to the desired value.
    for example :
    [ServerSettings]
    ServerName=MyServerName
    [SystemSettings]
    SaveName=MySave
    [GameSettings]
    Difficulty=Legend
    NoTeamKill=True

  2. Run StartServer.bat
    a. (Optional) If you want, you can edit StartServer.bat to change which port you use.(for example : LF\Binaries\Win64\LFServer.exe ?listen -log -Port=7779 -QueryPort=27016)

  3. Save file location : <install_dir>\LF\Saved\SaveGames
    You can save and load the save file by matching SaveName (in [SystemSettings]) and the save in the above location.

Play
  1. Join to the dedicated server session requires same version of the server and client.

Can you send a tutorial video

Alright, so this guide works but you have to make sure under "Host"-->"2. Run StartServer.bat" that your file has the ports that you port forwarded. For example: "LF\Binaries\Win64\LFServer.exe ?listen -log -Port=7777 -QueryPort=27015"
