cannot join games

[ANDUASSASSIN]

I have tried everything to fix my problem of joining my friends but nothing worked.

- oppened all the ports related to the game and multiplayer
- tried using a vpn
- disabled firewall and antivirus
- reinstalled the game for like 74 times
- replaced some files and got another error: instead of cancelled connection attempt to could not connect to friends server or smthing like that
- restarting laptop
- i cannot change the router settings as i am connected to a public one
- used my phones hotspot
- verify files integrity

a year ago i remember playing with another friend and it worked flawless and now some friend bought it recently and now the game doesn't work.
they can connect to each other but i can not connect to them and vice versa.

I ran out of troubleshooting this game and it makes me cry :/

please help

Me too, we're trying to play but we can't join the server :/ the word "Connecting..." appears and then disappears but nothing happens.

you need to open the ports in windows firewall=stupid microsoft blocks port forwarded router=CANCER CONNECT ATTEMPT
do not disable firewall and do not disable AVAST or it wont work xd

https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2976389134
It's the only fix that works=I made it myself like 10 years ago n it still working and it works on every single pc and router i try it on=even if its missing from the router instruction manual it still works
Static ipv4 address required=only a fool pays for a static ip=free in windows network n sharing centre
google whats my ip doesn't work=never has=use private static ip

have fun and happy reading cuz that is the only fix that works=only have to do it once on the host pc while clients who join ya server have to do it too=welcome to unreal engine 3 n ya don't need a vpn either=left mouse to host and join servers through STEAM

do not change the tcp net driver line in ini file or fix wont work cuz nothing here or on the internet works at all=only my fix works cuz i fixed it myself cuz even the devs instructions don't work at all=
same as fixing minecraft=LOL

fix also works on isp locked routers=i have an isp locked router xd n everything works nice

[A JANITOR]

public router n ya disabled ya av and ya firewall=good lord ya pc is a walking virus now lol windows defender has yet to detect it's 1st virus since windows xp
get decent av
like dude be super careful connecting to a public router xd
windows firewall open the ports for ya if ya can't change router settings but never disable firewall or ya av software

hope ya av isn not macaffe=thats malware n so is semantec n so is nortan=crapware
hamachi is a virus too

avast is good=ignore the ads and never pay em=free is better than pro
roguekiller n malwarebytes=those actually work=free too

windows defender=useless garbage
if you spent more than $0 fixing it=ya got scammed=do not pay for anything=fix is free

already did what u said and followed all your instructions even tho that ss seems kinda old and there are no links or tutorials to it but fairly easy to understand. now what i did didn t work and i think it may be because of the nat type that can affect these games, being compared to xbox multiplayer games , that require to have a moderated nat type. now i think that i have a double nat because my internet is public bc student dorm room and i do not have any access to the router settings. if u want and can personally help me please do. thx

btw here is an award for helping people out and keeping the comunity informed <3

Hello?

[A JANITOR]

the only thing that can help is that screenshot=read all the links in the comments=
i am not writing the same massive book for the 2678th time xd

dormitory router=where do they keep it=look on the back of it take a photo
if teacher stupid the password is admin or as what it says the password is on the back of the router
login and add the ports (with any luck they never turn it off so it wont stop working every time it gets rebooted)
a dynamic ip changes (the ip you put in the router forwarding rules does not change=port forward stops working every single time ya reboot pc or router=both of em cuz they both change and almost every router doesn't support nat traversal but the login ip always the same=usually it's 10.1.1.1 on most router models and enter password on the sticker on the back of the router to login from a web browser then add ip to the forwarding rules and your static ip=teacher may or may not catch ya but teacher dumb if ya lucky?

if ya lucky this work instead of using da router but i had to do both router and firewall to get this game working vs monkey see monkey do=
https://youtu.be/5iRp1Nug0PU?si=FkHr6-reGyCrACsh
https://youtu.be/9llH5_CON-Y?si=RC2Q-oIr14LunObG

add the games ports to windows firewall both inbound and outbound rules for tcp and udp

inbound rules=
7777..........tcp and udp= 2 x rules 1 for tcp and 1 for udp=steam 1 and steam 2 etc
7778.....steam 1 udp....steam 2 tcp
27015.....vcd 1 udp....vcd 2 tcp
27016....vcd 3 udp...vcd 4 tcp
outbound rules=
7777..........tcp and udp= 2 x rules 1 for tcp and 1 for udp=steam 1 and steam 2 etc
7778.....steam 1 udp....steam 2 tcp
27015.....vcd 1 udp....vcd 2 tcp
27016....vcd 3 udp...vcd 4 tcp

if it doesn't let ya add em n says cant have 2 of same one=change its name=
27016....vcd 4 udp...vcd 5 tcp

now there is 8 new forwarding rules in windows firewall inbound rules and another 8 rules in the outbound rules for tcp and udp=ya tick the box to enable connection but some stupid idiot at microsoft set everything in ya firewall to block connection vs=WINDOWS UPDATE so ya gotta find steam.exe and unblock steam and everything that has the games name in it udk.exe and built with udk and everything with viscera in its name is set to block connection=set it to enabled and tick box allow connection to unblock it n with any luck then ya don't have to login to the teachers router cuz if ya add the steam remote play ports while ya in the firewall rules you don't have to add those to the router to fix steam remote play not working too then ya can play VCD on ya phone the same way i play this ue5 game on my phone with the steam link mobile app too cuz microsoft fked it up too=

Remote Play uses the following ports:

UDP ports 27031 and 27036.
TCP ports 27036 and 27037.
For VR Streaming, UDP ports 10400 and 10401.
add those ports to inbound and outbound firewall rules in windows firewall to fix steam remote play not working too=

n you can host a game from your phone in rsplitscreen coop and use remote play together to invits friends instead of playing fullscreen coop but yeah pc needs a static ip or it stops working every single time ya reboot ya pc or the router/trn it off n back on=static ip never changes=works forever as per instructions on port forward dot com website that says all ue3 games need port forwarding and if ya test the ports online it broken=test ports with free program=simple port forwarding=its the only thing on the planet that actually has a port tester that works n its free

my dyslexic writing ain't gonna get any better=look at the how to fix it screenshot=look at all the comments and links=with any luck windows firewall lets ya in without port forwarding the teachers router otherwise ya out of luck without admin access

that or ask teacher to add ports so ya can play at lunch n recess=then ya wont get in trouble for logging into the teachers router?
with any luck you don't have to login
add ports to your firewall n turn it on/enable em=
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=728500402
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2706224583
then play game

it is the same as setting up minecraft:)

so yeah now everyone knows the root cause of CANCER CONNECT ATTEMPT=WINDOWS UPDATE SET IT TO BLOCK CONNECTION IN DEC 2015 and by default it set to block connection on any pc esp if ya reinstall windows it sets it to block connection=cancer connect attempt
hence why everyone comes here to complain that it broken=not the devs fault that microsoft break everything they touch=

make static ipv4 adreess in etwork and sharing centre ipv4 adaptor properties to get a free static ip address=use that ip in ya router if ya can login to it and add the ports to ya firewall unblock udk.exe steam.exe to fix steam server browser for every game and unblock everything with viscera and built with udk in its name.

now host a game with no password=public game=now anyone can join but whoever joins ya has to fix it on thier end too otherwise windows firewall blocks the connection when they try n join cuz thats why it not working ya gotta unblock it xd

lol if teacher says yes and does add the ports to the dorm router=
copy the game to a usb stick n install game on every pc in computer room classroom n play a lan game with the entire class= the game supports 32 players in 1 server:)
also game has steam workshop=does teacher have a UDK class=ask teacher to do a class on making a vcd steam workshop map to teach ya UDK
then teacher no choice to add the ports to the dorm router:)


used to do that with doom at school years ago but i been over 20 years since i went to school n the pc room was ancient history n dot matrix printer take 6 hours to print 2 pages of homework so teacher let ya play postal too while ya wait for printer to print=
https://youtu.be/-DliPvDXT-E?si=BgafJS6j5wR9P3ax
while back then steam didn't exist and neither did youtube while installing games with like 8 floppy disks on school computers was painfully slow but could play games at lunch or recess instead of doing ya homework while it take teacher 6 months to delete the games off the school computers xd:)


the game is the same as setting up a minecraft server=good luck
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2976389134
and happy reading cuz once it fixed it stays fixed=STATIC IPV4 and port forwarding is required to play coop

you also have to set both the 32 and 64 bit udk.exe file in the games 32 and 64 bit binaries folders to run as admin compatibility mode for windows 7
fix ya firewall n lol never turn it off n if av blocks it whitelist it in av software
avast automatic whitelists the game
norton=pc is a useless brick that blocks everything in ya steam library=have fun nerfing norton

look at devs faq page=
nvidia experience and a few other programs can stop it from working too
so can medical rust steam workshop map=incorrect radio setup=plays 2 csgo songs on every radio in every level so if both host and client dont have it installed then every map chuck cancer connect attempt=all sub or all unsub to medical rust to stop that map from breaking mp in every level


play 64 bit game
microsoft borked the 32 bit game in dec 2015 too cuz windows updates screwed it royally

fix is free=$0 so if ya pay anything to fix it then ya got scammed cuz the fix i posted is the only fix that works
same fix will fix arma 3 cuz i used an arma 3 firewall fix to fix vcd over 10 years ago=
swap arma 3 file names for vcd file names=visa versa to fix mp in both UE3 games:)
i been through 6 new pc's and at least 8 new routers=different isp's and it works on any device i try it on n it fixed it for all of my steam freinds=don't be sad if i ignore invites=testing stuff for other devs=secret beta's etc=not vcd2 it other unreleased games so i not adding anyone to my steam in respect for those cool devs as all my friends are devs:)


fixing vcd mp is same as fixing minecraft mp cuz microsoft broke that too

64 bit mp works fine=happy mopping


vcd is ue3
vcd2 will be ue5=then none of us will have to do any of that bull to host n join servers

still not working=call microsoft n say many swear words=idiots tell ya to pay for windows twice n if ya reinstall windows its broken again=then ya have to read my book again to fix it again on the host pc and the client/s pc/s=ahhhhhhhhhhhhh


also with direct connect google whats my ip doesn't work it never worked
so say ya set ya static ip as 192.168.1.8
host a server
give that to ya friend in steam chat n make em put that in the direct connect box n tell em to hit the join button=BINGO


nobody to join ya server=developer test mode=
(i use this to test multiplayer in the steam workshop maps i make xd)

you can also host a server and join yourself now that ya fixed the broken firewall rules=
start vcd from the steam play button=64 bit vcd
host a server
alt tab out of the game
go find the 64 bit udk.exe file n start that=now 2 instances of vcd is running
put your static ip in the direct connect box n press join=voilla you joined yourself
now ya alt tab to swap players=
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2369383115
get all the achievements exept for pass the torch but to get pass the torch ya need a mobile phone and the steam link app so you can host the game on ya phone join jourself from the pc then you can get pass the torch cuz the touch screen on ya phone works=can use steam input to setup custom touch screen controls if you dont have a gamepad like an xbox or playstation controller to connect via otg adaptor or bluetooth to ya phone if its a wireless controller like ps4 xbox one series s x ps5 etc works in steam link too for fullscreen online multiplayer

and to stop every controller controlling same players in splitscreen local coop ya need to split the keyboard and mouse sharing in steam chat there a controller icon under ya friends name while doing remote play together in splitscreen coop so click that n split it to fix that bug then you can play online coop in splitscreen coop in remote play together and unlike fullscreen coop splitscreen=only the host has to own the game=all steam friends who didn't buy vcd join for free without installing vcd at all

devs ay ya need 2 xbox controllers=with steam link any controller works now it lets ya mix controller brands

but hey you don't need direct connect once it's fixed=left mouse to host and join while only fools share personal details with strangers=never share those details online ya don't wanna DOX yourself

not devs fault and there ain't nothing devs can do to fix it cuz it's not broken=

microsoft broke it
have fun with windows firewall n don't turn it off otherwise it wont work
fix works on win 7 8 8.1 10 and 11=been there done that=works like a charm=
https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2706227807
happy multiplayer.....

if ya on a mac=the mac version of vcd sux=only direct connect works on a mac=no steam workshop maps and no steam achievements on mac vcd

windows vcd fix is for=headache tablets not included after reading my janky spelling lol but it works and it the only way to fix it cuz the devs instructions don't work at all cuz microsoft broke those too

windows firewall
router too if ya can
then it works
