FS15 Multiplayer Server Setup

Having a Farming Simulator 15 server is fun to use with your firends and others around you, with each game coming with a server tool inside the file directory and inside the games interface, here is a quick guide and tutorial on how to set it up!

In Game Server Config and Setup.

Have you ever wanted to play Farming simulator with your friends on your own server, well this is how it is done, please follow this guide and read over it as you may find what you are looking for.

1. Load Farming Simulator 15 up inside steam.
   
   
2. Select ( Multiplayer )
   
   
3. Click ( Create Server )
   
   
4. Select your current career mission to load or select a blank space to make a new one.
   
   
5. Name your Game - Name it what ever you want to, bad words and swear words are changed automatically if not okay.
   by selecting a capital letter at the start of your server name, you will need to inform others it is a capital or the search function will not work in finding your server.
   
   
6. Password - this prevents other public players joining your server. ( Protect your farm as you can not roll it back)
   
   
7. Select your internet connection type - set it to your internet speeds smooth limit, something that it will never fall under (Personal Advice)
   
   
8. Port - Dont change the default port, as only one instance of FS15 multiplayer is to be run at only one time, if you are chaning the port due to it already being used in your building or server house, change as you will in game and on your network properties.
   
   
9. Max Players - we only need a few friends in at one time so why set it high, the maximum is (10) by default, so set the ammount you need and increase those frames.
   
   
10. Use Upnp - Upnp referes to ( Universal Plug and Play ) this is key for users playing on the same network in the same house.
    select enabled if you are running this server on another machine.
    Un select if you are not using it on another machine.
    
    
11. Auto Accept - Auto accept is key unless you are on your computer 100% of the servers up time, Auto accept will allow new players to enter your server and not have to be accepted by the host, turing this on and setting a password makes it easier to manage who comes in and out with the use of just a password.
    
    
12. Auto Save - Auto save is key to keeping your farm saved during a power cut or a machine blowing up due to a number of reasons, (Recommended) that you keep auto save selected as [YES]
    
    
13. Select Mods - if you have DLC packages that your friends don't have, make sure you open this tab and double click to disable any active mods.
    Active mods can be seen via a green tick in the right hand corner of each module, to enable the mods, double click to install.
    
    
14. Start Game - after clicking this block you will be asked to select out of 3 servers to host via, (Recommended - International), we recommend international as its easier for users to find your server.
    
    
15. Tell your friends - tell your friends your (server region + server name and password) so they can farm with you.
    Remember - server name starting with a captial letter must be searched with a capital letter.

Q1. How do i change the ports?

Both UDP and TCP ports with a router / super hub can be setup by the users manual, for those who don't understand the router they use, a simple google search is optional on how their router works.

The default port for Farming Simulator 15 is :10823

This can be set as UDP or TCP, both can be set automatically with the latest of hubs, if you are to set indevidual UDP as "10823" and to set TCP as "10823" this is accpeted as its not duplicating the current protocols.

Q2. What if i rent a dedicated server?

Dedicated servers are confusing for first time users, hosting a server on another website in another country sounds fun, but hours of uploading and messing around can be a fus.

We recommend www.gameservers.com for Farming Simulator 15 servers, with an easy access panel online you can find everything simple.

The difference between using a hosted dedicated server such as www.gameservers.com is your in game banking and personal banking.
Like any normal server you will need a server admin password, this will be helpful for a situation like this.

For Example.
Q - My money doesnt show when on my server, and i cant see it, How can this be fixed?
A - If you have an admin password set up inside your dedicated server this is what you need, different from the server login password, you will need this to gain full admin controll inside the simulator,

A - Press "U" inside FS 15 and type in your admin password, this will then either accept the password you are using or reject it.

@WoFair thanks men,i just wanted to ask who to find the server of a person with dvd disc

[WoFair]

@Shen Yang, if the game is installed on PC, he can use the key in steam to activate the product on steam. disc is disc but it should be installed via steam.

[Shen]

What happened if a friend have the game on disk?

[⭐ඞ🄳🄴🄿🅁🄴🅂🅂🄴🄳🄼🄴🅇ඞ⭐]

it doesnt seem to work

[WoFair]

@Jerred Burns, to create the game itself it should be only a few seconds ( 10-20 ) seconds, if you are wondering how to load the server, depending on your computer specifications it could take max 1 minute.

The easy step to make a server is to create a new career and then save and exit.

After doing this you can click multiplayer and follow the instructions above.

Creating a server on a dedicated machine is all done via your hosts control panel and they provide a guide or tutorial on how to do also.


Kind regards

how long will it take to create the game

@Duhmedic Not neccerarily becase the game supports uPnP or unversal Plug nd Play feature wich most routers support

[Space Bat]

It may also be worth informing people to ensure that the port listed in the server set up is forwarded on your router so it is open to connections. <3
