Ok I'm trying to host a dedicated server for Call of Duty 4, from my comp. I have found some good tutorials, and I have it set up, and people on my Local network can see it, but people outside the network can't see it. It's not connecting to the master server. Now I used a no-ip.net Ip transfer thingy, to keep my dynamic IP static, so instead of it being ###.###.###.### etc. it's clandor.no-ip.biz and clandor.no-ip.biz is redirected to my comp. However ingame when I connect to the server the Ip is 192.168.0.4:28960 which is my comp, and not my router. I have Port fowarded on my Router, and on my firewall, and even tried turning off the firewall, it still cannot be seen publicly.

Any ideas?

Thanks, sharf

DarkenedFantasies -- Probably just didn't care. For example, at some point before release, they've updated the graphics of some of the Protoss buildings (Forge, CyberCore, Citadel, Observatory, Arbiter Tribunal), but instead of properly re-rendering them with edited 3D models, they did crappy copy-paste jobs on the rendered graphics.

Ultraviolet -- I suppose we'll likely never know, but my guess would be that they already saw it operating successfully and there was no monetary incentive to finish the original work. And the dev cycle in old school Blizzard was so hectic, it's possible it just got forgotten about after the original game got released. Plus there's an element of existing MPQ files that were packaged with the original discs becoming outdated if they updated it. And it's not like they remade the original MPQs, they just made new ones for BW specifically

Oh_Man -- so that makes me think maybe the theory they are unfinished is not true and its a deliberate design decision, coz why not finish them wen ur making brood war?

Oh_Man -- the thing is thos buildings are from classic. that means they went ahead and made brood war without ever finishing the 'unfinished' buildings
