Press start, go to Settings (Engrenage), click on Network & Internet.

When the network connector says « Private Network » in the middle at the top, toi’c'est fini

Press the Windows key again and type in « Windows Defender Firewall with Advanced Security » and open the app that appears. Left click on Inbound Rules.

Port forwarding router

Here I show you the port forwarding as an example on a Fritzbox 7430!

If you have a different router, find out how port forwarding works on your router. This is only an example and can be different to other routers.

The ports that must be are the following: TCP 27015, TCP 7777 and UDP 27015 for IPv4 and IPv6 respectively.

Open fritz.box in your browser and log in with your access data (found on a sticker in the manual or on the bottom of the router).
Then click on Internet -> Permit Access. In the Port Sharing tab, cliquez sur « Add device for sharing » in the lower area.

As a device you select your PC on which the server is running. (Si vous ne’t know the PC name, press the Windows key and type in Info, which opens the System Information app. System name is the name of the PC.).
Scroll down a bit and click New Share in the bottom right.
The window should then look like this:

Then press OK in the lower area and Apply in the overview. Sois patient, page loading time may take some time depending on your router.

After successful port release, the server can now also be reached by others.

Configure the Re.Poly Server

Enfin, we take care of the personal configuration of the server such as name, passwords, player slot,…

Now navigate to the RePoly/Saved/Config/WindowsServer folder
Here right click on the Game.ini file and edit.
Now enter the following in this file:

Important information about the entries!
Everything after //[… does not come with entries! The text is for descriptive purposes only and must be removed.

You can do whatever you want with these settings. Avertissement: too extreme settings for the number of players, DropDelay, and the multipliers can lead to a crash!

Enfin, just save the Game.ini and start the server by double-clicking on « ServerStart.bat ».
