Make sure that you entered the local IP of your server into the "Server IPv4 address" field.

i did put my IPV4 Address into the that slot , but what do you mean local ip of my server ? wouldn't that be 0.0.0.0 and wouldn't work ?

Re: ip error firewall blocking ? or ports are wrong?
The "either the IP address is wrong or a firewall on either system is blocking UDP packets" error can't show up when you start your server. It can only show up when you start your client.
Can you please confirm that you've already started tes3mp-server when you try using tes3mp?

the client is working fine , but when i start up "tes3mp.exe" it cant connect and gives me the error , im trying to start up the server.

im trying to start up the server , when i open "tes3mp.exe" it tries to run and then i get the error message, i cant find out what is wrong , i tried checking firewalls and all my ports and ip , double checking all the steps and it just cant stop with the error , also using tes3mp 0.7 alpha.

"tes3mp.exe" is the client. "tes3mp-server.exe" is the server.
If "tes3mp-server.exe" is running, you can always use "tes3mp.exe" to connect to yourself if your destinationAddress in tes3mp-client-default.cfg is "localhost".
If "tes3mp-server.exe" is running, you can always use "tes3mp.exe" to connect to yourself if your destinationAddress in tes3mp-client-default.cfg is "localhost".

There are two IPs you can set in the TES3MP config files.silentthief wrote: ↑03 Dec 2018, 16:06I thought that local address was 128.0.0.1 - not 0.0.0.0. See if that helps.

There's the destinationAddress in the client config, which is the default IP you connect to when you run tes3mp.exe without the server browser. It's set to "localhost" by default (which ends up being parsed as 127.0.0.1), making it so you connect to yourself when you run it, if you have a local server already running.
Then there's the localAddress in the server config, which is the local IP of the server on the network interface you want it to be reachable on. It's set to "0.0.0.0" by default, making the server reachable on all of its local IPs.
If he uses the default values and starts the server first, he'll always be able to connect to himself.

Still being blocked , ive changed server to my IP , could it be my modem? , i really just want to create a private server for me and friends to play over the internet and not locally.
