Project Zomboid

Consumer routers fecking suuuuuck. I spent over 2 hours of my free time at work trying to make the PZ server work :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:
I need a coffee and a donut and I’ll give it another go…

The server is running, but finding it and joining is another story.
Name: MEW PZ Server

Thanks buddy, I have updated your OP too with these details so they are easily referenced.

Got it working! :raised_hands:
There’s nothing coffee and curse words can’t fix

For some reason it’s not appearing in the in-game server list, so I’m going to drop my IP details on the Discord, the forum is too public. I hope to figure that out eventually.
It’s in #gameclub-chat

You made a decision?

I take it that just attracts more? I’ll trust your judgement on this one :wink:

I managed to join my server from 2 different PC’s, looks like everything is working as intended.

Now to arrange a time. I can hop on in the evenings (except this Thursday) and assist with connecting and getting new players get familiar with the mechanics and stuff. It would also be nice to do some server stress testing to see if my PC will cope.

The server will be available 24/7 unless there’s loadshedding, and the game pauses when no one is online.

I would hope to play around Friday night, they’re generally dedicated gaming nights for me.

Thanks for setting this up for the MEW Crew. :clap:
Going to try grab an hour tonight to install and get on if I can. Will probably be late though.

For those of us jumping on, I assume we’ll use discord for VC or something? If we use VC at all?

Does anyone have issues being on my stream?

Not from my side.

Always a pleasure, I’ve been away for far too long. Assetto is still coming :wink:

Ya Discord. The game has built-in VoIP with spacial awareness, but lets keep it simple.
No issues with streaming here.

Have added a spare voice channel (MEW Online) for collective use so we don’t tie up the General Chat channel.

@murfle, tell you mate to come join us here as well and then they’ll be part of the forum too :slight_smile:

I sent him the links. Not sure he’s even going to be available but I figured I should check with you guys first.

Let’s see what he says

Sooo, not so easy PZ then…

Have you seen my driving? It could be alive you next time.

I can still offer my services in this regards. Backup power :wink:

Either tonight after 8 or Friday night!

All good until it is monetised. Then we need to negotiate further.

I might kick off the odd OBS as well :wink:

I guess I’ll have to stream on youtube then… I’m not making enough on twitch to negotiate yet :sweat_smile:

Let’s discuss tonight?

So it sounds like it will be the 3 of us on tonight.
Don’t stress if you guys can’t make it, there’s Friday aswell. Then when everyone is comfortable, I’ll reset the server and we go for real.

So, yeah, I forgot about this…

No issues (if I’m there) but you may want to consider if you want to put the Discord Voice Channel on your stream or not. Language in some cases may be decidedly not family friendly. (Or change your rating to 18+ for those sessions?) With so many folks involved, difficult to prevent the odd cuss and colloquialism. (Or I could just be full of kak?!)

And me too :laughing: (Big maybe though. Been wanting to test a couple of things for a while now so we’ll see.)

Point taken. No, I was definitely going to mark it not-PG. Or just stream it on youtube where I don’t have that expected of me (yet)

Tried to join but had pings in the 2000 - 5000ms range.
