I cannot find open servers for ra2 (multiplayer). Is there a way to play ra2 with your friends without hosting an own server?

abcdefg30 commented 3 years ago

Sorry, at the moment there is no stable version and no public servers.

Bashdog commented 3 years ago

Ok, could I use a Raspberry pi as a server instead? Is there a server image?

abcdefg30 commented 3 years ago

I'm not sure if a pi will have enough performance, but you can try that. You would have to download and compile the source and then use the launch-dedicated.sh script.

It worked but I get the error: "Warning: Server port is not accessible from the internet.", so how can I make it accessible to the internet?

Bashdog commented 3 years ago

I have done port forwarding (port 1234 --> raspberry pi), so what is missing?

abcdefg30 commented 3 years ago

If the master server can't ping the server but port forwarding is set up correctly my only guess is some sort of other firewall issue. (The game uses TCP btw.)
