Re: Tutorial (Video) - Setting up a dedicated server
Hey fordry, Hope ya well...
I just seem to get a whole red video screen in Firefox and IE after about a minute (just before you mention the player key so I dont know if this was intentional to hide your key etc).. left it going for a min or so but it stayed as a fully red video screen.
This COULD be my PC but it's a reasonably fresh install of XP updated to SP3 thru Windows Update on a brand spanking new pc.. See if anyone else has problems before fixing it but I thought I'd mention it up front...
Top idea mate and I hope its mine just being awkward.
Best of luck and happy driving (or happy building servers lol!)
P.S. Its not just you who cant create new topics in tutorials, Hopefully admin will give a reason and 'sticky' it in there... (along with the right place to place such media!)

Re: Tutorial (Video) - Setting up a dedicated server
Hi, i'm interested in the idea of running a server, so i'm looking around for a tutorial to get me off the starting blocks.
May i ask where i can watch this video, as i can't see any links in any posts, or am i just being dumb and missing it ?

Re: Tutorial (Video) - Setting up a dedicated server

Re: Tutorial (Video) - Setting up a dedicated server
Ok, i finally got it completed and uploaded to youtube. Enjoy
