Yep it isnt working, its futile. The problem itself is tModLoader not the user, unless this is resolved for people with family share tmodloader, then this issue will remain unresolved.

Yeah so it looks like the connection is attempted but fails, so in this case the host would need to check their firewall settings to make sure connections aren't blocked, and depending on their internet setup they'd need to port forward port 7777

Pprimary-violet Yeah so it looks like the connection is attempted but fails, so in this case the...

A

awake-maroonOP•6/6/25, 10:21 AM
