My friend and I are trying to create a server so just us can play and mess around. We've searched the net high and low for 2 weeks and STILL can't get it to work. We've tried using "create a server" in the application, Dedicated Server, and Source Dedicated Server. All, with the same result.
First, the result; when people join they are connected, then they get disconnected and in the console it says the account is already being used in a different location. Bam, that's it.
We've read that is can be a firewall problem. That we possibly need ports open. We added ports, didn't work. We completely shut off our firewalls, didn't work. And, neither of us use any router of any kind. I have dsl and he has cable.
