Creating SA-MP 0.2.2 server help?

[Fatboy_Rob]

Well, i would like to start learning PAWN, to possibly help you guys here at argo, and i wanna open a server(no adverstising here, thats dumb)

and, i have the server.cfg setup, and i click Announce.exe and nothing happens, then i click samp-server.exe and it opens.

idk...

its behind a router.
here is the server.cfg

Code: [Select]

echo Executing Server Config...
lanmode 0
rcon_password ****
maxplayers 32
port 7777
hostname Hayden's Server of Life
gamemode0 lvdm 1
filterscripts adminspec vactions
announce 1
query 1
weburl www.sa-mp.com
anticheat 0
now, what do i do? idk...
its confusing, ive looked everywhere, and all it says, is click the server.exe and i did, and i cant find my server on list, even if i add it to favorites..
Help?

1. If you are behind a router and want others to see, open port 7777 for UDP traffic in your firewall.
2. To join yourself use 127.0.0.1 (localhost) added in your favorites.

Good luck
