I had the same problem when both the host and client were on the same PC, but it started working after a small tweak. Connecting to my own game via the server list didn't work. I do like so:
- in the dedi .cfg file, set
/ip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to the LAN IP address (and remember to uncomment the line
). Usually is 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x E.g. /ip=192.168.0.12
- start the host
- with the client, join specific game
- select
local network and put the LAN IP address in
When I do that, everyone can connect to my game using the server list, and I connect locally.
