How can i Connect to a private server over the internet.
Live for speed wont allow internet IP addresses entered into local MP, and internet wont allow ip addresses.

is there another way of doing it?
the Server is not using the masterserver.

We are all using paid for S2 versions.

Hi,
I am not sure if I understood you correctly but you cant connect to the server which is not connected to Master server or your friend is trying to create server but without luck?
If someone want to host a server accesible over the internet he must have public IP adress.

Nine posts and not one bothered to answer the guy? .....

• Start LFS
  
• Click multiplayer
  
• Ensure Online mode S2 is selected
  
• Click start new game
  
• Select track (only comes up if you're running latest test patch and you can change it later)
  
• Change setting visibility to hidden
  
• Change game name something easy to write, clear and unique, like "nickh"
  
  The password options don't matter so much as you're running the game hidden and only those who know the name can join, secondly you only want to set the admin password if you need/want others to control the server. As you're running the server locally, you already have admin capabilities.
  
  Tell others you want to play with to do:
  
  
• Start LFS
  
• Click multiplayer
  
• Ensure Online mode S2 is selected
  
• Click Join specific game
  
• Ensure Join game on: internet is selected
  
• Change game name to the one you set when you started the server
  
  Note, the password field is also used for the admin login
  
  

The other options are pretty straightforward, just make sure you don't exceed your upload bandwith.
