Nice guide ty!

[DJMB]

thx for the guide

[Cybershot]

There is a new version: 1.5

[greenbackz]

does anyone ever play this?

[themerchant8]

There are around ~270-300 players on constantly for wars, and usually there are multiple no cd key servers going around.

Problem is, they're all Russian with ~250 ping from where I am. I want to host one over here in America (west coast) but I can't seem to find any guides on how to HOST a cracked server. Plenty of guides on how to connect, but nothing for hosting =/.

Something isn't right here... Blocking the ports isn't working for me.

So far, nada.

PS:next I tried a "keep it simple stupid" approach and tried to block the port using Window's plain built in firewall.
===========================
With a bit of research, I discovered that windows firewall already blocks that port because I didn't make a specific exception to allow it thru.

So apparently blocking ports isn't enough, or for some odd reason it just doesn't work on Vista.

Um..when i use qtracker there arent any servers just 1 and it does even work..

Hi Again!

Some updates about Crysis wars.

Latest patch is as mentioned above 1.5
http://www.bigdownload.com/games/crysis-wars/pc/crysis-wars-v15-patch/

There is a Crysis Wars trial out that is legal to download
http://www.bigdownload.com/games/crysis-wars/pc/crysis-wars-trial-single-file/

Windows Server Documentation - Patch 1.5 Here U find All necessary info for starting Ur own Server.
http://www.mycrysis.com/servercornersite.php?site=6

And the bonus!
The Magic Fix for Ur server To get More Players like U 

For Vista, 2008 and 7 (Might be some differences But its close. Made this under Server 2008)

EDIT: Always start the server U going to work on first so U can Unblock it in the Firewall popup. (All Ur work can get lost if U don't)

1. Under Inbound Rules In the Firewall make a New Rule (I'm hope U all can find the Firewall).

2. Press Next And Browse to Bin32 or Bin64 CrysisWarsDedicatedServer.exe (Now U need to decide if U going for 32 or 64Bit)

3. Press Open when 32 or 64Bit CrysisWarsDedicatedServer.exe Is marked.

4. Press Next and Tic Block the connection (Already Ticked when U do Outbound Rules) , Press Next again.

5. And Next again (I know its A lot of Next But that's Win In a Nutshell ).

6. Now U need to Type in a Name for the Rule Maybe CrysisWarsDedicatedServer fits for U.

7. AND Finally Press Finish.

8. So Now U need to do this 3 times more Yiiipiii :'(

9. Do this 1 more time in Inbound Rules Exactly the same from point 1 to 7.

10. OK Now U should got 2 Inbound Rules.

11. Goto Outbound Rules and make a New Rule Follow point 2 to 7.

12. And now do point 11 again so u got 2 Outbound Rules.

13. Now Find 1 of Ur Rule And double click it.

14. Under Protocols and Ports Make look like this.

Protocol Type: UDP/TCP (U need to do a Rule for both UDP and TCP)

Local Port: All Ports

Remote Port: 29910

15. Press OK and Open Ur other Rule and do the same (point 13 to 15) except for UDP/TCP (If u took UDP on first rule take TCP this time).

16. And do the same to Outbound Rules (point 13 to 15)

17. Now Close Firewall Down and If not done yet Start make Ur server.

That simple it is

Hope this Helped

If U want to Mod Crysis Wars U need Crysis Wars Mod SDK Package - 1 Its Free to download.
http://www.mycrysis.com/filebase.php?fileid=9441

I remember It was a little Bit tricky to install. Don't remember exactly but Don't trust the path the installer give U, Chose the same folder as Ur Crysis Wars is installed in (Make a BACKUP of Ur Crysis Wars Before Installing, It is highly possible that something messes it up. Or U accidental save over a stock map, It happens even to the best ).

Any questions I will try to Answer

Let people know if this works for ya.

Those twolinks in the above qoute might help you out, in one post a guy named Ligithin says:

In all honesty the one and only thing you must do to run a Crysis or Crysis Wars cracked server is get a firewall that you can block port 29910 as this is the port that Crytek uses to authenticate keys with.   Make sure you block it coming from and going to the Internet using Protocols TCP/UDP..

That much should be able to nullify their key check system and have the server do a local authentication, honestly I don't know why they even bother checking keys in the first place if it was this simple to bypass, and also judging by the number of people who are not playing right now.

-Ligithin

dig around though and read the posts found here you might find something else. And dont try everything at once try things one at a time or in small combinations that way you can be sure of what exactly went right ro wrong.
