    It won't appear on LAN unless you change the ports the server is using.

    Yeah Chris, didn’t work though(it started rF2 and stopped at the “online” screen) so grabbed the ip address by hovering over your link and manually added to a desktop shortcut

    EDIT: Chris, sent you a DM

    Yes, i've set a password (tamerea10) and tried to join my server using the link on my Server list, but it only opens RF and bring me to the "home" of RF.
    Even if i go to multiplayer first, and then come back to my Server list, and click to join, it does nothing. I've tried this with an without steam opened.
    @Woodee, ok thanks. Which ports do i have to set for LAN ?

    Was the Steam Client running when you did it and did you click the blue Button and entered the Password in the opening small Window?
    Which Browser do you use.
    I use Firefox and it works properly.

    OK @Goanna has the same Problem and i try to find a Solution to solve it already.
    He did send me a modified Version of the used Link, that works for him.
    I will try to adapt it to my Server List.
    If it's done, i will inform you here, that you can try it out.

    EDIT Do you maybe have Firefox installed and can try it with that Browser too?
    And the Steam Client has to be running.

    Are you sure, that your Server is set up properly?
    I tried to join it by a direct Link, to check, if i can join it at all, but i get the Error "Invalid Server Details...."
    I need a properly running Server, to be able to test what the Problem is.

    The main fail of official on line system is to use only official content. Same for this hosting service Official content is good, but usually have fixed-uggly liveries, that harms it.

    @redapg Well, I admit that I suppose that my server is well configured because I followed the configuration steps step by step, but I cannot assure you. If not, I don't know what to do. Apart from hanging myself, or finding someone who could check my configuration, I don't know what to do anymore.
    @Nicolas Cortes Are you suggesting that I try something other than the Tatuus and the Bugatti? However, these are official items downloaded from Steam.

    The Bugatti Track is a Workshop Item?
    I think it's not S397 Content.
    Can you open a new Server with the same Name and without a Password (it's easier to test if it can be joined) and with Nola as the Track, instead of Bugatti?
    And check and ensure, that in the Muliplayer.json of the Server, the Entry
    "Enable Autodownloads":
    is set to true.
    Currently the Server seems to be offline.
    Isn't it a permanent running Server?

    Thank you so much for keeping here to help me redapg, really.
    I closed the server because i was playing a bit to RF and it doesn't work at this time. Sorry.
    Maybe i'll be a permanent server, i don't know at this moment.

    So i've followed your recommandations :

    Server with same name => ok
    Password => No
    Nola => installed
    Track => Louisiana -- Indy Grand Prix
    Muliplayer.json set to "Enable Autodownloads":true, => ok

    Just to be sure: you've made the Changes in the Files of the Server and you use the Steam Command dedicated Server, right?

    I still get the "Invalid Server Details..." Error.

    Can you please zip the rfmod File that you use and upload it here?
