I'm hosting a custom game on my FDS but it isn't showing up in the WOL server listing and I can't join it.
I'm using a different login name for FDS than the one I use to login.

Theres a possibility you may have messed up the objects.ddb file. Try copying on from your Level Edit and placing it in the Data folder of the FDS

what do you mean by 'messed up'?
is it possible that this problem could be caused by a router or firewall? (I have both of them) if so, how do you repair this?

1. Are you using a VALID Serial?
2. Did you modified the objects.ddb/objects.aow/objects.gm....?
3. Did you opened the ports on your router and your firewall? (Best
way, is a static port at the ServerConfig Files (dont know which at
the moment)).
What shows your FDS Server Window?
A normal Server should show sumthing like that:
Renegade Free Dedicated Server v1.037 BH-838 01/23/2003 - 10:59:26
Console mode active
*** Auto starting game. Type 'quit' to abort ***

Yes, valid serial; a westwood cd one (I'm using TFD renegade)
"Did you modified the objects.ddb/objects.aow/objects.gm....?"
I'm hosting a custom game (RenegadePlus). Stand alone like APB.
"Did you opened the ports on your router and your firewall? (Best way, is a static port at the ServerConfig Files (dont know which at the moment)"
what do you mean?

I don't think a real stanalone can actually access xwis normally. You should ask someone from APB or Reborn.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

Standalone mods work quite well on XWIS actually, because it uses the checksum from objects.ddb to decide which servers to list you only see servers for the mod you are playing when you login to XWIS, which is a nice touch really.

this is going slightly off topic,
I'm trying to host a custom game/mod server; I can't join my own server and it doesn't show up on the server listing (I'm using a different login name to host my server that the one I join with.)
The always.dbs are also exact copies in my client game and server. I've also replaced the always2.dat in my server folder with the always2.dat from my client data folder.
