No no, that shouldn't be an issue, "dynamic IP" means only the way your ISP sets your IP. Please check http://www.qtrack...etcong.txt, if your IP appears there (probably at the bottom), after running a server. You can check your IP here: http://whatismyip....
It might take 5 minutes for Qtracker to notice your server, a bit uncomfortable, I know.
OndraG,Thank you so much for the information, in fact, now I see that the IP of my server is present in http://www.qtrack...etcong.txt
I hope that now the server is visible to other players.
The a * friend * got a colleague meant also plays Vietcong and the copy of the * hosts * file or insert the IP `s with the Admin rights to his Pc had difficulties.
If I have something written wrong, Sorry.
Copy with Admin rights to his Pc is for many already the beginning of the end, Pc has everyone can play, and everyone but the errors occur from fängts to.
Hope that you have the Got.

Yeah, now it has to go to the internet purely, so each player gets Vietcong modest, it goes on.

Thanks all for the discussion and the concern. Boggy is right that the easiest solution is the best, but not so right in thinking that unzipping is the easiest one. Here comes even easier solution (thanks Plissken for the idea): download http://vietcong1....racker.bat, run it as an administrator (if needed) and you're done! It changes the hosts file automatically for you.
Do you really think that downloading a batch file (with an IP added in your batch file could be outdated at any moment bcoz could change at any time) from a website (could close at any time) and say "do all that with admin right" (just talking about right admin to a noob with informatic and you lost 99% people) is the way more ... easy ??? just let me laughing
The link I sent come from QTRACKER (not from my website), QTRACKER is the only one website allow to inform everybody how to find all VC server, without need change anything in the game (install patch, or anything cracking a file, or install anything else...)
And it working for VC 1.01 like 1.60.
Don't forget that 100% player discovering this game are downloading the game from internet by P2P or else and then start to play on 1.01 version before know that some patches exist...Then if you want keep this game alive, think to the "potential" new player coming.
Then continu to write some alternative solution (with batch will be out of date in few month , from a website closed in few month, with more complicated things to do) and everybody will be lost with 100 differents solutions.
m8. i dont insult u (and your skills) but u r on the wrong way anyway. reply. i will not get in this conversation.
So ok .
On 25 July, I have been the first to give solution and confirm the solution work fine here.
Nobody did it befoire like nobody could confirm before Gamespy is down if the solution with hosts could work or not.
And you came to give another solution, from another website (website I found down a couple of time for maintenance)
Qtracker gave a solution with all necessary explaination to their website.
They host themselves a host file contain IP adress that only them could KNOW , then please .. stop tell me that you can do better than them.
Qtracker don't working only for VC but for lot of game too.
Then Sorry, I prefer downloading a host file from them, than from a website made by "i don't know who", down lot of time.
As you said : When it work, it work .. then apply to yourself what you say.
People think they have alway a better solution than other just piss me off.
And if you have nothing else to reproach me the color of my font , it's time to wear glasses
I'm writing with this color since 2005 everywhere, it's my sign.
Enjoy it
Ondrag:
Thx for all your comment consist to teach me informatic and what is a host file and explain to me need admin right .. etc ... (do u know me ? do u know my job?)
But as I can see, you discovering what is "helping people with informatic" and ignore that player of Vietcong can be from 10 to 60 year old.
The only solution you give consist to tell people that only your website can fix the pb when Qtracker already did it before you and since a long time.
Your website adding, like all your explaination, nothing much, eccept confusion.
Vietcong can working without your script, without your website.
Just tell me then, how you found IP adress to add in hosts file ?? yourself or Qtracker did it for you?
So why now tell that you found solution if Qtracker did it for you, me and everybody.
You acting like "i'm the man found solution", but you are causing confusion.
If the only thing you have to write about me is to "change color" ... mhhh... no comment and enjoy it.
I'm bored by people think they are alway better than other and take for them, the job made by other.
The only thing that you are able to do is immediatly after my post, write your website adress and your solution with your script, it was absolutly not necessary. As you can see, you are useless bcoz your solution add nothing much as Qtracker did long time ago before you.
Keep your website and your script for your friends and don't add more confusion to fix the pb with visible server for Vietcong. I think that people like you destroyed this game enough with "cracked" server allow 64 player to all map .. and more wrong things i will not develop here.

Qtracker has not an ingame serverlist, so I will try now Gameranger. That IP connecting stuff bored me, it´s a bad solution
Then good bye and good luck and if you find better, everybody DON'T waiting for you ...
You are excatly the kind of guy I described in my post before.
This solution work, then there is nothing else to do
gameranger has 5 Millions connecting players availabe and you want to start connecting over IP Connecting, it´s more complicated. Check that serverlists, it´s very comfortable and you can host without config something, because it´s automatically UPnP configuring, if this don´t work, you have to open just only 3 ports, then you can host and play 300 games.
http://www.gameranger.com/
in the moment just only Vietcong Fistalpha multiplayer demo 1,6 is working there without problems

Did you just tryed ? I think not!
This is not connecting by IP .. learn to read ...
This solution make working Vietcong totally like before with a list of server ... in the game !
Thx for your useless comment adding again more confusion and to tell that you'll do better than everybody here.
yes, I am hosting now Vietcong Fistalpha multiplayer demo, it works (Stream and Bridge Map)
Vietcong 2 works, too
You browse that games and then join with one-klick games what you want with gameranger
You just see only all black and negative. I host and play all games with gameranger, I don´t want to ingame connect.
One klick and you see 1000 of servers.
It´s very comfortable.
You know already but still who brought this with Qtracker Admin (Ron.Mercer) in motion, otherwise would as yet no server list here and the possibility of using the * hosts * file.
That was me, if he had no copy of the Vietcong game and everything else I had sent him, we had until now no server list.

I never said contrary, but before 25 July, who know that it could working ?
Then maybe it's not clear, but I'm gratefull about this solution and Qtracker, SINCE A LONG TIME wrote a tutorial about it, and long ago time before 25 July !!!
And when I mean I have been first, I mean I have been first to wrote here on 25 JULY to confirm that this hosts solution is working good and there is nothing else to do.. What is wrong with this?
The thing piss me off if that when u say something working good, easy to do and somebody else come to make advert for his website and write like "the solution is this script" solution more easier. But this script like the website can be closed at each moment, with IP out of date .. etc.
OK, this topic is over there is nothing else to write here if everybody have better solution .. so OK ... Nobody is able to making simple and the best way is the most complicated.
X using software because he can see 10000000 servers (who care ????), Y using a script hosted by himself (congrats, u are able to making a serverlist on a website and hosting a .bat file), and Z is developping a software will coming soon ... (so u can stop it, it's useless now but ok .. continue)
Ok : VC is dead, thanks all for useless job and useless point of view and wanted to making better than something simple is working fine.
Kangeruh, by the way : THANKS TO YOU AND QTRACKER TO WASTE YOUR TIME FOR PEOPLE, like you can see, all that you did is useless because some idiot can do better than a simple solution.
Why making simple when more complicated can be done...
Hi Kurtz, you may have done it all alright, but there's a crucial point in finding the correct path, which may not be very easy for all the players, so you may try downloading http://vietcong1....racker.bat and running this script (maybe with right mouse button and "Run as an administrator" command). This should fix it for you.
i did what you wrote: dl, cut, paste the file hosts... but it doesn't work.
any suggestions?
thx a lot
Hello,
You forget "unzip" .. read again :
1 - Download
2 - Unzip
3 - Copy file hosts unzipped and Paste it in good directory : C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc
No need check Firewall, no need reboot .. no need sing a song or jumping with 1 leg...
