Contrary to popular belief, we are not all-knowing-all-seeing magical beings!

If you want help you're going to have to provide lots of info. Like what is your hardware, what is your operating system, what version of GZDoom/LZDoom/whatever you're using, what mods you're loading, how you're loading it, what you've already tried for fixing the problem, and anything else that is even remotely relevant to the problem.

We can't magically figure out what it is if you're going to be vague, and if we feel like you're just wasting our time with guessing games we will act like that's what you're really doing and won't help you.

I'm just trying to get a DOOM2 server running so I can play Reelism with a friend. But when I create the server, it doesnt show up in his Doomseeker thing. I have Zandronum and everything. I'm sorry if this is a stupid question. I need help.
