Yeah, he means textdocument.
Just open the editor (or notepad, whatever), write your configuration in this file and save it as *.cfg. After this you right-click "teeworlds_srv.exe" and choose "create shortcut". Now right-click the shortcut and choose attributes. In the "Source" line, you insert "Path to teeworlds_srv.exe" -f name-of-the-config-file.cfg
Double-click the shortcut and your server is online. This is only working with Windows!

The whole thing in german, 'cause my english description might be a bit dubious:^^
Aaaalso. Du öffnest den Editor (oder Notepad), schreibst dort deine komplette Konfiguration rein und speicherst das ganze als xyz.cfg. Danach machst du einen Rechtsklick auf "teeworlds_srv.exe" und erstellst eine Verknüpfung. Rechtsklicke die Verknüpfung und wähle "Eigenschaften". Unter der Registerkarte "Verknüpfung" kannst du das Ziel eintragen. Schreibe dort "Pfad zur teeworlds_srv.exe" -f xyz.cfg hinein, bestätige mit Okay und öffne die Verknüpfung. Dein Server ist jetzt Online. Das ganze klappt natürlich nur unter Windows. Für Linux geht das irgendwie anders und mit Mac, soweit ich weiß, gar nicht.

1. hier wird englisch geschrieben... -.-

2.WARNING:No master servers. retrying in 60 seconds. it has nothing to do with vista. do you use a firewall or antivirus programm?? (windows defender)?? (windows firewall)??
3. to create a *.cfg file look at this... http://img177.imageshack.us/img177/7720 … nntjr6.png

Even if your router has portforwarding or porttriggering enabled for the ports 8300-8303 it may not work. --> Therefore just use port 80, it's the standard http port and should not cause any probs.

how do you start your server? with a *.bat file???
like "start teeworlds_srv.exe -f yourconfig.cfg"

Re: server hosting on version 0.4.2 and how to create a CFG datei

port 80 ? hahaha .. the http port 80 is TCP and the teeworlds server needs UDP.. these two things are not the same !!! forget that with port 80.. it wont work!!!
