hello there, i am currently trying to set-up my server for ark and have come across a few issues.

First off i will link you to the guide i followed:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]


Then went on to watch the following video:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

now hears my problem, i can get the server to load, i can join it and my friends can join it if i invite them or they join my session but its not appearing in the unoffical server list, or on the steam server list (other than under Lan), i then went onto arks server browser website witch is the following:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

it did not appear on there either.

i have forwarded my ports as the server set-up has asked. (i have added them to both UDP and TCP)
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

i have put the ports to go through the firewall, and evan disabled my firewall and other antiviruses that might interfere to test and see if it works, and still nothing.

someone suggested it might be hamachi interfering so i disabled it:
[ Register or Signin to view external links. ]

here is what my server bat file is:
start ShooterGameServer.exe "TheIsland?SessionName=ArkSurvivalTheFunServer|MaxPlayerAndDinoLevel1000|x50Tame|x50Resources|TameableAlphas?ServerAdminPassword=<Adminpassword>?listen?AllowFlyerCarryPVE=True?QueryPort=27015?MultiHome=<my ip>?MaxPlayers=127?Port=7777?listen?GameModIds=501809686,517165623,512287754,512988714,502816928,510590313,509367357,506506101" -nosteamclient -game -server -log

i dont think there are any errors otherwise me and my friends wouldn't be able to join.

i am out of ideas. anyone here have any ideas?
