Ok, So I've gone over all the basic steps, but now when I launch the YoYo Games app on my Iphone it changes rapidly between "connecting" and "Error, will try again".

I turned my windows firewall off (before I had turned it off, the phone just said "connecting" but once I turned it off it changes from "connecting" and "Error will try again"),I turned my antivirus off (temporarily) in case that was causing issues.

The ip address I put in Preferences->Web Server is 192.168.0.103/24 which is the IP address of my desktop. I kept the default ports the same.

On my phone I entered the address 192.168.0.103 and I am connecting to port 51268.

I tried the thing of going to http://192.168.0.103.../GameAssets.zip and Safari just said Page not found.

I've tried changing the port on both to other random 5 digit ports but that didn't work either.

Both the Iphone and the Desktop are connected to the same router whose IP address is 192.168.0.1

Is there anything else I am missing here?

Here are some Screen Shots:

Ok, I tried 51269,51270,51271 and 51275 and they all did the same thing.

Try changing the IP allowed list to this entry

0.0.0.0/0

It's apparently helped a few Android and iOS users.

For me i had to have routers IP address in the server list and then my computers ip address in the runner and after that it worked flawlessly.

I tried adding 0.0.0.0/24 and putting 192.168.0.1 (the router) on the list but that didn't work either. I also tried putting them all at once and that didn't work. I tried port forwarding on my router so that 51268 would go to my desktop, but that didn't work. I also tried using my internet IP addresses instead of my local IP address and that also didn't work.


Edit: I also Tried using 3 different routers, each of them did the same thing.

Whoa you've tried a lot! I'll put the steps that I did to get it working and maybe your get some luck

  • bring up the command line
  • type ipconfig
  • look for ipv4
  • enter that number in the runner

  • For the server list right click on your router in network
  • goto properties look for ip address
  • enter the number into the server list with /24 at the end

Select Ios from the drop down menu and run it then when it asks you to, open up the runner on your iDevice. I hope this works for you

Wow, I'm such an idiot. I didn't know I had to run the application first on my computer and then connect. I was trying to connect first and then hit run. Thank you for your help though.

Hi,
any solution here for that?
also Im stuck to "connecting.."

EDIT
SOLVED!!!!

on gamemaker put your IP for example: 192.168.2.2/24
and on your runner for example: 192.168.2.2 (without /24)

will work for sure

what is the IP address of the iOS device? if the iOS device is on the same network then it will have an address like 192.168.1.xxx if not then it will be another address basically if it is something completely different then put 192.168.1.51/0 into the ip allowed list (NOTE: This will allow any computer on the internet to connect to your machine on the port that you have specified - so this is not reccommended, but it may work).

Please ensure that the iOS device can see the computer i.e. go to Safari (web browser) and type in the web address http://192.168.1.51:...meAssetsIOS.zip (when GameMaker Studio is running with a game in Test (press the green arrow button in the tool bar)) - I am also assuming you have not changed the port number...

Try these...
