Step 1: System Requirements

Before we begin, let’s make sure your system meets the minimum requirements to host a Just Cause 3 multiplayer server. Minimum requirements are:

Requirement	Specs
CPU	Intel Core i5-2500K @ 3.3GHz or AMD Phenom II X6 1075T @3GHz

If your system meets the requirements mentioned above, then you are good to go.

Step 2: Downloading and Installing the Just Cause 3 Multiplayer Mod

The Just Cause 3 Multiplayer mod is a third-party mod that allows players to host and join servers. To start hosting your server, you first need to download and install the mod. Follow these steps to download and install the mod:

1. Go to https://just-cause.mp/

4. Once the mod is installed, launch Just Cause 3 and select the “Multiplayer” option from the main menu.

Step 3: Port Forwarding

Before you can start your server, you need to forward the required ports on your router. This will allow players to connect to your server. Here are the steps to port forward:

1. Open your web browser and type in your router’s IP address in the address bar. If you don’t know your router’s IP address, you can find it in the manual or by doing a quick Google search.
2. Enter your username and password to log in to your router’s settings. If you haven’t changed your username and password, the default username and password will be “admin” and “password” respectively.
3. Once you are logged in, look for the “Port Forwarding” or “Virtual Server” option in the settings. The location of this option may vary depending on the brand and model of your router.
4. Click on the “Add” button to add a new rule. Enter the following information into the fields:
• Service Name: Just Cause 3 Multiplayer
• Internal Port: 4200
• External Port: 4200
• Protocol: TCP
• Internal IP Address: Your computer’s local IP address
5. Save the changes and exit your router’s settings

You have successfully forwarded the required ports on your router.

Step 4: Setting Up the Server

Now that you have installed the mod and port forwarded, it’s time to start your server. Follow these steps to set up your server:

1. Launch the Just Cause 3 Multiplayer mod from the main menu of Just Cause 3.
2. Select the “Host” option from the server browser.
3. Enter a name for your server and select the game mode you want to host.
4. Adjust the server settings according to your preferences.
5. Click on the “Start Server” button to start your server.

Congratulations! You have successfully set up your Just Cause 3 multiplayer server.
