Simply click play and it should load up a list of servers for you to join. Happy Gaming!
Ports to Open:
If you are having issues connecting, the it might be due to network restrictions.
Its quite common for certain multiplayer games to require ports to be opened. For TES3MP you will need to open port 25560 to 25565, see example below.
To access your firewall, you will need to log onto to your router. To do this, you just need to open your web browser, and type in your local IP4 Address.
You can get this by going to Start and running CMD. This will bring up a black screen. In here, just type ‘ipconfig‘ which will display all your local network settings.
Once on your router, find the section that says firewall and choose port forwarding.
Note: Routers are configured differently, so there is no one universal guide. Reach out to your ISP for more details if you get stuck.
For the most part, this is one of the easiest multiplayer mods I have had to setup, which is a surprise given the age of the game.
