This is actually the best autorefresh ive seen so far becaus u can change the refresh rate and the player name! good job :thumbs_up:!
 
This crap doesn't work.. My port is 7802, I can host and yet why the fuck when I try changing autorefresh port to 7802, it always changes it back to 6112 which doesn't work.
 
What program does it need to run when you open one of the files?
