dont qoute me on this but i heard someone say this was working for atlas, again i havent tried it.
shared from a google search.

1. Step

• Press windows-key+R to open the run-dialog, enter “hdwwiz” without the quotation marks and hit Enter.
• In the following window click next, on the next page select the second option (should say sth like “select hardware from a list manually”) and click next again.
• From the list select “network adapter” and click next.
• On the next page select “Microsoft” as Manufacturer (left) and on the right side select “Microsoft Loopbackadapter”. Click next and wait until installation is finished.

2. Step
 

• Press Win-key+R again, enter “ncpa.cpl” without quotation marks and hit Enter.
• In the appearing window you will find a new network connection called “LAN Connection XY…Microsoft Loopbackadapter”, right click this and select Properties.
• On the Properties page click on “Internetprotocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)” so it is highlighted, then click the Properties button.
• Select “Use the following IP address” and enter your PCs external IP, which you can find out here What Is My IP f.e.
• Click OK, a warning will appear, notifying you that the Subnet mask is missing. Simply click OK again and the standard Subnet mask will be entered automatically.
• Click OK.

Now you should be able to join a server within your own network or on the same PC as the game.
Note: If your ISP assigns you a new IP each time you re-connect, you will have to change the IP used in the adapter accordingly (or get a fixed IP).

when your server starts..  how are you launching the dedicated server? with .bat? have you cleared the RedisDatabase? and is the RedisDatabase starting when you start the .bat files?

thats awesome..
