Re: Use public ip or private ip when hosting on VM?
@sKipper you have to update Photon.LoadBalancing.dll.config in deploy/LoadBalancing/GameServer/bin. There is PublicIpAddress property in GameServer settings section
Our photon control does request to special service that tries to detect your public IP. If it is not same as your router IP you have to get one for the router. Otherwise, nobody will be able to connect.
here is a table for LoadBalancing config: https://doc.photonengine.com/en-us/server/current/applications/loadbalancing/loadbalancingconfig
here is a table for server configuration:

Re: Custom Authentication with PlayFab fails again
Hi @masunaka,
I think there were some Photon Cloud issues related to this and got sorted out.
Could you retry and see if it has been resolved already?

Re: Voice V2 asset and OpRaiseEvent
Hi @YanivClone,
Thank you for choosing Photon!
May I ask why?
We imagined that Photon Voice client is used for voice communication only and PUN is used for everything else. Are those events related to voice coms?
You can use
However, you need to be careful to not use reserved event code.
Also, those events will not be received from the PUN client but from the Photon Voice client.
In general, use event codes from 1 to 199.

some errors about modified collection I'm receiving when sending through the client of voice connection
What errors? could you provide repro steps, code snippet, logs, stack trace?JohnTube

Re: Failed parsing address:
Hi @coldflyingcats,
Thank you for choosing Photon!
Make sure PhotonServerSettings did not change during the update.
Double check server address and port in the settings.

Re: Can i use unlimited server in Unity ?
Hi @MohamedAhmed,
Your questions are not clear.
You can use any of the Photon Realtime client SDKs or PUN or Photon Voice to connect to Photon Cloud or to a self-hosted Photon Server.
The change in the code is minimal between the two (mainly how you connect and minor tweaks due to the differences between Photon Cloud and Photon Server) but you need to read this first.
Photon Server is independent of Unity Engine.
There is client code and server code.
You can choose to not change anything in server code.
Unity code is most of the time for the client only.

Re: No P2P in Photon Products
Hi @minotter.
The Photon Realtime C++ Client SDKs do support p2p connections in addition to the relay-server approach that is supported by all Photon products.
When creating a room, you have the choice to either a) do not let the clients establish direct connections to each other (this is the default) or to b) let each client in that room establish a direct connection to the master client or to c) let each client in the room establish a direct connection with every other client inside the room. In cases b) and c) you can still also send relayed messages through the room. The relay is also used under the hood to exchange the IP addresses of the clients and to do NAT-punch-through and is functions as optional fallback, if no p2p connection could be established between some of the clients because NAT-punch-through has failed.
This feature is not available in the Photon Realtime Client SDKs for other programming languages, like the C#, Lua or Javascript Client SDKs, nor is it available for any other Photon products , although Photon Bolt Pro has a very similar feature, as @JohnTube has already mentioned.

Re: No P2P in Photon Products
Hi @minotter,
All Photon products use the client-server model yes.
All Photon products use the client-server model yes.
In other words, Photon in general does not facilitate direct peer to peer connections.
Photon Bolt has punchthrough capabilities and Photon Bolt Pro offers direct connection to a host client. It's still not peer-to-peer but a client is a host/server.JohnTube

Re: Duplicate OnRoomListUpdate Callback.
Hi @Harley,
Thank you for choosing Photon!
Did you set both EmptyRoomTTL and PlayerTTL to 0?
If you want to allow quick rejoin or rejoin set EmptyRoomTTL only to 0.

Re: Unexpected Raise reception on PUN 2
Hi @hirakata,
Thank you for choosing Photon!
LoadBalancingClient.EventReceived event is called for all incoming events not only custom ones.
201 and 206 are PUN specific events. See
You can ignore those and handle only your own custom events.
