Ok, so you've made some changes to your mod and you want to test it. The first way to test it is to manually click host multiplayer in the game, but that won't host your mod until you make the correct shortcut.

Right click on your Tribes.exe. Then click Create Shortcut. Then right click on the shortcut and click Properties. In the target location, type: -mod modname

That will host it undedicated, which is less stable than dedicated, but it does fine for testing by yourself.

To host dedicated, I recommend downloading Tribes DoS Fix IS. No, it isn't Tribes DOS fix, as in the O/S DOS.
http://nofix.annihilation.info

Download the 1.11 version, not the Build Version either.

Then do the same thing with DoSfix, as you would have with Tribes.
Ex: C:\Tribes\DoSfix.exe -mod annihilation -dedicated

Okay, I KNOW this is an old topic and I KNOW I had Dosfix before, but so you know that link brings my to a page with something about a baby yoda and an "x66" in the top left corner.

Googling Dosfix works much better.

Yeah, that was the first thing I did and forgot to post. For me the link did not work, so i poked around here to find the old one. But today it's working, odd. Thanks.

Edit.
Also, if you are hosting a server and plan on keeping your preferences the next time you start it;,
throw in the serverprefs.cs
"C:\DoSFix\DoSfix.exe" -mod Annihilation +exec serverprefs.cs -dedicated
