But before you go ahead and start hosting, there are a few other options on the Dream Daemon interface that you may wish to play with. Continue opening folders until you see a DMB file. Inside each of those folders you'll see a list of games made by that author. Inside MyHub, you'll see a list of folders named after game authors. Inside Application Data is a folder called BYOND, which contains a folder called MyHub.
#BYOND HUB UNREACHABLE WINDOWS#

#BYOND HUB UNREACHABLE MAC OS X#
To host using the Linux, BSD, or Mac OS X command-line versions, refer to the included documentation instead. Note: This article covers hosting using the Windows version of BYOND.
