You're gonna have to provide more info than that.

Are you playing on the same connection? Is he going into "lobby" or "client"?

Different connection, same country. He goes to client and cannot see anything, in fact all of the settings like lobby etc he cannot see a thing.

He can it appears connect to a game directly via the direct connection tab, but cannot join me via the steam join friend option.

Some reports say this happens sometimes because of corrupt installation. Try checking file integrity in Steam.

He can probably direct connect to you if he can to other servers.

Alternatively ask him go to Steam -> Servers and add your IP to Favorites as a Favorit server. It will not appear in Steam but it will appear in game >> Multiplayer >> Client >> Favorites.

In case your provider puts you behind a router your server will not be visible in Client section but you can start server in Lobby section to make it visible from behind a router.
