Have the files been released yet for this game server type to the public. I was not able to get it before hand? I thought it was suppose to be april 1st.

Hey guys I am new to this feature. I guess when I got started using tcadmin a long time ago, they didnt have it or I just didnt see it. Can someone give me a faq or examples of how to use this properly. I am trying to create a config file where they can only edit certain things or chose from drop down boxes. Any help would greatly be appreciated. George

Does anyone yet have a suggested working config file for this game type they would like to share?

Just wanted to share this with the group. There is a cssbeta and a cstrike_beta. Here is the list of games using the hldsupdatetool hldsupdatetool -command list Checking bootstrapper version ... ** 'game' options for Source DS Install: "Counter-Strike Source" "ageofchivalry" "cssbeta" "diprip" "dods" "dystopia" "episode1" "esmod" "garrysmod" "hl2mp" "insurgency" "l4d_full" "left4dead" "left4dead2" "left4dead2_demo" "orangebox" "pvkii" "smashball" "synergy" "tf" "zps" ** 'game' options for HL1 DS Install: "cstrike" "cstrike_beta" "czero" "dmc" "dod" "gearbox" "ricochet" "tfc" "valve" ** 'game' options for Third-Party game servers "ageofchivalry" "aliensvspredator" "darkesthour" "darkmessiah" "defencealliance2" "diprip" "dystopia" "esmod" "garrysmod" "insurgency" "killingfloor" "marenostrum" "pvkii" "redorchestra" "ship" "sin" "smashball" "synergy" "tshb" "zps" cstrike_beta appears to be a hl1 game while cssbeta is a orangebox game. From the initial post here I think cssbeta is what we are referring to. George

Right you can do this as an overide but it will not be setup this way by default. With the security holes in valves engine I would like to see if this would be possible to do. This will prevent the exploit in the orangebox engine to allow them to download the server.cfg. The only other option is to disallow downloads, which is really not a option with all the custom maps out there.

I know this can be done for games like css, l4d, l4d2, gmod, tf2, ect, but when creating the command line you cant use %rconpassword% to have it input the rcon they requested when the server is being created. I know this can be done for the config file but I would like to do this in the command line. Is there away around this? George

I am running into this error where the game is not the right steamapp id. I have read that the issue is known and has to be changed manually to 1280. When I do this they can join the server but they game is "weird" they say. I have manually install the files using the hldsupdatetool and still have this issue. As I understand this, this use to be a mod of rh before it was its own game. Has anyone experienced this issue?

On the hldsupdatetool which one is l4d2 "l4d_full" "left4dead" "left4dead2_demo" I am glad they are clear on these things. George

Well to bring this back to what I was asking, thanks for the config, however it does not work. The game will not load. I created my own config and it had its issues but it loaded the game. I looked at the command line for this game and there is none. It just exe the ucc.exe and thats it. Are you controlling it through the ini file? George

When I use your batch the superuser is not set right. If I just have it only execute murmur.exe twice (not murmur2) then it works fine. George

I am having an issue getting this working for the 1.2 alpha. However I think I know what the issue is. If you use this command start murmur.exe -supw %var% it sets the password, but does not start the server. So if you just run it again, it will then start the server. However there is an annoying box that says, Superuser password has been set on server 1 Is there a way to auto close this. It appears when I stop the sever it closes, so it not too important. Just wanted to share this. George

Does anyone have a working config file for this game type. I tried to make one myself and I was able to get the server to launch but when I try to join the server it gives me an unknown steam error.

I looked through the server.cfg file and I didnt see an rcon password set. Was this just missing or does this server not have rcon ? Also how does one get on the official GSP list for this game? Is this going to be like bf2 for ranked servers?

Saw this game on steam today. Has anyone played the Multiplayer for this? Was wondering if it was like Cally of duty but western style. George

I am trying to get BF2 with bf2cc running and I believe I have it working but I get this error 6/25/2009 4:53 AM: >>>>> STACK: System.ApplicationException: FATAL ERROR Trying to Read the Profile: c:\games\georgetest\gameservers\tc7516400217716771 8635834\bf2cc\default.profile You should DELETE ALL *.profile files in the Daemon folder and restart the daemon. ---> System.ArgumentException: System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format. at System.Number.ParseInt32(String s, NumberStyles style, NumberFormatInfo info) at System.String.System.IConvertible.ToInt32(IFormatP rovider provider) at System.Convert.ToInt32(Object value) at System.Data.Common.Int32Storage.Set(Int32 record, Object value) at System.Data.DataColumn.set_Item(Int32 record, Object value)Couldn't store <> in ServerPort Column.

I am not sure what is the problem here. I looked over the file that was generated and it appears to be fine, but the error suggest that it is expecting something and not getting the right input. Can anyone post a working bf2 config file. Maybe I just got a bad one.

When I try to run the server I get this error This application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem. I am sure I am missing something that is required for the game like dont net 3.0 or something. Does anyone know what could be missing? George

For some reason I can not set a private password on this game type. I have set it in the server.cfg set g_password "scrim" set password "scrim" and still nothing. I am pretty sure that g_password is correct, but I did some searching on the web that suggested other wise. Both are set and hlsw are showing both set, but there is no password and tcadmin is throwing up emails stating as such. I did a quick search in these forums and found there was an issue with rcon passwords but not this. Does anyone know what this could be?

Thought I would chime in here. If you look here http://mumble.sourceforge.net/Running_Murmur#Web-Interfaces It lists several web interfaces that can work with this. The most promising one appears to be Murmur CP, however the site is down. You could use the script above that works with tcadmin and then have the client download the Murmur Admin Console (http://bograt.com/Murmur/) and this would allow them to configure the server after they get it. The control panel would be purely to start and stop it at that point. I myself would like to try the murmurcp but I dont know if I trust a web app from a place called hidden servers , plus the site is down. George

Ok I was able to get around that issue, but now I have another. I have created this as a secondary service and it works fine, but even though I set it to manual, after it finishes, and closes, tcadmin starts it up again. Is there a way to prevent this, to where it will just close and stay stopped until it is started again?

Anyone here have access to the ARMA 2 beta and is running any servers? Looks like its a pretty cool game. Just wanted to start a thread since its release date is June 26th. Would be nice to have a working config before the game actually hits the shelves.

When you join a bf2 server, while loading you see a banner on the right side that clans or GSP's can set. How do you set this? Is it an actual file or can you have it point to a url? George

I have found a program which can ftp to both your game server and and a ftp/website and compare the files of the game server to a template game server. It will then bzip up all the files that are different from the template and upload them to the web server. I have been running this manually for customers when I realized I could make this into a service and give it to the customer so they can just press start. My only issue is that when the programs ends it says, press any key to continue. I can make the service manual, but the issue would be if they did not press stop, it would stay there. Is there a way to get around this, like for example set a time period and it will kill the service, or some how send a command that will make the program think an key has been sent? I have tried using a batch file but did not work. George

Hey guys got a weird problem. I setup a TFC server today and for some reason the custom command line feature is not in the server control panel. I thought I did not enable it, so I go to the game type, and it is setup properly and enabled. What could cause this issue? George
