Just out of curiousity, did you guys remember to create a server key for this game? It is needed in order to run. For some great info on how to set a UT2k4 server up please see the following link. http://www.unrealadmin.org

Yes the BBO Manger must be run on the server first to setup the initial config of the game and map cycle. Please note this litttle tip: When you run multiple BF games on the same server you must assign them a different "Remote Console Port" for each game. The default is 7111. Any other game instances can simply be set to +1, so game number 2 set to 7112. This has allways worked for me in the past. If you don't set them differently it screws the works up. I have read that there is another way to accomplish this by specifying the manager PID for each game in the command line. But I haven't taken the time to play with it.

From what I gather most people use TCAdmin to run the BBO Manager as a service. Then simply have their clients login to the manager to control their game. The reasoning is this. BF rcon is very hard to use. The rcon commands are often hard to remember, and sometimes quite long, as in the case of changing a map. This is why most people prefer to use the BBO Manager. It's easy to use. However, you can run the game directly through TCAdmin if you prefer. You will need to use the BF1942 config file that's here and basically edit the mapslist.con file to reflect only the Dessert Combat Maps.

Most people use a third party server manager called in short, BBO. You can check it out here http://www.blackbagops.com However you can also run just the server for BF games and simply change the maplist.con file to reflect the DC maps instead of the standard BF1942 maps.

I know we have some people that host UT2k4. I am sure they will post something once they have read this.

Damn UT based games The panel automation process will automatically add +1 to the game port if it senses another game allready running on the existing IP and port number you enter.

The NS folder should only contain NS files. No cstrike files should be in there.

But you said you had renamed the cstrike folder and put the files in there. You want a seperate folder with the NS files in it. Leaving the cstrike folder as it is.

To save time you can copy them files from your installs directory if you wish. Once you have them copied to a new directory simply unzip NS into the top level. If I remember correctly the zip file for NS contains it's own directory structure. It should create a NS something folder. Basically just dont unzip them to the CSTRIKE folder. Put them in a game folder of their own. The call the -game command in the command line to tell HL which game to start.

Download a fresh copy from STEAM. Leave the CSTRIKE folder as it is. The -game command is what tells the HL engine which game/folder to use. Simply unzip NS into the top level folder. I beleive NS uses it's own folder, which I don't remember the name offhand. But use the -game command to load NS vs. CS. So in a nutshell don't rename the cstrike folder. Simply create a new folder for NS and put it's files in there. If you still can't get it, you can submit a ticket with your server and panel login info and I will take a look at it for you.

That would be something within the Windows OS or the HLDS executable itself. Maybe try reloading it?

Thx Doug

Please folks... check your configuration files carefully. I edited this one due to a reference to the posters company website. I don't think that other GSPs want to advertise for you Again I could be wrong...

I have updated the config file and added the kick and ban commands for the status page. The status page will now also accept rcon commands for the Source engine after last nihts update.

Sorry folks I screwed up one of the lines in the config file. If you have allready downloaded it please edit your server.cfg in the setup. rcon_password "%rconpasswor%" Please find this line in the server.cfg file and add a d on the end of password please. Should read like this rcon_password "%rconpassword%" Sorry

Thanks Paul!

Thanks for sharing! Please check your configs carefully for company tag lines. I found one in your hosted by command. Is edited it out for ya
