Chew Posted August 31, 2006 Share Posted August 31, 2006 add /console to the end of your shortcut for remote desktop connection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECF Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Does XP even support console mode? I thought it was only 2003 server that had console, unless you are using a third party tool like VNC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USBz0r Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 i used normal remote desktop on my friends xp box, and it worked fine. saw all his consoles. VNC wont work on my box, as soon as i login by it the thing closes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 Well here is an easy way to check your console. 1. Login to the server itself. 2. Open your browser and login to your panel. 3. Go to the service that is having an issue and click "service settings" 4. On the right hand side of the page look for the preview button and click it. 5. The full commandline for the game is displayed at the top of the page. 6. Clikc START>RUN and copy the full commandline into the space, ,and hit enter. This will start the game righ on the desktop so you can see what is wrong. Just make sure that you shut down the game inn the panel before doing this, so it isn't running twice.

USBz0r Posted September 18, 2006 Author Share Posted September 18, 2006 It comes up when i do that, but again, that doesnt solve the problem as this cant be controlled by tcadmin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 18, 2006 Share Posted September 18, 2006 That is simply running the same files that TCAdmin would start. There is no difference. That is exactly what the TCAdmin service uses to start the game. I would check your server logs to see if there isn't an error happening somewhere with the service.

USBz0r Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 it does it on all my servers, and on all my boxes. none of the consoles work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 That cause XP doesn't have a server console mode like win2k3 does I don't believe. You will need to use a third party program such as VNC or RADmin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USBz0r Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 still doesnt explain why my friends xo box shows console and it never worked in my win2k box either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
