gmadmin Posted June 22, 2007 Share Posted June 22, 2007 I would rather use whmcs over modern bill. Call it a personal preference but to me modern bill is MODERN HELL! As soon as Im done with my swat 4 quest, I will start posting my findings on whmcs. Thats assuming I dont steal too much bread from people. However for guy like me you can keep it, I will take the cracker crumbs any day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jardin_101 Posted July 5, 2007 Share Posted July 5, 2007 Hey gmadmin, i agree with you, modernbill looks complicated like sh*t, but whmcs is alot better for us. Was so happy with the panel that i bought the one time licence fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exploit Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 We use whmcs aswell, Although it has some limitations its a solid panel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Anyone using it for automated setups yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 Automated setups seem a bit more complicated than just setting up the server and it working. I am going to be working on integration and auto-setups the next 2 weeks so I will post my results here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted July 6, 2007 Share Posted July 6, 2007 I know some people have said they had issues with it in the past. I was just curious if WHMCS was actively correcting problems etc... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variable Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Auto setup works great, fast and flawless! For example, as soon as they pay for TeamSpeak, it is setup within 5 seconds! One addition I recommended is multiple datacenter option in there system. They are going to make it happen as soon as they are done with the new version. The only issue is tracking your existing MB customer in their system. You may have to update all your customers invoices. New customers, no problems!

Exploit Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 We use it for automated setups no problems! There are a few things that could be changed to make it even better, however for an initial release its good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECF Posted July 8, 2007 Share Posted July 8, 2007 Cool. Glad to hear it is working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I have automated setup nearly working. However, when I go to Pending Auto Setups, and try to process it, I get an error that the game server locaton couldn't be found (fearserver.exe i'm assuming). But, when I create the game manually with the admin login it works just fine. If someone knows of a solution please let me know. In the meantime, I will be trying to fix it.

Variable Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Assuming that your settings in TCA are all correct, you only have to configure in WHMCS: Manage Servers: Select: Tcadmin Admin Account in your TCA: Username: Password: Then, under Products & Services... 1. Create a New Group: Name of Game or Vioce... 2. Create New Product. Make sure the Game or Voice ID is correct and Datacenter ID be must inserted for automation to work. That should be it. TCAdmin side: 1. Admin Home > System Settings > Plugins > Automation Configuration Make sure that Billing API Settings is enabled 2. Admin Home > System Settings > Servers > Server Details Billing API settings. Make sure you Allow Signups and the game you want installed in that server are selected.

symbiote_venom Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Thanks for your reply, though all of that has already been set. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exploit Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Maybe your datacenter field? Naje sure in your package server settings you have the "Game Datacenter" field with TCA datacenter ID. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Yeah the datacenter ID is in there, it just gives me that error in tcadmin that the game files supposedly don't exist. :/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swish Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 Check in TCAdmin...Each server. Scroll to bottom and make sure your "Allowed Services" is more than 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Service Level: 10 Service Limit: 20 Though still not working. Thank you all for your continued help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variable Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Yeah the datacenter ID is in there, it just gives me that error in tcadmin that the game files supposedly don't exist. :/ Where did you place your files in your Master Server? And how did you pack the game files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Well for FEAR, I put all the files in c:\GameInstalls\FEAR Not quite sure what you mean by "packing" the game files. I know what packing is but I thought you just had to put the exe and all of the required files in the folder. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variable Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 I would .zip or .rar the whole game file and place it outside the folder of that game. For example: Game Files AA AA28 BF2 CS CSS DOD FEAR AA.zip AA28.zip BF2.zip CS.zip CSS.zip DOD.zip FEAR.zip You get the picture? Keep all the unzipped files in their folders and as soon as they are zipped, place them outside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Okay, I have done that. It is almost working except for a few issues that are preventing complete automatic setup. I have to go into Pending Auto Setups and select Process (Advanced). Once in there, there is two options in the drop down for Server:, the first is a blank (not sure why), and the second is Master Server. Also, the RCON Password doesn't seem to be sending, or it could be that because of that blank option the RCON Password "option/field" is disabled and so it is never received. But after I manually select the Master Server option and enter a RCON Password it sets the server up just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variable Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Submit a ticket. Your settings in TCAdmin are not correct. The way you have it now is that your customers will get an email to complete the setup. There they can input rcon password and whatever is necessary to build the game. If you want it complete automatic and skip this portion, you'll have to look at your settings mentioned above. Also... Make sure this is set to allow signups: Admin Home > System Settings > Servers > Server Details Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
symbiote_venom Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Is there a way to send the Server ID in WHMCS? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Variable Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 What do you mean? I thought that your billing system communicates with TCA. Make sure you have the correct datacenter id: Admin Home > System Settings > Datacenters This is where you can find the game id: Admin Home > System Settings > Supported Games If you're asking for WHMCS to auto detect the game IDs and datacenter IDs, then you're out of luck. I'm sure they'll have it. You'll have to request it. If there is enough that wants it then it will happen. However, it's not so bad having to insert it for now. You'll only have to do once.

symbiote_venom Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 It does, I guess I am just confusing things. Haven't had much sleep.
