Crysis configs

[DaveTurnbull]

I'm still pre-loading Crysis, but some people have already got the game in various locations, so I thought it wise to make a thread for Crysis configs!

It is due out pretty soon. However it appears to be another ranked game, so I don't think there will be much of a market for unranked servers.

What's confusing though is that Crytek said like one million times it would not have persistent statistics. I wish they would just clarify it.

[Mr.Flibble]

i have it.. but i cant find the dedicated configs.. :S

 

the layout is abit wierd

[nosit1]

I can't seem to find any type of config... The only thing I can match together is that it's loading user profiles

[HIS-MOTHER]

Might be another fubar like MOH Airborne.

[Mr.Flibble]

yeah, i know what you mean.. it looks to use hte user profile, but i dont actually see any type of MP config located in there.. well one that has more then 2 lines..

 

ai_SystemUpdate = "0"

ca_aimIKFadeout = "0"

I don't think it will be big. I found the beta annoying. Spent most of my time walking around and having to kill 3 people just to buy 1 rifle only to lose it when I died and had to start over.

[DaveTurnbull]

Hmmm, people are saying that all the dedicated server files etc are coming out on the release date. I guess I misinterpretated that for coming with the game. The game is officialy released on the 16th in the US, so maybe thats the date to look out for.

[Todd Holley]

yay, the same day I get my new dallas machines online!

[ECF]

I am sure they will have an unranked version as well. I too found the MP beta annoying and boring as hell.

LMAO!

Got Crysis now, and apparently you have to upload the entire game for servers. Kind of a bummer, but at least the game is not out in America yet - plenty of time to get the files up and ready.

 

Btw, I think Crysis just has a steeper learning curve than other games. Once you start using all the suit modes effectively, forming explosive traps, and working with people as a team, it becomes incredible fun.

 

I was playing with 6 people in a Beta using Vent, and we filled two Hummers and were driving around the map capturing and defending bases. It's like a much better version of Battlefield 2 basically, well, at least in my opinion.

[Mr.Flibble]

do you know where the server configs are.. or if they exsist... By hte looks.. we haveto create them from scratch, but there is now documents on doing this, let alone any help with anything to do with dedicated servers

[Steve-TGM]

I installed a copy of the game on my personal pc and it created a "Game Log" witch pulled system data into it, plus their are alot of config files in the Game Folder. Havent gotten it to work yet...

I guess the best bet is to wait till the 16th - the official release of Crysis. I expect all server-related stuff to be out around then, as they're also releasing the SDK within a couple of days of that.

[Mr.Flibble]

a guy on another forum told us that in My docs\My games\Crysis is the location of the server.cfg, but my installation doesn't have that.. only the profiles saved for playing hte client of the game.. I hvae run the dedicated server, and it didn't generate a default config

Ditto.

 

Wish EA/Crytek would give some sort of clarification or something!

[Mr.Flibble]

well.. i sused some of it out and now i have a server up.. What i did was create a game in the GUI from my side, put the settings in i wanted, select dedicated and run..

 

this generated a server.cfg file in mydocs\my games\crysis\config

 

the map rotation is a XML file in mydocs\my games\crysis\Profiles\Default\levelrotation

 

i then copied the new files to the dedicated server in the same locations.

 

then exec like this in cmd

 

C:\GameInstalls\Crysis\Bin32>CrysisDedicatedServer.exe +exec "C:\Documents and S

ettings\Administrator\My Documents\My Games\Crysis\Config\server.cfg"

 

then in the console you have to tell which map to run.

 

map multiplayer/ps/shore

 

this will kick it off..

[Steve-TGM]

Excellent, tyvm! I will get working on trying that....

[DaveTurnbull]

I always get the error "The application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect"

[ECF]

Here is a working config.

Crysis.txt

[DaveTurnbull]

Thanks for that, now I just have to get the actual CrysisDedicatedServer.exe file running!

 

Oops, nevermind. Forgot to install C++ Redistributable.

[Mr.Flibble]

i got that error above

The application has failed to start because the application configuration is incorrect

when i tried the dedicated in the 64bit bin.. even though im running Windows 2003 R2 64... :S Works fine in the 32bit bin..

 

ill try the TCadmin script tonight

What you are forgetting is EA bought out Crytek after the release was ready. The demo is great. I'm sure the game is too. Now that EA owns the franchise I'm sure it's only downhill from here for the game.
