Request:: RavenShield Lockdown

[GiJoe]

Is due this week so I thought I'd get a head start!

[GiJoe]

Looks like it has been pushed back till the 14th...

[ECF]

I doubt anyone will have a config until after the game comes out at least.

[GiJoe]

Game is out... Anyone get it runnin?

[tangogc]

any one add this config to tcadmin ?

[Chew]

You can't.

 

Couple reasons...

 

The game requires a compatable graphics renderer to be installed (aka geforce > 2 or ati > 9600)

 

Second, there's no multihome support so that's 1 game per actual game box, not ip.

 

Third it uses a launcher, and must be started from this every time the server crashes or is restarted.

 

 

 

They did a horrible job on this server, and it's a shame too, because the game is really decent.

[GiJoe]

Ya found that out the hardway after buying the game...

 

 

 

When are these guys going to learn to create game servers in console mode? Sheesh....

 

 

 

Bet ya GRAW is going to be the same way...

[tangogc]

I see lockdownded.exe, I am going to install now !

 

 

[ECF]

That's not good. As far as the no multihomed problem. it's not really a problem. Simply tag the "use default IP" in the game config setup. That way the games will allways be put on the first IP but with a different port number for each. So you can still put a few on each box.

 

 

 

As for graphics cards etc... You are on your own there

 

 

 

Maybe some people will post more info once they have played with it a bit.

I need the config files so if you get them setup i'll love you long time

[tangogc]

ECF this is the standard default cfg file

 

 

 

<ServerConfig

 

IsUbiOnline = "0"

 

UbiUserName = ""

 

UbiPassword = ""

 

ServerPassword = ""

 

GamePassword = ""

 

TerroristHuntNormal = "1"

 

AutoLaunchTimeout = "300"

 

MinimumNumberPlayers = "1">

 

<Mods/>

 

<IkeGameInfo

 

gameType = "Team Adversarial"

 

gameName = "Ravnos"

 

maxPlayers = "14"

 

isRanked = "0"

 

allowRespawns = "1"

 

numRounds = "5"

 

timeLimit = "300"

 

scoreLimit = "0"

 

numActiveObjectives = "2"

 

autoTeams = "1"

 

autoAssist = "0"

 

allowClasses = "0"

 

allowReticule = "1"

 

showEnemyFlag = "1"

 

swapGoalZones = "0"

 

punkBuster = "0">

 

<MapList>

 

<Map>mp01cl_ta_747.mis</Map>

 

<Map>mp01cl_ta_747.mis</Map>

 

<Map>mp01cl_ta_747.mis</Map>

<Map>mp01cl_ta_747.mis</Map>

 

</MapList>

 

</IkeGameInfo>

 

</ServerConfig>

 

 

 

and this is the command line parameters

 

 

 

 

 

next are some startparameters for the server I think

 

 

 

-modset

 

-autoserve

 

-reportErrors

 

-exportXML

 

-splitscreen

 

-password

 

-rainbowteamsize

 

-client

 

-nocdkey

 

-server

 

-nwmsgdump

 

-exit

 

-buildbinary

 

-mission

I edited your post as you had left in the username and paassword for your ubi login.

 

 

 

Have you gotten a server running?

[tangogc]

lol thanks a lot

 

 

 

No I have prepared the 3,6gb folder as tcadmin directory rules

 

I have added the command line parameters to start it as batch process, but I am waiting the tcadmin config file to try to start the server

 

 

 

I hope in someone on this forum

 

 

 

 

 

 

[ECF]

Just create your own Then you can post it for the other users

[tangogc]

I will do as usual.

 

 

 

But for now I am unable to find the right combination of command line to let's the server start

[Chew]

hope you guys realize the need for a 3d card in your server...

 

I'm so pissed at UBI right now it's unbelivable.

[ECF]

I have heard diffeent stories regarding the dedicated server. We have requested the files from one of our clients to play around with.

 

 

 

This post here doesn't look like it requires a vid card though.

I can assure you ECF, before getting to that point, the game tries to initilize directx and crashes when it doesn't find it.

As we don't have the files yet, I can't comment on the DirectX issue. but I would assume as the other RB6 games, that it simply looks for the DX driver files?

 

 

 

If you install DirectX it should work.

 

 

 

Again, once we get the files I will have to take a look at them. As I could be completely wrong....
