Ive got the server files for the beta of this game and have request for the game. has anyone came up with a config yet ? Or even know about it.

[dimitrifrom31]

general remark : when making a config request you should post much more info about the game like server files download link, dedicated server how to , etc.

 

I know searching on Google doesnt cost much but since you were too lazy to make your own config (or learn how to) why ppl wouldnt be too lazy to search on google to help you out ?

I'm looking for the dedi files as well, be most interesting to get into that. Since it is based on the UT3 engine, there should be some sort of compatibility?

[ECF]

The compatibility will depend on what type of query system the developers put in place. Standard UT3 engione chnages the query port randomly which means there is no way to query it.

[dustoff]

If got the dedi files however there are some problems. Game is in beta and not using the standard ut3 ports . Also right now it depends on steam running on the box and you must have a account that bought the game. I think once it is out of beta it might work.

 

I tried a ton of work arounds but nothing I did would work.I tried the same trick it took to get Bloody good time to work but still no go.

 

Was hoping someone had got it working is why I made the request.

 

Right now the only way to get the dedi files (that work) is to buy the game for $14 and have access to the beta. But you can not run more than one server.

I think there might be a work around for that, but the game files aren't out yet or that I know of unless you prepurchase like you mention. But I wouldn't want to deal with "beta" anyways since it leads tons of troubles and issues.

 

Just like AvP 3=/

[dustoff]

Yea I am not hosting on Tcadmin yet just running them on the server .

 

Hopefully once they come out of beta they will be on hlds .

[integrapynoy]

Does anyone know if the public dedicated files have been released yet?

 

I have the game from steam, so i know i can run it of those files but wanted to see if the dev company will be releasing public files, making it easier to update if needed.

 

Thanks!

I set it up at XFactor during beta, and it is still an absolute PITA. You are still required to have the full install of the game to run it, but they have said they will try and get the standalone server files out soon.

Care to share your tca config with the rest of us

[trancemode]

anyone who is hosting it, how is the resource usage?

Currently running a couple of test instances now. Seems to be very low, even at max players which is 12. Mem useage is low too.

how much do you considered low?

 

Like an orangebox game? half life 1 game? etc?

At max players (12) each instance uses maybe 3% cpu load on a quad machine.

No config yet?

Hmmm....either I'm doing something wrong with the config, or the files are not ready on Steam yet. This is all I'm getting:

 

Checking bootstrapper version ...

No installation record found at

Retrying in 30 seconds. . .

The Steam update has completed. You may close this window.

 

No files are being downloaded, etc.

I have successfully managed to get it working, and it does update with hldsupdate tool. Two patches came out one after the other, so lucky shot there My question is, which game compatibility would be best to use? When running under TCA, I've gotten several "not responding" reports with server restarts, but running straight on the box, it has no problems, and taking the punishment. Any ideas?

[ViolentCrimes]

anyone want to share the config?

[Choc_Salties]

My config is broken, cant find the commandline variables for hostname, rconpass and privatepass, so it doesnt get generated when the server is deployed, so i'll play around with defining in the config files

[ViolentCrimes]

Anyone get a working config yet.

[CrimsonGT]

I will post ours later. I need to do some cleanup on it as I made it when we were renting servers out during the beta. I have just been updating it as needed, but haven't done a full revamp on it yet.

 

It really isn't difficult to make these, think it took like 10 minutes to make this one the first time around.

I've been doing a bit of research on how MNCDS functions, and how I can integrate that into TCAdmin (As the current version of MNCDS stands).

 

Here are a few notes;

- You will need to install DirectX in order to run MNCDS - http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3

- Multi-Home (being able to specify an IP or port) does not exist. [yet?]

- Port numbers are incremented automatically by the corresponding "instance ID" you give the server.

In my config, custom port 1 is the instance ID. This is then added to the default game port (7777+SID).

For those wondering how to do this with a TCA expression, use this in Custom port 1 (expression section):

Convert.ToInt32(%serverport%) - 7777

- Pretty much everything is controlled from the command-line, except for the admin password.

I will most likely be making a small application or batch file that will read these settings from a text/config file, to make it easier to rent.

 

I'm at work at the moment, so I haven't had the chance to do proper tests and work more out. I will do so when I get home.

[SpikerNoob]

Convert.ToInt32(%serverport%) - 7777

 

How do you do this? The custom port fields only contain up to 5 characters.

custom port 1 expression, it's the section just below the ports.
