MW3 confgs

[peace]

Change path for config files to "admin" instead of "players2".

[gemcneill]

Here is a thought, instead of rar/zipping up the entire folder instead leave it as a folder. So instead of downloading the entire 13 gig file it would download 13 gigs of files, if I understand how tcadmin will work if there is no zip or rar file named that. It will take longer the first time around, but when new updates come out, it should be much faster. What are everyones thoughts on this?

[Spitfire]

Does the tcadmin config need to be changed at all here that you provided Peace. I think the server.cfg file location in default files needs to be changed right?

 

You Can change the Location yourself?

As we host only 1 game type on each machine we have no archives but only folders (it reduce CPU usage on new server install) with Download Game Files from FTP Server deactivated.

[gemcneill]

Peace can you please post your most current config with the changes. I thought I had your latest one but the server.cfg shows to be in main folder instead of the players folder, which is now the admin folder

[WYD-KEN]

When I use the TCA file posted earlier the server won't load

+set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 209.105.235.24 +set net_queryPort 27016 +set net_masterServerPort 27015 +set net_port 27017 +set net_authPort 8766 +set sv_config server.cfg +set sv_maxclients 18 +start_map_rotate

 

But I can over ride the command line with below and it works? Whats the difference.

 

+set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 209.105.235.24 +set net_queryPort 27301 +set net_port 27302 +set net_masterServerPort 27300 +set net_authPort 27303 +set sv_maxclients 18 +set sv_config server.cfg +start_map_rotate

[peace]

Here's latest config that is in use (change comments in config templates cause now they are on russian). But i guess config will be changed again when everything with ports is clear. Because there's no console in main menu and i cant check what port is actually the game connection port. HLSW and GameTracker need different ports to monitor server. Its kinda messed up.

Wen I use that cfg 20min or so the servers just stop working in tca any one getting this to? Or how can I fix this

[KevinJ]

For me it seems settings below 16 clients do not work via command line?

Or is it possible to have less than 16 for max clients?

[peace]

We have servers with less than 16 maxplayers. It all works fine through cmd.

[NothinG]

I found disabling Game Compatibility and adding a Custom Port 3 for net_authPort worked. I also had to force all MW3 servers to a single IP because one of the ports is using 0.0.0.0 (all of the IP's allotted to that server). 65k port range, we really aren't upset...just had to rearrange some port ranges for specific games.

 

Here is my new CMD line with everything modified (as defined above).

+set dedicated 2 +set net_ip %serverip% +set net_queryPort %serverport% +set net_masterServerPort %customport2% +set net_port %customport1% +set net_authPort %customport3% +set sv_config server.cfg +set sv_maxclients %slots% +set sv_maxplayers %slots% +start_map_rotate

 

Enjoy!

[rustgame]

you could post a final version of your working configuration please?

[peace]

It was posted above by me. With that config we already have few servers running on different IPs on 1 machine. Also it was tested with 3 servers on the same IP.

[KevinJ]

Anyone getting rare but random "not responding" emails for MW3 or CoD4 in TCAdmin?

It started the day MW3 launched, and I thought it was just GameSpy being overloaded, but it's still going.

[cass]

anyone got a patch zip for the server update that was out yesterday?

[peace]

There's nothing new through Hldsupdatetool since 11 november update.

[omnigenus]

There are changes to some MP files...i don't give a damn about HLDSUPDATE tool and what it thinks

When this update was released? There's no news on sledgehammer site and twitter, neither on Steam.

[omnigenus]

Yesterday...my Steam MW3 game was updated and those are MP files that were changed

[peace]

server exe was changed but it has exact the same 3,938,816 bytes size that is in hldsupdatetool files update on 11 november.

[omnigenus]

Server exe file was not changed... mp exe file was

 

EDIT: i don't care if there are real changes in there or not..must say that

[omnigenus]

If Peace is out there, We need your help

 

We've had servers up and running then our had to replace hardware and did a full reinstall of TCA. We backed up our game files and replaced them along with the working config files of the game (MW3 posted by peace). Now when we launch servers they stay up for maybe 5 minutes then crash and I have no idea why. This never happened before and the configs and templates are in place correctly to the best of my knowledge. The servers launch, stay up for about 5 minutes, then unexpectedly crash.

 

Our main tech (Spitfire on theses forums) is away until Sunday but the problem is we need support for our pro teams now. We have some major online cups and competitions in the next few days and without these servers functioning correctly we're up the river.Its vital to our organization that we have these up and functional in the next day or so and we'd be willing to compensate anyone who is willing to help us fix this crash problem.

 

This is our command line:

+set dedicated 2 +set net_ip $[service.IpAddress] +set net_queryPort $[service.CustomPort1] +set net_masterServerPort $[service.GamePort] +set net_port $[service.CustomPort2] +set net_authPort 8766 +set sv_config server.cfg +set sv_maxplayers $[service.Slots] +start_map_rotate

 

Ports Used:

 

Game Port: 27015
Query Port: 27015	
RCon Port: 	27016
Custom Port 1: 27017	
Custom Port 2: 27018

The template we're using was posted by Peace and i read something about him having a russian localization. I don't know if that's the problem or why these servers keep crashing minutes after creation but I'm inviting you to help us in any way that you can.

 

As i said before, it is VITAL that we have these functioning for the many teams we support throughout Europe and without them, we'll lose our competitive edge and ANY and ALL help or insight would be highly appreciated.

[dimitrifrom31]

did you try reinstalling one of these servers (basically u only have to backup config folder, reinstall and restore)

test after reinstall before and after recovering config
