Please help me set up my server!
Please help me set up my server!
I only have FTP access to my server. I've uploaded all the files, added the paths to [core.system] in my server ini and add the server packages.
I've tried
ServerPackages=../ChaosUT2/System/ChaosGames
ServerPackages=../ChaosUT2/System/ChaosUT
and
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
ServerPackages=ChaosUT
Both crash the server. What Am I doing wrong?

Ok, got the server up (thanks to jeditobe) but when I try to add a gamestyle in the mapvote the chaosUT mutator is not in the list. If I try to add mutator=Chaosgames.ChaosUT manually it once again crashes the server. Do I have to add the paths for the mutator too? If that's the case how are we going to be able to add gametypes in webadmin?
THis all has me so lost I'm ready to pull my hair out. I've been at this for 6 hours between this and uploading the files. Here are the game styles I want in the MV
Chaos KOTH
Chaos Team Koth
Chaos CTF
ONS with chaos weapons
Instagib DM
Im sorry if I sound frustrated but I am, I just don't feel the documentation is geared towards people who run servers via FTP and don't have any other type of shell or server access. If I missed some documentation, I apologize.

Sorry for the problem flak.. Not sure if you have or will have problems with other mods that require a mod switch if you are doing FTP stuff.
Anyways...
Try moving the ChaosGames.ucl to the main UT2004\System folder and see if that fixes the gametypes not showing issue.

I make Darth Vader look like a teenage punk with a lightsaber.
I set up my server the following:
You need the following additional paths under [Core.Engine] in the server.ini:
CacheRecordPath=../ChaosUT2/System/*.ucl
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Animations/*.ukx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Maps/*.ut2
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Sounds/*.uax
Paths=../ChaosUT2/StaticMeshes/*.usx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/System/*.u
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Textures/*.utx
Paths=../ChaosUT2/Players/*.upl
not more and not less
The ChaosUT.ucl must be in the standard CacheRecordPath, the ChaosGames.ucl can remain in the ChaosUT2/System folder
Just for the gametypes you wont need any additional Serverpackages, it shandled by custom gametypes automatically afaik...
When the mut shall running with a non chaos gametype, then you need the following serverpackages:
ServerPackages=ChaosUT
ServerPackages=ChaosGames
Also don't forget to add the chaos configurations for gametypes, etc. to your server.ini...
I hope this helps, at least my server runs this way...

Well, is the ChaosUT.ucl in the right CacheRecord path?
And to set up chaos gametype in mapvote it should look like this for your setup:
GameConfig=(GameClass="ChaosGames.ChaosCTF",Prefix="CTF",Acronym="ChaosCTF",GameName="Chaos Capture The Flag",Mutators="ChaosGames.ChaosUT",Options=)
GameConfig=(GameClass="ChaosGames.ChaosKotH",Prefix="KOTH",Acronym="KOTH",GameName="Chaos King of the Hill",Mutators="ChaosGames.ChaosUT",Options=)
GameConfig=(GameClass="ChaosGames.ChaosTeamKotH",Prefix="KOTH",Acronym="TKOTH",GameName="Chaos Team Kings Of The Hill",Mutators="ChaosGames.ChaosUT",Options=)
GameConfig=(GameClass="Onslaught.ONSOnslaughtGame",Prefix="ONS",Acronym="ONS",GameName="Chaos Onslaught",Mutators="ChaosGames.ChaosUT",Options=)
Have you tried this manually?
At least it shows up in my mapvote window on server...

[quote="deus.ex.machina"]Well, is the ChaosUT.ucl in the right CacheRecord path?
ChaosUT2.ucl is in the main system folder with CacheRecords.ucl
I have no ChaosUT.ucl. Did you mean ChaosUT2.ucl or am I missing a file?
The files I have in the ChaosUT2\System folder are
ChaosUT.u
ChaosGames.u
ChaosGames.ucl
defuser.ini
default.ini
In the main System folder I have:
ChaosGames.det
ChaosGames.int
ChaosUT2.ucl
ChaosUT.int
ChaosUT.det
ChaosUT2.ucl is in the main system folder with CacheRecords.ucl
I have no ChaosUT.ucl. Did you mean ChaosUT2.ucl or am I missing a file?

Flak, thank you so much for not giving it up yet. I realize you're going thru a Lot of effort here to get it set up the way you need.
I'm just hopeful that between FurrySound and deus and the other folks here, that you can get a setup you like before too long, cause I'm looking forward to playing there myself.
Thanks again, and good luck!
