ChaosUT2 Server.ini f***ed

Mephisto · Post by **Mephisto** » Mon Nov 22, 2004 6:42 am

Hi,

ok ... As you might have seen in my last post here in the forum, I am working on a ChaosUT2 only server. I have finally broken bei server.ini
Something really is messed up.. (due the bloody UT2Vote installation)

I need your help guys :

My public server should be only a ChaosUT2 Server ...

That means : Standard maps with active Mutator and possible vote to the different other gametypes like Duel and back and forth ...

Could someone please do me a huge favor and post or send me an email (mephisto@ar3s.com) a linux ucc-bin line and a ut2004.ini and maybe some instruction how to set it up (including Webadmin).

And yes, I know, there are PLENTY of documentation but as I already working on the server over 11 hours (check my several posts and timestamp) I would really appreciate if someone could do me this favour ...

As I said : Clean UT installation only with ECE, Patch and ChaosUT2 with Mapvoting including Standard maps with Mutator or Chaos Gametypes.....

I know it is much to ask, but I am kind of desperate about this.

In my case, beneath the standard installation is a folder named ChaosUT2 .... just to let you know ....

Someone else will have to help with mapvote, however, to get a fresh, clean ChaosUT2.ini, do the following:

1) Move your UT2004.ini and ChaosUT2.ini (backup them if you want).
2) Start UT2004 with the -mod="ChaosUT2" switch, without going through the community menu.

This should generate a fresh one, which you can then tweak. If your server is on a different computer, you can then upload this file to it and tweak it there.

For the UCC startup line, this is what i use when i host a small windows server for testing/playing.

Code: Select all

c:\UT2004\system\ucc server CTF-Maul.ut2?game=chaosGames.ChaosCTF?mutator=Chaosgames.ChaosUT -MOD=ChaosUT2

A similar line should work for linux, probably just need to change the address path. Mapvoting setup can be done via webadmin assuming you enable it, though i will admit its not the easiest thing in the world. However, better imo to get a server up and running with webadmin first then add in mapvoting later since its all ini file tweaks/webadmin tweaks.

Ok, I have now did what you said but no new ini has been created ...

This is what happened :

Mephisto,

there should be an example server info file (text document) in the download version. If not we can try to post the info here.

Change your startup line..

Code: Select all

C:\UT2004\System>ucc server DM-Rankin.ut2?game=XGame.xDeathMatch?mutator=ChaosGames.ChaosUT -MOD=ChaosUT2 log=ChaosMut.log

to this...

Code: Select all

C:\UT2004\System>ucc server CTF-*****.ut2?game=chaosGames.ChaosCTF?mutator=ChaosGames.ChaosUT -MOD=ChaosUT2 log=ChaosMut.log

(fill ***** with map name)

The mod switch is probably not understanding the gametype of XGame.xDeathmatch... the mod switch implies that you will be using a chaos gametype.. that should fix your problem.

Ok,

I have tried this as well, but now the password for the webmin is not accepted anymore ...

In UT2004, admin passwords are no longer kept in the ini file for webadmin using ucc batch files

If you are doing single admin you need to do this:

Code: Select all

C:\UT2004\System>ucc server CTF-*****.ut2?game=chaosGames.ChaosCTF?AdminName=blah?AdminPassword=pass?mutator=ChaosGames.ChaosUT -MOD=ChaosUT2 log=ChaosMut.log

and delete the password after AdminPass= in the ini file.
