Server Administration (Page 2 of 5)

A dedicated server will always result in a command prompt window on windows. Currently you can't interact with server directly afaik so in order to run a server your way, you have to pass some parameters thru your startup line.

Step 1:

Create a text file, add in:
rtcwcoop_ded.exe +exec server.cfg

Change .txt to .bat - Note that you may need to unhide file extensions in order to do that (google on how to do it..).
Once you created your batch file move to step 2.

Step 2:
Create server.cfg inside your coop\main folder. In it you configure-set stuff the way you want..for some examples of a config you can check this thread: http://www.rtcwcoop.com/forum/viewtopic.php?id=35

Once you''ve set all the way you want..simply save config..and run the batch file you created in step one. After server is created, you can connect to it and use either rcon command to change stuff on server, or by using admin commands if you configure it in that kinda way. To get more details about specific commands you can also check here: http://code.google.com/p/bzzwolfsp/w/list

It's kinda confusing I know, but that's how it goes. Maybe someone will come around and pass you his batch file along with a server config so it's easier for you to start..but I sadly atm haven't got any.

really, just play on a public server

Here's batch file and a sample server config - note that server config is probably outdated so check the link above as well as wiki pages.

Instructions:
Extract zip inside your coop directory.
- server.bat should reside in same level as rtcwcoop_ded.exe.
- server.cfg should be inside main folder.

If you wish to edit batch file, click it once then click with right button and select edit.
As for server.cfg, open it with notepad and edit it.

That's all there is.

i create server but i can see it only in lan why?

where i write them?

In the batch or console. I can't remember the syntax for batch but with a shortcut it is +set net_ip "0.0.0.0" replaced with your ip. I think it is same for batch. Check your ip with myip.dk.

i dont have it can you please send it to me ? i apreciate what are you doing guys

k i found it now what?

start a server, until it fails, and then give us that logfile again
