Autokick on Dedicated Server
 

Hi ,

i run autokick v2.11 when i run my server and it works fine....but i've been looking into setting up a dedicated server.

I can run autokick on this as well...but it wont allow me to say anything through the autokick or through the console on the server.

It says "say" unrecognised command even though its in the command list on the console.

As this doesnt work my announcements also dont work....can anyone help???

Also how do you assign a password to a dedicated server so that only specific people can join and where do they enter the password?

Thanks - Dan angel:

yes you can run autokick on dedicated server..just make sure the ip and password are that of the server...

as for the "say" not recognized, I don't know...I haven't seen that problem before

yeah its running now as it happens and the autokick is functioning....but the only prob i have is the announcements and sayings not working which is a bit annoying! fire1:

But cheers for answering....actually you could do me a favour and see if my server appears on the server list as the only people that have joined 2day r the ones that i gave the ip address to...so im thinkin it might not b showing up...if you or anyone has the time to do this for me then cheers!

The server name is: He Who Dares (<300 ping) and its an FFA.

Tnx - Dan angel:

I get off work at 2pm Eastern...I will check then..give me the ip and name and i wil search the list..what type of sserver AA or SH? FFA, TDM, TOW, OBJ???

give me the info and I will see if I can find it..no problem...

sorry didn't see the name or the FFA...but still need the ip thanks

ah cheers but a mate jus tested it and its not showing on the server list for some reason....u can access by ip no probs but it isnt on the list?

Any ideas why?

I norm run the normal server where u can play on the machine thats hosting...but i thought i would try the dedicated option and this seems to hav caused probs 2day...if u have any ideas i would b grateful.

Tnx - Dan.

make sure when you set it up that you put in the cfg file i believe, but don't quote me,

set g_gamespy 1 or set sv_gamespy 1 or something like that to allow it to be seen on gamespy..that usually helps for the in game browser as well

also if you are behind firewall then you would either need to get the ports opened for SH, and you might just run that computer(ded server) on the DMZ...try those first...but be careful with the config files..don't screw them up or you will have to reinstall or find someone with another cfg..maybe copy and rename to another, then just do rcon password exec server01.cfg where server01 is name of cfg

ah ive heard about that set gamespy code b4 i think....yeah i have to run in a DMZ otherwise like u say noone can gain access...so thats already sorted, like i say people can enter if they have the ip jus im not visible on the list so will try that out now....thnx cool:

For mre info on setting up a dedicated server, including what ports shoul be open and forwarded, check out

Look under the guides section

good luck

thanks rudedawg, that site is great..i used it when setting up our server for kelly's heroes, not the one in the warning [KH] thread..that is not us...

ah cheers guys...well i tried that code and entered sv_gamespy 1 in the cfg and that works a treat....people in there now no worries.

Only prob i have to sort now is why the say commands r not recognised...will check that site out...thnx

Dan angel:

I just checked out the site....but i cant see any help for the last prob i have....rudedog u hav any ideas on this one??

Y the Say command wouldnt be recognised in the console on the dedicated server or through the autokick software (crows king autokick v1.2.1)?

Even tho when u type cmdlist in the console it lists "Say" as a command....i cant get me head round it

Cheers Dan cool:

only thing I cant think of is to type rcon say instead of just say. probably wont help but thats all I can think of.

I get the "say unrecognized" error when trying to do rcon from the console without actually joining the server. once I join the server it works. Autokick and ASE work fine.

And if your server is not showing up. Try adding these to your dedicated server.cfg file.. If you haven't created one do so.

set sv_gamespy 1
set ui_dedicated 1
set dedicated 1
set sv_master1 "mohmaster.2015.com"
set sv_master2 "master0.gamespy.com"
set net_port 12203

yeah cheers guys tried all that...and still not workin....the server is showing up now...but i cant get autokick to announce any thing on it and i can say anything meself from autokick or the console on the server so bit of a bugger really....may jus have to go bak to the old way of hostin.
