how do i make LOG file?to use with aestate!

heey peeps!
I want to use aestate,. really nice state proggy for mohaa!
and it says that i have to take mohaalog file.
how do i generate log file?
and where are they??
I have to starter my ded server. and play some rounds b4 the log file is made, right?

peace!

You need to add this to your server.cfg in the mohaa/main directory
//Logging. This is needed for Stats - Do Not Remove
seta g_log "qconsole.log"
seta logfile 3
seta g_logsync 1

You also need to add:
+set developer 1
To your command line on the server.
This is the only way to to get log files for mohaa with obituaries.
You will have to get whoever host your server to change the command line.

Anytime you shut the server down, you must grab a copy of the log file.
The log file is rewritten each time the server restarts.
Does anyone know a way around the log file being copied over after the server restarts?

Maaan! Druid maan! you are the MAAN!
and you!? you are the maan!!! the man you are!!
thanx alot, thanx a bucnh! thanx a mill!

Peace!

The buffering options for the logfile don't seem to work. Drop this into your MOHAA directory as moh.bat and edit as needed.

@echo off
echo DogMeat's NeverEnding MoHAA
:TOP
echo Backing up Log
cd main
copy qconsole.lo1 *.lo2
copy qconsole.lo0 *.lo1
copy qconsole.log *.lo0
cd ..
echo Starting MoHAA
start /wait MOHAA_server.exe +set ui_console 1 +set dedicated 1 +set cheats 0 +set developer 1 +exec servertfo.cfg
echo Restarting
goto TOP

ok i did it! now waht?
i have 3 loo files, and a qconslole.log

Hi Dgmeat again!!

I managed to merge the log files!
but i still get nothing out in MLG when i convert with paraese.exe.

only a 60byte mlg file! with nthign in it!

what should i do?

Are you using the -moh switch when you run preAEs.exe on the log file.
Example... if your log file is called whatever.log
You would use
prease.exe -moh *.log


Hope this helps

Or he could even make a continuous log, time and date stamped per session....
(date/time method for 9x based DOS.... NT based DOS prolly ez'r to steal time via PROMPT)

Damn! Y'know, this really pisses me off. I don't have access to set batch files to run on my server and nothing I do seems to create a log file with kill lines in it. And I have this guy promising me a copy of a mod/app that will work no matter what server you're using, but he's yet to mail it to me. I've been waiting for some time now to get this working, but so far NOTHING. mad:

If you have FTP access to the server I could write you a lil file that goes off across the net, gets the log, disconnects and appends it to a master log on YOUR computer. (if need be)

I would bet just about anything you dont have developer +1 on the command line. This is the only reason I know of that would give you a log without the kills.

good info man. ta

HI Druid!!

I use preaese.exe -moh /logs mohaa.log

it creates a 60 byte .mlg file!.
when i use aestst.exe on the mlg file, it says that the file ie empty!

ok! I'll test with the other dude's bat file method!

let's what happend!

Peace

hmmmm
 

hey dudes!

I just noticed the i didn't write
set developer 1 on the mohaa-server.exe!!!
maybe that is! ok i will try with the old bat file method again !

later

nope!! even i have typed +set developer 1 in the command line!
it made a log fiel without kills!
what i did was, start my ded serve. jion it. and do some suicides!!
but still
when I preaes the log file, it says FRag lines: (nothing )

ok I wil try with the new bat file method!
where it creates master.log

good luck to my self!

Welll bad news again!!
i tried with this batch file!

Re: hmmmm
 

maybe you had a typo.

did you also have
seta g_log "qconsole.log"
seta logfile 3
seta g_logsync 1
in your server2.cfg

The bad thing about the way you have to do logs on MOHAA, is it logs everything.
I end up with a 30mb log file in just a week.

BTW did you ever change the localization text, for different kill statements to be said in chat. If you did change the kill statements, that would be your problem.

hi druid. this is how my server2.cfg looks like!

look ok , right??
btw what does the command " fps 20 " do??
what if i delete it?

anyways!
yes I'm running a modified localizaton txt.!? i have donwloaded!
with lots of swears N shit*L*. do u think that is the problem?
if this is the problem, then yould you suggest i delete my "global "foldeR??

peace! eek:

Actually, it's all set up just like you said here and in the other thread. But I still don't get any frag lines. What am I missing?

fps 20 set the max frames per second the server sends the client.

Sorry SonicSpinner and Captain_McCusker.
I'm officially stumped on what your problem is.
I know the 2 most common problems with log files not having the frag info. Is not having +set developer 1 on the command line. Or having custom kill statements in the localization.txt.
Since these are not your problems, you'll have to wait for someone else to come along and help you out.

Hi Druid!
Actuaally I havent tested out with deleteing the local.txt yet!

It might be the problem solver! *G*

could u please explain more about

"sv_fps 20 "

coz i didn't really get it!.
why is it that it alows max 20 FPS per client? that ain't good, is it?

Peace! ed:

Have repeatedly tryed to make a log file. I am not getting anything at all wrtten into them

// Logs

seta g_log "gamesobj.log"
seta logfile "3"
seta g_logsync "1"

I have +set developer 1 in my start command

but NOTHING is getting written to my log files. mwah:

Try searching on http://www.mohadmin.com in the Guides section. Read the guide titled Game Chat In Console.

I have attempted these options and still nothing. Any other thoughts please.

I too am running 2 dedicated linux versions of MOHAA. And no logfiles are being written. This is what i have

Start File Contains:
+set developer 2 +set logfile 3 &> /path/.mohaa/main/gamestdm.log

Config File Contains:
// Logs

seta g_log "/path/.mohaa/main/gamestdm.log"
seta logfile "3"
seta g_logsync "1"


And no options that i have come across so far have fixed this. If anyone can help... would be most appreciated.

OK.. i finally got it to start writing the kills and chat into the log file. But it is still only writing it to the qconsole.log

I am noticing that after i restart the servers each time.. it does create the other log files (i.e. gamestdm.log , gamesobj.log) but it does not write to them. It only writes to the qconsole.log
