Need help compiling the biggest MOH rcon list
 

All right guys, I need some help . It seems like the most asked about question is,
"where can I find a complete rcon list for MOH"
Well I for one can not find one. So I figured we should all chip in and start one.

Please try and keep this to rcon commands only. This way I can compile the list and then make a document. I will then send it off to dodd and flipside at TMT, to post in the guides section and make a sticky here at aa.com.

We need to verify all command also. If someone finds a mistake. Please quote them in your post. Also you may see some left out info. If you can help fill that in, then please do. Then give the correct syntax or command. I also want an explanation so people know what the command is doing.

Please follow my format.

I will start off with some of the basic ones. We need everything from server commands to custom server settings via rcon, like gravity.

Thanks guys.

If this has been done please provide a link, thanks

Here is the best reference I've found for Q3A based games, of course a few of these don't work in MoHAA but it's still a ton of good info.
[url:39c68]http://www.planetquake.com/q3console/[/url:39c68]
Hope this helps, wish I had time to actually contribute more for this worthwhile project, forgive me while I go back to working on DMz Dogtag. evil:

Not a problem DogMeat.

I appreciate any help. And look forward to your next release.

I think your talent is needed more on your current project then this.

what exactly are you trying for with this format?
"usage: rcon kick x - x"

would be a lot more healpful if it actually represented what needed to by typed.... ie

usage:
rcon kick [playername]
rcon kick [clientnumber]

rcon say [message]

etc

"x - x" doesnt actually seem to represent anything other than it should be in 2 parts separated by a hyphen.

r3mix

x represents a variable. Think of the hyphen as a separator. You are right I should use something other then a hyphen.

I will clean it up once I get some rest. this was a rcon marathon.

oOo:

I think what's more important is that he's taken a bit of time to do this. Thanks to your post, now people will understand if they haven't already picked it up. Great job, Rude and thanks for all of that info. I'm going to be watching this thread quite a bit to see if there's anything added I didn't know (and some of what you posted I didn't know).

Thanks ChickenBoo

I took r3mix's advice and cleaned it up.

Any feed back is welcome. I hope I didn't do this for nothing. oOo:

I will leave this up for a couple of days before combining them into one post. I will then submit it to both TMT and AA.com.

BTW dude i hated those sticknotes we used to have here that were half filled with irrelevant conversations and even flamings.... so ill delete all my posts outta this in a few hours and u can do same to keep it tidy.

r3mix

That's why I lock them now. If someone wanted to 'discuss" the sticky they can create another post. I will then edit the locked version. Thus not cluttering it up with useless info.

How does my rcon stuff look now? better biggrin:

yeah looks better
dont seem to have a delete option on my posts anymore so please just delete them anytime you want.

r3mix

set
Usage: rcon set [variable] [value]
Sets the value of a variable.

seta
Usage: rcon seta [variable] [value]
Sets the value of a variable and the archive flag so that the value will be saved to the user's default.cfg file to be loaded each time the game is loaded.

sets
Usage: rcon sets [variable] [value]
Sets the value of a variable and the server flag so that the variable is transmitted to clients upon connect. Is implemented in MoHAA but does not seem to function properly.

toggle
Usage: rcon toggle [variable]
Toggles the value of a flag variable. For example, "rcon toggle g_teamdamage" would turn friendly fire off if it was currently on.

setu
Usage : rcon setu [variable] [value]
Sets the variable with the userinfo flag, so it will be transmitted from a client to a server while connecting.
Caveat : Not tested, however I suspect that like sets, it is not functioning properly.

cmdlist

Will return all know rcon commands. Optionally, if you put a single letter it will only return commands starting with that letter. Not all work though.

cvarlist
Usage : rcon cvarlist [letter]

And for the local only section:

vid_restart

Restarts the MoHAA video system, which will fix many graphical errors such as invisible players, frozen players, and invisible gun/hand.
Caveat : After issuing this command the screen may blank or show the Windows Desktop for a moment, this is normal.

Oh and I had to laugh, only noticed this a minute ago:
g_obj_axistext2 : [TFO]DogMeat Map Fix -motd for current map
g_obj_axistext3 : TFO.ServeBeer.com 1.2 -motd for current map
Thanks for the advertising biggrin:

roundlimit
Usage: rcon set roundlimit [Number; Default = 0]
This will change the time limit for each round on a round based game.

This is a local command only

centerprint
usage: centerprint [text]
This command sends text to the center of the screen. Substitutes the non-working "echo" command.

maggot.se

Very nice, Thanks guys for all the help. Hopefully this list will help a lot of the server admins understand what can and can not be done via rcon.

Hey Maggot.se does that get broadcasted to all players? If so I like that command.

I learned something new guys, Thanks

DogMeat, I think my next version will be local console stuff as well. As this is another piece of info lacking around the MOH community

Thanks again everyone for helping out.

wow this is a nice list . thanks

Great job guy's
 

Thanks for putting time into this Rude. cool:
Now maybe I can throw out all the little scraps of paper with notes on them.
thanks to CK and Dogmeat as well.

set net_port
usage: rcon set net_port [port number]
This is used to set the game servers port number

set net_noipx
usage: rcon net_noipx [0 or 1 ]
When playing on a private network with ipx you can enable MOH to use the IPX protocal 0=no 1=yes

Ahh, sorry guys, I'm blind - Didn't noticed that it was only about rcon's. Prob sleeping far to little now-a-days *lol* =)

No problem Maggot

That's my next project anyway's you and DogMeat are a step ahead

Here's a couple fun ones.

Freeze 5* *= Changable value
Freezes all players on the server for what ever amount of time you put.
( Good for getting the undevided attention of clanmates/ Clients)


Crash

If you need an explination of this you need to be blown up. eatthis:

[quote:92f34]Freeze 5 * *= Changable value
Freezes all players on the server for what ever amount of time you put.
( Good for getting the undevided attention of clanmates/ Clients) [/quote:92f34]

I've tried this, but the console says 'Unknown command "freeze"'

Could you please explain further? Cause this would be a really useful command sometimes... angel:

Thanks in advance

-----------------------

EDIT: I tried it on a different server and it appears to work correctly (!). I will try it again on the first one.

sv_walkspeed #
usage: rcon sv_walkspeed "0-inf"
Sets the walk speed Default is 150. Very fun command because you can set it superfast and do just about anything :)


sv_runspeed #
usage: rcon sv_runspeed "0-inf"
Sets the run speed Default is 250


sv_crouchmult #
usage: rcon sv_crouchmult "0-inf"
Sets the crouch speed Multiplyer Default is 0.6. Set this to 0 and you cant move while crouching. Set it to 1 and you move just as fast as standing.



I believe theres one for jump hight as well but I'm unable to locate it :(

Thanks for the help guys

Just thought I'd help the cause by giving it a nice little shameless

*BUMP* oOo:

Unlock your FPS by typing in console com_maxfps 999

If your computer is up to it, is runs over 200 on mine...i never got higher then 99, then i tried this command and it runs over 100 fps easily...pretty handy on The Bridge (low fps map)...on v2 your fps is amazing...(only if you have a good up to date computer)...i also tried it on a 700mhz Duron/ 384 mb sd-ram and GF2 GTS but the increase of fps was not that high..(maybe 15 more) but on my own machine (1600mhz, 512 ddr-ram, GF3 ti 200 my fps exploded to in the hundreds...try it out...

Thanks, Dvol, but we are looking for rcon commands, I will add yours to my local console command list I'm working on also.

Rude, once this is all done, you should make it into a HTML doc, and add it to the FAQ, like DogMeat did with the port guide.

I was thinking the same thing Joe

Now that's scary biggrin:

[quote:25ce0]Freeze 5 * *= Changable value
Freezes all players on the server for what ever amount of time you put.
( Good for getting the undevided attention of clanmates/ Clients) [/quote:25ce0]

this is rcon command only good if you are running a server. also dont forget the value

OK this isnt a command But it is usefull finding them, In the console if you want to find exact command for example SV_walkspeed just type sv_w and hit the TAB button and it will scroll through all of the choices that have sv_w* in them. You can also just type SV_ and it will scroll through the SV_* choices it will work for any letter or command in there

I forgot
Timescale .x
ex Timescale.2
I can't take credit for this but I learned it from the bullet time mod
I only works with cheat on but it will slow the game down in slow motion depending on the value of .x
1.0 is default and it goes down from there, it just makes a good slow-motion effect but the best use I found for it was making screen shots during heavy action

Thanks bowman.

I will leave this up 2 more days, then hopefully by the weekend I will put the list together all pretty and send it out to the MOH sites and post it in here

Thanks to all who helped with this project

Hey Rude,

Maybe you would like to check this before publishing your guide:

http://216.239.37.100/search?q=cache:jb ... s&ie=UTF-8

The original page is no more, that's why I put the google cache link. There's nothing really new, but I found it interesting however...

Regards

Nice find. This is why I wanted to compile a MOH rcon list as some of the quake ones do not work.

I will go over that list and see if I can pull some other MOH rcon commands out of it.

Thanks

I just have to say guys, you are doing a great service to the community here. Deffinately going above and beyond the call of duty. Thank you!!

I did some tests yesterday, and it appears that when you're connected to a server the rconaddress is bypassed, and every rcon command is sent to the server you're connected to (which is really bad for my interests eek: ). Maybe you would like to try it and add that piece of info just in case.

Regards
