Server Config and Other Info, PLZ?
 

Rude, and all you other server admin wizes: Could you please help me find info on setting up the config for a server? A lot of these commands are confusing to me. I'm also looking for a list of rcon commands, and is there a way to add someone to the banned list in Autokick from console?

Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Thnx

I put together a "starter" server config file for folks - it is copied below. For a list of rcon commands for Quake 3, go here: http://www.quakeworld.com/q3console/

Autokick doesn't work from the console. I am kicking around some ideas to make it work from within the game (and to also selectively give out admin priveledges), but the list of stuff I want to do is too big for what I have time to do. We'll have to see how it shakes out.

// This is a generic server configuration file for MoHAA
// It should be called as part of your server's startup command, for example
//
// c:\program files\EAGAMES\MOHAA\mohaa_server.exe +set ui_console 1 +set dedicated 1 +exec server.cfg
//
// You should change the info here to suit your needs. If you want to comment
// out a line, use two forward slashes. For more info on running a server, check
// out Bull's Dedicated Server Guide at alliedassault.com.

Hey, CK, thanks a lot for the help! I think I finally got the config straightened out. I just need to experiment at this point, I think, to figure out exactly how I want it.

Truth is that I'm very impressed with RudeDog's server and would like it very similar to that. Rude: I got your message from Red, I'll e-mail you later about the server.

Thanks again, guys!
