CoD2 and Mod Extreme 2.4 dont start

[slmvectra]

Hi all,
First, sorry for my bad english.
I am Jose, i am from Spain

Well, i have installed with cpanel GS the game CoD2.
After, i have uploaded the Mod Extreme to the directory where the game is installed.

Following the instructions that i have found about CoD2 and Mod Extreme, im not able to run the server from the server.cfg of the mod, it always start from the default server.cfg

if i try to change the start command line, the server always start from the server.cfg that there is into the folder main, no changes are saved.

Somebody can help me?



thank you

If you need to use a custom startup command line, try this:

First see what your current command line looks like. In this example my user is "cpgs", the game is "cod2" and the server install # is 0 :

: cat /var/cpanel/gameserv_saved/cpgs_cod2_0

/home/cpgs/.gameservers/cod2_0/cod2_lnxded +set dedicated 2 +ttycon 0 +set net_IP 208.74.121.106 +set net_port 27011 +set fs_homepath /home/cpgs/.gameservers/cod2_0/ +exec server.cfg +exec maps.cfg +map_rotate &> cod2.log & echo $! > cod2.pid &

Then you can copy that the the unique command line (either copy it from ssh and paste it into ssh or just copy the file)

cp /var/cpanel/gameserv_saved/cpgs_cod2_0 /var/cpanel/gameserv_saved/cpgs_cod2_0_unique

Set the flag that (by creating an empty file) that tells cPGS to use the custom line instead:

touch /var/cpanel/gameserv_saved/cpgs_cod2_0_useuniq

Edit your unique command line (again, either in WHM in the "Manage Game" options) or from the shell to reflect the alternate server.cfg or whatever you need. Then whenever you start that game install for that user, it will ignore whatever they have set and use the custom line.

If you need help just getting CoD2 with the Extreme mod working, maybe someone else who has used it can help, I've never touched it

i have the mod in the same directory of "main" folder of the game in a folder named "slm"

but no, not run

when i enter to the cpSG and see the comand line it is in this way, (no changes allowed after use Putty)



Command line
/home/cod2slm/.gameservers/cod2_0/cod2_lnxded +set dedicated 2 +ttycon 0 +set net_IP +set net_port +set fs_homepath /home/cod2slm/.gameservers/cod2_0/ +exec server.cfg +exec maps.cfg +map_rotate

i see thet into the Advanced Configuration Editor link in cpGS there is a server configuration and in the last line is this:

// NOTE! DO NOT Specify "map_rotate" here, unless your command line for COD2 shortcut does not Contain "+ map_rotate".
// NOTE! Command Line Should Read: "C:\......\CoD2MP_s.exe" +set fs_game YOUR MOD FOLDER NAME +set dedicated 2 +exec Server.cfg +map_rotate
// NOTE! The ( +set fs_game YOUR MOD ) fs_game "folder" in this case "YOUR MOD" can have the name of anything. Nick name perhaps?
// NOTE! If Both MAP ROTATE Are Present, Server WILL Skip First Map In Rotation. It rotates twice. First in command line, then here.
//map_rotate
// Mods, Execute your Server Mod Configuration Files here.
//exec MOD_SERVER_CFG here


but i dont know how it works.

any sugestion or help?

Put in a ticket with the exact startup line you need for the mod to work and I'll set it up as an example so you can see what was done. Just mentioned "cPGS ticket for Darren" in the subject of the ticket so the techs will know to send it my way.

Here is how I got the Extreme mod to work for my COD4 server.

In WHM, I installed the game. Using the default command line. Then under manage game, I added +set fs_game mods/extreme to the append command line.

My directory is cod4_1/mods/extreme. Notice the where the mod is located?
It should not be located in the main folder.

Then I logged into cpanel for the gameserver and saved the IP and Port.
