Marcus(JSA) Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 First things first, and in the proper order. First you need a good, and upto date mod - I personally recommend the new JA+ 1.9a mod, available from: japlus.fragism.com. Once you've downloaded the mod extract it and install it into GameData in your Jedi Academy game file, overwriting any previous JAPlus files. Then read ALL the documents provided in the JAPlus mod zip about installing, admin, history, etc and get a darn good idea of what it is and how it works. Sliders catalogue of information there provides some good stuff for new server creators. Learn about Bitrate values and toy with the Bitrate Calculator by Accident in the zip. These are what control and limit the Force Powers you want, or Guns, as well as a few other things, Admin Commands being no exception. Then have a browse through these LucasForums, and try to take as many notes as you feel will be helpful to you in setting up your server and running it in future. Tru to get hold of a piece of software called "Rcon Unlimited" from JK3Files, which I've even located for you: JK3Files Link to Rcon Unlimited Once you've done all that - and it should only take you a few hours, or a couple of days if you really want to learn a lot - you will be able to produce a good server.cfg. If you find the whole thing overwhelming don't worry, it's not easy at first, and there are a lot of strange concepts what with it being a complex game. But as you asked, heres a copy of my server.cfg recently updated for JA+ 1.9a mod - please note that this is for a rented server, and not a server hosted from my home PC - some of the settings may be slightly different to what you may require. NOTE: For those of you reading this who are server owners already - yes, this looks nothing like the standard server.cfg layout - but it runs very smoothly and I have no complaints! //-----Admin

Kurgan Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 I run a server from JediServers.com and have for almost 2 months. In that time I've only had to ban about 5 people. I've never used an admin mod on my server! My server is almost always full and people (and I) have lots of fun there. And surprise, this server is virtually rule free. All kills are legal. I don't allow killtrackers and I'm a stickler for even teams, but that's about it. Just so you know, Admin Mods (like JA+ Mod, JA Reloaded, etc) are NOT needed to run a server! In fact, it would be better not to use one. The only reason to have one of these (other than a longer IP banning list if you really need to ban scores of people) is if you want to kill random players at the touch of a button or make them float in the air and be unable to move, etc. Ie: "amlaming." Personally I think that this has to stop. The vast majority of JA servers use JA+ Mod or some other admin mod and admin abuse is very high. If you are winning or the Admin is in a bad mood that day you will find yourself amsleeped, amslapped and other silly stuff. What this does then is kills any competative spirit on the server. These mods were originally created to enforce made up "honor codes" (like bowing before every battle, dueling only, no chat kills and no saber down kills ever, no profanity) with the philosophy "they lamed me, so I will lame them back for revenge with cheat-like powers." Some of these admin mods also have backdoors and exploits in them that let non-admins do many of the same kinds of crap. Suddenly this is a problem.. somebody besides the admin cheating! Likewise, these mods also give the admin the power to "Grant god-like abilities" to his friends, so you can never be assured of a "fair match" as a result. Can you tell I don't like Admin Mods? I just don't want you to think that these mods are somehow required to be an admin. So do yourself a favor, don't be like the majority of admin mod ruined servers that have such strict rules. Learn to use \rcon. It's very easy, as easy as any amlame system, and it lets you kick people regardless of their name, ban them (via IP), change maps and settings on the fly, etc. Everything you need without abusive cheat commands and backdoor exploits.

Kurgan Posted May 13, 2004 Share Posted May 13, 2004 PS: Here's an article about rcon commands (rcon = "remote control"). It's for Quake3, but very little has changed in the engine for Jedi Academy. http://www.gameadmins.com/modules.php?name=Sections&op=viewarticle&artid=7 A good read, and will start you off on the right track, even if you decide later to use the (bad) admin mods. Remember, it's actually more work to use the admin mods, because you have to learn THOSE commands, and most of them are unessential to running a server. Rcon is built into the game, stable, and purely practical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcus(JSA) Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 LMAO Kurgan, very interesting read - but I find that 90% of people WANT admin mods. Scroll through the Master List and preview them - most of them HAVE an admin mod! Besides, if the server owner is good his choosen admins with passes, etc will be able to manage their commands maturely! Why do people use mods? Because they are fun, Fun, FUN! Peace!
