Trying to make a good server config file

[Ardayus]

I am trying to make a good LAN server config for my home LAN so me an my friends can duke it out. This is what I have so far...do I need anything else?

 

 

// Server Info

seta g_motd "Make Peace with Your Gods"

seta sv_hostname "Dedicated v1.03 DUEL FEST"

seta Administrator "Ardayus"

seta Email "slyckfish@msn.com"

seta url "davestavern.iwarp.com"

seta Location "USA"

 

// Server Config

 

seta g_gametype 3

seta sv_maxclients 10

seta sv_minclients 0

seta g_ghostRespawn 3

seta g_forcerespawn 0

seta g_inactivity 0

seta sv_pure 1

seta sv_floodProtect 1

seta sv_maxRate 10000

seta sv_maxPing 500

seta sv_minPing 0

seta timelimit 20

 

// Game Settings

 

seta g_maxForceRank 7

seta g_forcePowerDisable 10209

seta g_weaponDisable 65531

seta g_saberLock 1

seta g_dismember 100

 

// Maps rotationcycle

 

set d1 "map duel_training ; set nextmap vstr d2"

set d2 "map duel_carbon ; set nextmap vstr d3"

set d3 "map duel_pit ; set nextmap vstr d4"

set d4 "map duel_bay ; set nextmap vstr d5"

set d5 "map duel_hanger ; set nextmap vstr d6"

set d6 "map duel_temple ; set nextmap vstr d1"

vstr d1

I believe you should make the server info lines "sets" instead of "seta" - so itll display w/ the server info button...

 

maxpings are kinda annoying imo, even if you are an lpb it sometimes wont let you in after jk2 has begun retrying a full server...

 

other than that i cant spot anything

Actually - if it's a LAN server I'd leave the max/min ping cvars at zero anyway... I mean - if yer gonna host a LAN game there is no sense in denying access per ping (If anyone on the LAN has 500+ ping I'd say there would be something MAJORLY wrong anyway.)

 

MaxRate - Pop it to 25000 unless your hub/router can't handle the traffic. Depending on how fast your hub is vs how many players you have can bog it down if it's a 10mbit hub. (Just watch your hub's lights - if a lot of collisions happen take the rate down some.)

 

Set your duel_fraglimit and fraglimit cvars too - a good value I like to use for duel_fraglimit is 1-2 less than my max players. fraglimit in duels should be set to 1.

 

Consider even though you are on a LAN setting a rconpassword might be good. Unless you will be sharing a desk with the server you won't wanna get up and fix things in the server console very often. Turning on voting might be good to have a quick way to change gametypes/maps too.

 

Also there is cool map called sith_ascension you can grab at http://www.jediknightii.net. ge_force_x is decent too.

 

Last - if you don't like the duel_jedi and duel_bespin maps that's cool... But if you might of forgotten to put them in the lineup I thought I'd remind you that they were not in your rotation.
