Dedicated server problems...

I am trying to start a dedicated server, but I have problems... I have downloaded .cfg files from this forum, but it doesn't work... I am unable to start the server... this is what I get in the console window:

 

JK2MP: v1.03 win-x86 Apr 30 2002

Initialising zone memory .....

----- FS_Startup -----

Current search path:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast/base

 

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

0 files in pk3 files

 

Running in restricted demo mode.

 

----- FS_Startup -----

Current search path:

C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast/demo

 

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

0 files in pk3 files

----- CL_Shutdown -----

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

Couldn't load mpdefault.cfg

I try to start the server with this commandline (shortcut):

"C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast\GameData\jk2mp.exe" +set dedicated 2 +exec jko_dedicated1.cfg

 

What is wrong?

When I just launch the jk2mp.exe, it loads up the .pk3 files and all looks ok, until it says: Could not load OpenGL Subsystem.

 

I am running it on an NT 4.0 server

 

Can you guys help me?

the .cfg file I have made with tips from here, is using gametype CTF... What are the gametypes for Deathmatch and Saber-only Deathmatch?

Only, I don't need this information before I have gotten my server up and running...

It appears the server is not finding the .pk3 files. They should be located in a folder called base in the same directory as the server binary. Assuming you are running v1.03 of the server binary, you should have a minimum of the following in your base directory:

 

assets0.pk3

assets1.pk3

assets2.pk3

server.cfg

well, as I said. When I launch only the jk2mp.exe, it fires up and loads up all .pk3 files. But my hardware is not qualified to run the game itself, but dedicated server should do ok. so it stops an says Could not load OpenGL subsystem, but that is because the graphics card is no good...

 

I have the three .pk3 files in my base folder, but I don't have the server.cfg... Is this the file that I specify with +exec in my shortcut? If so, mine is called jko_dedicated.cfg, so I do have it aswell...

 

I can't find any relations to the paths mentioned in my first post, in my .cfg file... Where does it come from that it looks for .pk3 files in the C:\Program Files\LucasArts\Star Wars JK II Jedi Outcast/base folder? Look closely, and you see that the / is wrong.. Shouldn't it be a \?

I fixed it...

I analyzed the console window with the errors and saw that it was looking for a base folder directly under my installdir... My base folder was located under installdir\GameData\

Why is that?

 

Anyway, I copied the base folder one step up, and it worked...

 

Well, looking forward to trying this now... I can't wait for a saber-only deathmatch...

 

 

Btw, can anyone give me the settings for the different game modes? CTF, DM, and such?

I have earned the right to be called stupid...

 

In my shortcut to launch the dedicated server, the "start in" was without the GameData folder.. .therefore it started in the wrong directory, and ofcourse did not find the base directory...

 

How stupid can one get?

Hehe, anyways it is fixed now and the game runs like a charm... I have set min. players to 5, so there are now 5 bots running around in there hunting each other.

Gametype 0 is for FFA,

 

Maybe this will help you a bit :

 

set g_gametype 0

set g_saberLocking 1

set g_forcePowerDisable 32673

set g_weaponDisable 16378

set g_saberghoul2collision 1

set g_saberTracesaberfirst 1

 

This are a few settings for a Saber only server with no Lightning, drain, seeing heal.

 

Good luck with your server !
