ok and what if i have a private server

malinkie,

I got some info from Raven this evening so I'll jump on it tomorrow night. I should have something in a day or two.

I had a server running on my other computer w/o a flaw, now all of a sudden, it doesn't work. I didn't fool with anything; therefore I don't understand what the problem is.

When I host a jk3 server and i go to my other computer and bring the game up I cant see my server on the list my clan member couldnt see it ether the only way for my meber to join is by my ip but I aslo can see it in the locals every once inwhile my server will show up in the internet list and if I refreash it it disappears and it is set to dedicated server can any one tell me what wrong.

I'm getting this problem with FreeBSD:

-bash-2.05b$ uname -a
FreeBSD srv.escapedturkey.com 4.9-PRERELEASE FreeBSD 4.9-PRERELEASE #0: Sat Sep 20 04:53:17 GMT 2003 escaped@srv.escapedturkey.com:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/whatever i386
-bash-2.05b$

Startup:

screen ./linuxjampded +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 69.50.183.227 +set net_port 29070 +set ttycon 0 +set fs_homepath /usr/home/turkey +set com_hunkmegs 64 +set sv_maxclients 16 +exec server.cfg

Using the default server.cfg to test:

// Server Config

// start the first map
vstr d1

It goes to this and I have to hit CTRL C to stop it:

That's it, just hangs there. I have JK2 running on the same machine and it's running just fine. I followed the instructions for the FreeBSD install here:

Hrm. :(

OK! I guess i'll post it here also.

Everyone seems to be under the assumption that g_weapondisable 65531 is saber only. It is not! It still leaves trip mines, det pack, ammo an what not.

The correct setttings for SABER ONLY ARE:

g_weapondisable 524279

PLEASE UPDATE YOUR SERVERS AND TELL YOUR FREINDS!

Apextwin,

Do u have a list of server config cvars that i could have??
you could email them to me at havenocommonsense@hotmail.com


I need a list of server options in more detailed format. the ones u get with the dedicated download isnt exactly the full list.

I tring to set up a deul server but i want it very specifically set up.

I was actually started writing a program like yours before i read your post but i didnt have enough info for the server setup cvars.

I may just write it for practice anyway. well see.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Anyone know why the ip is showing up as 10.10.10.100 which is my router ip thing, I got DMZ on and stuff what else do i need to do?

First I want to thank everyone for this great thread.Creating such a community is not easy.

I will run a JA server and i don't want to disable voting system but i want to disable a specific part of it.For instance I don't want players to vote for gametypes.Is there a way to do this?

there is one more thing I want to ask.Is there anyway limit the ranks of the force.For example I don't want anybody to give grip 3 ranks.Can i forbid it?

None of this can currently be done without a mod, as far as I know.

inskip help me dude, how do i get thru a linksys router, i got dmz on and the ports opened, HELP

yea, I think it would be nice to be able to change the kind of vote and enable/disable parts, like disable the ability of voting people off (THIS ISN"T SURVIVOR PEOPLE), and disable gametype changes, but keep map voting on since obviously if the map just drags on and on, people can vote to have it changed.

I'm sorry, I'm not familiar with that type of router. I have a netgear, and it seems to work by itself.

I can help ya, first after getting into the Advanced screen, go to the very bottom portion and where it says BLOCK WAN REQUEST (ENABLED by Default)... DISABLE it... Then apply for the changes to take affect. Then go to forwarding and forward ports 29070~29079 and set it for either UDP or BOTh, and then put in your IP (can be obtained by going to start => run+ cmd and typing ipconfig it will look something like 192.168.1.102 or whatever.. then click apply.. that SHOULD get your ports opened to allow for dedicated server play

Can somone help me on this when i do a server and 4 ppl comes in when they press k and accepts a dual the me and the other person press k for me and him is said only 2 is there a code where you can do k any time no matter if theres 2 ppl duel or not

Any tips on how to make the server as "unlaggy" as possible? I am running it off my home machine and I am playing on it as well. Are there certain things that I should set/not set that would help?

P.S. My server is called "Prime's Server". Can anyone see it in the JA duel server list? It would be nice to know if people can get on :)

Ok does anyone have a dlink 614 wireless dedicated server working? i had J.O. running on a linksys before but am having toubles with dlink. Also does jedi runner (Great Program by the way!) work for jedi academy?

:compcry:

the best way to run a ded server on the same machine as playing is to make a copy of your base folder and put it somewhere else with the dedicated server executable. I'll use that one instead and allow the game you play on to use the original copy. (less laggy)

You will have to also change the port that your server uses on your machine


..\Jedi Academy\GameData\jamp.exe" +set net_port 29071 +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

set the server to run on prot 29071 while your game runs on 29070.

use that for your shortcut to the dedicated server exe.

Jedi Runner is in the process of being updated as we speak to work for JKA

Jedi Academy servers simply do not show up most of the time. You have to have Gamespy Arcade to see 90% of the servers for JA. I'm shocked Raven has not moved more quickly to correct this.

Have people download Gamespy Arcade and they should be able to see your server fine. They can enter through Gamespy or they can just grab your IP and go in manually. It's free software.

So by reading this post I'm assuming there is no way to keep one bot in the Game ? In our JK2 server I have a custom personality bot (it's a actual pk3 files) SO when I try to add it the same way to our Jedi Academy Server It gets kicked out when someone joins. Kinda defeats the purpose of a training bot if it get kicked out of the server

I've re-launched the Dedicated Servers help forum, and I'm moving this thread as a sticky there...

From my understanding on the Raven Forums, according to Kenn Hoekstra, there is a patch In the works since they are very aware of the problem of very few servers showing up, but do not email Raven asking when the patch will be out since they don't know yet.

http://ravenforums.com/viewtopic.php?t=2654)

dam, now that what i call hate mail! :rolleyes:

I can see why people are angry about the in game server list being faulty but if people were just patient, then a patch will be out to fix the problem soon.

True that reaven should have fixed the problem pre-release but most of you dont understand that these companies are under great stress to release on the chosen date (or around about that). Most of the money spend developing the product will go into in the last month or so to get a release candidate. I've been under that sort of pressure before and its NOT nice!

I for one feel sympathy for Raven in that aspect.

NOW for some news relating to the topic...:thumbs1:

Before i saw the Apextwin's post about JK Runner, i was in the middle of creating a program that does just about the same thing. Its about 33% complete at the moment so i'll be trying to complete it by the end of the week.

Could you give me any idea of if u guys would be interested in this sort of program once its finished.

You MUST understand, even though Apextwin has written this stuff before, i'm a Computer Geek and i write these sort of programs just for fun. Its not going to be some amazing program, but it will do exactly wat it says on the tin. (thanks Ronseal Advert heh :) )

I have a question.

The mutliplayer maps in the game are in mp/maps but I have found a number of 3rd party maps are in /maps no mp folder. This causes a problem with my map scanner, I can add some code to handle this but want to know if all 3rd party maps will be in just /maps or can they be in either, mp/maps or /maps? Anyone care to fill me in?

If anything, you just re-pack the custom maps so that they will load into the MP folder like


FileName Content Size Folder
duality.bsp 2,330,021b maps\MP

instead of just having it load into the base folder for maps. or something like that so that it follows the JA order of things

If you just want to have a 1 or more bots to keep a human company until more humans arrive, set bot_minplayers 2 or higher. If it is 2, the first human to join will kick 1 of the two bots, leaving one to practice with. The next human to join will kick the remaining bot, leaving two humans on the server. If one of the humans leaves, the server will add a bot to keep the total players 2 (1 human, 1 bot). It works the same for higher numbers, the server will add or kick bots to keep the number of players at the number set until the number of humans equals or exceeds bot_minplayer.

If you want to keep a particular bot on the server at all times set bot_minplayers 0, then addbot <botname>. The server will not kick the bot, no matter how many humans join.

3rd-party map .pk3 files are usually put in the \GameData\base folder.

yeah, wouldn't you just leave out the \maps or the \mp\maps
and just call teh pk3 file directly for d/l maps

hey
we got our own clan server
but it was public for a while
now its like 3 weeks running continually
any 1 know how to reset it ?

we got the rcon of course

thx in advance

Anyone now how to set the maps to rotate after a set time has passed even if no players are on ther server?

That's not possible. You can always change the map manually using rcon.

I got following problem: when I type /status or /map_restart, it says "server is not running" ... what to do?
(I logged in with RCON on our clanserver)

After using the /rconpassword *password* for every command you issue, you need to have the /rcon in front of the command or the game wont know what you are trying to do (in your view)

Is there away to after once side has lost/won a siege game have everyone switch sides and play the map again then after that game move on to the next map in the list?

I got guestion:

I wont disable a forces but not every one. For exacly I wont desable only: grip, speed and seeing- how can I do that? ... and I wont change level some forces, is it posible?

That's the default setting, so you don't have to do anything.

i think the command you use if forcetoggle and it lists which numerical value represents the force power, and just use PageUp and down and individually disable/enable the ones ya want.

what about the server is not able to show W/L in game when you press TAB ?

I thought it was related to the frag_limit, duel_fraglimit settings but it doesn't help if i change them.

It's not possible

I've got a question.

I have a router and I've set up the ports 29069-29071 to come to my computer's IP. When I start a dedicated server with +set net_port 29071 +set dedicated 2 I see it in the local list (which is right I guess). But, is it ok to see my computer's internal IP in the list? Not the external?

I started a dedicated server on my computer and I connect to it fine and all...but others don't. They can't see it. ...Please help.
