Anyone else having problems getting this server program to make the server? I config it and it will not output to a new dos window. Will the servers not run till it hits midnight? And my server has 12 ips so i dunno if that is a problem? Any way to set the ip you want it to run on?

The documentation is rather feeble. When I start the server, it just crashes every time. Also, what are the parameters to start as a service, and how about multihoming?

Here is my INI

[SYSTEM]
APP_CHECK_TIME=10
[SESSION1]
APP_FILENAME=battlefront.exe
APP_WORKING_DIR=C:\MASTER HOSTING\Lucas\SWBF
APP_COMMAND_LINE_BASIC=/win /norender /autonet dedicated /resolution 320 240 /nosound
SESSION_NAME=EPGLoadServer
MAX_PLAYERS=32
START_PLAYERS=3
AI_UNITS=0
HEROES=1
TEAM_DAMAGE=1
SHOW_PLAYER_NAME=1
TEAM_SELECT=0
AI_DIFFICULTY=1
RANDOM_ORDER=0

I am having the same problem, the server has very weak documentation.

(sigh) the Ps2 one works but not the PC!!

The PS2 ones do however.

The console never pops up.

SOme of my mates down here in Australia have downloaded the software intended for use with the pS2. They have not been able to get it to work.. What have you done to get it to work on your system (what ports have you opened etc).

Thanks,

PS - not much time to go until release for you guys in the USA. If you get online and see a player named Jek PORKINS, that's me and you better watch out cause I'll be blastin!!! :D

Nope. You don't choose your ip. How can you have 12 IPs? Anyways, if you know the gamepart and want to forward it to your router, pm me. your ip can be found on www.whatismyip.com)

It's caled multihoming. My box has 12 IPs on it for hosting.


TO FIX THE PROBLEM WITH PC YOU MUST INSTALL DX9 ON YOUR REMOTE SERVER!!!

There is no rendering happening, but whatever.

Wanted to bump this for some other admins to find.
DirectX on a server? PLEASE! But it at least started.

Now to figure out why the clients all complain that its full or something when trying to connect....
