NJLP UT2K4 SERVERS - NEWS and BLOG readme!

[butchski]

Hey Guys, Butchski here.

I thought we should make 1 section for all of the news
and info and DOWNLOADS related to the UT2K4 servers.

We have Murdocks WINxp currently 67.85.162.91

and Corpus Decrepid's Windows Server.
( use unclelouis.com as IP to add)

If you need to DOWNLOAD stuff for the server
COME TO THIS POST, and we will have Direct download links
until we get the Re-direct server thing going again.

*NOTE FOR CORPUS* please POST any info on the server
here, and maybe those INI files you sent me.

Thanks, butchski.... READ ON for the FIRST ENTRY

Two things:

1) I'm running 2k4 on my P4 2.8Ghz Windows system. So in this effort I am similar to Murdock.

2) use unclelouis.com for the ip, not http://www.unclelouis.com (www is generally for web pages).

Am sending you other information via mail. Would rather NOT post the ini file on this board.

I Downloaded maps from Butchski site to the CorpusD server.

Any thoughts to making your site the NJLP Redirector server?

[Murdock]

UT 2004 STATS ARE HERE!
I have set up the stats for the Server.

CorpusD, If you set stats for your server, I can add them to mine. The new version allows for multiple servers!

Butchsk here..

Corpus, i played on your server today, and it worked well
Map vote is working well, but, there was 1 thing i noticed

No Maps list for Vehicle CTF. look in ut2004.ini
at this part and make sure Prefix="vctf",Acronym="vctf
are set to VCTF and not CTF

Example of Murdocks:
GameConfig=
(GameClass="XGame.xVehicleCTFGame",Prefix="vctf",Acronym="vctf",
GameName="Vehiclef",Mutators="XGame.MutQuadJump",Options=)

Thanks, Butchski

I have a problem with Map Vote, and the
OnslaughtFull.MutVehicleArena mutator


http://www.unrealadmin.org/modules.php? ... e&artid=40


http://www.unrealadmin.org/modules.php? ... inghandler


MutVehicleArena lets you pick just one vehicle
and make that the ONLY one in the map.

when you start a LOCAL game (not server) it writes
these lines and THIS WORKS no problem

[OnslaughtFull.MutVehicleArena]
arenavehicleclassname=onslaught.onsattackcraft

(and attack craft is the RAPTOR)

FOR MAP VOTE, you do it like this

GameConfig=(GameClass="Onslaught.ONSOnslaughtGame",Prefix="ONS",Acronym="ONS",GameName="RAPTORBattle",
Mutators="OnslaughtFull.MutVehicleArena",
Options="arenavehicleclassname=onslaught.onshovertank")

(this one should be for the TANK)
IT IGNORES the OPTIONS= section and gives error in CONSOLE
arenavehicleclassnam not set and runs with DEFAULT vehicle

If I add this right below it

[OnslaughtFull.MutVehicleArena]
arenavehicleclassname=onslaught.onsattackcraft

it does RAPTOR, which is RIGHT, and console displays same ERROR message . i cant find the syntax ANYWHERE on the WEB


For the OPTIONS= section, i have tried these things..
and messed with the quotes, but they are required

Options="arenavehicleclassname=onslaught.onshovertank"
Options="arenavehicleclassname.onslaught.onshovertank"
Options="onslaught.onshovertank"
Options="arenavehicleclassname.onshovertank"
Options="arenavehicleclassname=onslaught.onshovertank"

I tried putting them in the MUTATORS= section also


SO, SOMEONE FIGURE IT OUT FOR ME !!!! hehehe

I have enabled the localstats as per Murdock.

I've made changes to the CorpusD server to now send up the stats at Midnight. This is done using simple .cmd and ftp command files. I used the Windows XP scheduler to send the job up.

I've also made changes again for VCTF as per Butchski but they are not working. I see it listed as a problem on one of the forums in unrealadmin.org. It says its caused by caching and It mentions there is a fix but doesn't say what it is. Lameo..

I have also set up my redirector to the unreal admin redirectors. They can loadbalance between the many servers for unreal, 2k3 and 2k4. INI Code included for redirection is as follows:

[IpDrv.HTTPDownload]
RedirectToURL=http://uz.unrealadmin.org/
ProxyServerHost=
ProxyServerPort=3128
UseCompression=True
