I followed all the steps but i get this error could not find 'code_pre_gfx.ff'. what does this mean ??

Your "code_pre_gfx.ff" is either missing or corrupted, get a copy of code_pre_gfx.ff and place it in IW4M/zone/english

code_pre_gfx.ff is a single player file. Not used by the dedicated server.

Now it works fine with batch file.

But when i run it with dedi watcher (both 1.7.0 & 1.7.3),server crashes constantly.

Here is my line in dediwatcher.ini :

 

[0]

name=Test

executable=iw4m.dat +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28960 +exec server.cfg +map mp_rust +map_rotate +log 0 +set rcon_password xxxxx +log 1 -dedicated -console

any hint for my issue ?

I still can't make my server to use server.cfg file. if i manually write exec server.cfg, i get error couldn't exec server.cfg. Then I set up rcon password yesterday, modified my server in rcon tool, and today, everything is gone, even rcon password.

Maybe your file extensions aren't showing up and your "server.cfg" is actually "server.cfg.txt". Also, it needs to be on "main" folder.

OK hello everybody, I have a question,

I created my own dedi server and it works like a dream, connecting w/ ip:port and so far so g.

But then when I tried to run a mod on the server, it doesn't,

my iw4-shortcut.exe's target is:

E:\iw4m\iw4m.exe +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28961 +exec server.cfg +map mp_rust +map_rotate -dedicated -console +set fs_game "mods/rse"

 

and in my mods-folder:

iw4/mods/RSE/z_svr_RSE.iwd

 

When I launch the dedi, connect to it, I see on the upper-right-corner the RSE (the bot mod) text, so the mod does exactly launch, but I cannot add any bots,

/svr_bots 5 <------- doesn't work in console

 

Sooo, what do I do, any ideas.

 

PS. Ya gonna fix the no-dedis-in-server-list-problem?

(Can't see my server on the list...)

 

TY

fs_game is on the wrong spot...try this

E:\iw4m\iw4m.exe  -dedicated +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28961 +set fs_game "mods/rse" +exec server.cfg +map_rotate 

 

Edit: Ahhh I see how you screwed up. Updating OP topic..

Edit 2: fixed my post.

Hey I successfully got the server, but when I go into the game and look for my server, it is not there and when I type "connect 192.168.1.126:28960" it says "unknown command "connect".

 

Aghhhhh, so annoying. What should I do?

You need to type "/connect IP" in the sconsole..

can i open more than one mod ??

for example i use :-

-dedicated +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28961 +set fs_game "mods/isnipe" +set fs_game "mods/vote" +exec server.cfg +map mp_rust +map_rotate

is it correct?

Which vote mod are you using and is your isnipe mod modifying _gamelogic.gsc?

I get "Steam must be running to play this game." I've reinstalled steam, re-downloaded the files from steam. Been trying for 3 hours now, no progress, same shit every time. I got steam on, logged on an acc with IW4 already, that don't work, logged on my other acc, same result. I got the config, I used the server files, also tried to add the client files. Added everything from theese steps in this guide. What more can I do?

Same error bro. I still cannot fix it.

At this part I get stuck!!!

 

5. Create a shortcut of iw4m.exe and right click the shortcut, select properties and paste this line at the end of the target line.

 

Code: Select all

-dedicated +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28960 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate

 

So were's the iw4m.exe?For MW2?

So were's the iw4m.exe?For IW4?

What do you mean it gets stuck?

Also it's normal for it to send heartbeats to the servers..

If it's not being able to use the required sockets, open windows command prompt as administrator and use this command:

netsh winsock reset

Might need a reboot or something after using that command.
