ANY AND ALL SUPPORT FOR DEDICATED SERVERS SHOULD GO HERE, IN THIS THREAD, UNLESS I, OR ANOTHER MEMBER OF STAFF, ASKS YOU TO DO OTHERWISE

-->How to make a Dedicated Server for IW4M<--

 

1. Download The Dedicated Server Update Tool: HERE

 

2. Put it in your MW2 Location and run dsut.exe before you continue so you can download the relevant files.

 

--> Normally C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\call of duty modern warfare 2\

 

3. Go into the \main\ folder and create a new file called "server.cfg"

 

4. Open up server.cfg with notepad. Copy all of the code from this page (ctrl + A , ctrl +C) HERE, and paste it on your server.cfg file that you just opened up.

 

 

--> Or, if you want to skip step 3 and 4, just download this server.cfg.

--> Don't forget to change the map rotation

--> Make sure you have the DLC maps or remove them from the rotation

 

5. Rename iw4m.dat to iw4m.exe

 

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

 

-dedicated +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28961 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate

you can add -console if you like the traditional console window. Keep in mind that there might be some minor issues while using -console

 

 

7. Port forward any port you put in "+set net_port "

 

--> 28960 is the default

--> Make sure you port forward on the computer/server as well as on the router or gateway

--> Make sure to portforward with both UDP and TCP or else you will have problems

 

 

8. Run the shortcut and away you go!

 

Check and see if you server made it on list by visiting here: http://s.mufff.in/iw4msl

 

Cant connect to your own server? Cant see it in the browser list?

 

--> To connect you will need to goto console and type ''connect " then hit enter.

--> An example would be "connect 192.168.2.6:28961"

--> Afaik, 127.0.0.1 will not work.

 

 

-->Mods<--

 

 

For mods you need to do the following:

 

1) Find the mod you wish to run on your server, for this example I will be using iSnipe.

2) Take your .iwd mod file and rename it to z_svr_.iwd

--> In this example mine will be z_svr_iSnipe.iwd

3) Take your newly named .iwd and create a folder for it. Mine will simply be called isnipe

4) Then just throw your .iwd into the new folder.

5) Put this folder into your /mods directory.

6) Now in your server paramaters, you know:

 

-dedicated +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28961 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate

 

7) You want to add +set fs_game "mods/

--> It should look something along the lines of (I use my iSnipe example here):

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

 

 

8) Run your new server launcher thingy (the short-cut with the parameters) and your server should now load the mod

 

-->Playlist<--

 

If you want a IW5M like playlist, then follow the tutorial by yolarrydabomb: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=24838

 

 

-->BigBrotherBot (B3)<--

 

If you want to install B3, then follow the tutorial by Jerre: viewtopic.php?f=7&t=6975

 

-->Linux<--

 

To install a dedicated server on a Linux distro, just go HERE and follow the instructions.

Delete any executable file that you got on that folder (it's outdated)

Then extract this -> http://iw5.prod.fourdeltaone.net/files/dsut.zip to your server's folder and run dsut.exe

Finally, either rename iw4m.dat to iw4m.exe, or launch the server with a batch like this:

start %installdir%iw4m.dat -dedicated +set party_maxplayers 18 +set net_port 28961 +exec server.cfg +map_rotate

server config updated.

the server is running, but i cant connect to it.

Is your server running on your pc? If yes use your internal IP...

ill try it.

 

€: works, but its not on server list and others cant connect to it.

Forward the server's net_port (and allow it on any firewall that you might have running)

port forwarding doesnt work at all on our router.

Then you'll only be able to host public servers on that computer when you replace your router.

but everything worked back in aIW for me, same router n stuff..

Can your friend see the server on the list, or is he trying to join by using connect command?

Also, make sure that your friend is using the updater FourDeltaOne client.

 

how i can register my name at this server admin this area okey im wrote it

sets _Admin "^1Turkey^7Star"

and there is have password area i but not change nothing

You don't register yourself as admin. What you just set there is only for people to see who's the admin when they query your server.

On your server.cfg, you got a line wich says "set rcon_password". That's where you set your server's admin password.

Then, while playing on your server, you open the console and type:

/rcon login "pass"

then (for example)

/rcon fast_restart

Another option is to use b3

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