Hello, I now figured out how to run 2 servers and to be able to connect to those 2 servers but I can not set up b3 for those 2 servers.

 

I already set up one for my first server which worked fine but when I copy my b3 folder and change the port and game_mp.log, I started my second server with the first and my first server was fine but when I ran the second b3, the b3 for both servers would not respond to my commands but still announced the periodic messages.

 

Is there a way to fix that, by the way, b3 2 and server 2 uses the same game_mp.log.

 

THanks

No, you cant, but you can add in your server.cfg:

 

ServerCFG1:

seta g_log "game1_mp.log"

ServerCFG2:

seta g_log "game2_mp.log"

 

This create 2 separate file on the same folder, so you can use with B3!

LuisD":61gbuqhu]If you want B3 to run on many servers, you have to run one instance per server. Just create a config file for each B3 for each server. Set different query ports for your servers and use that for each B3 instance.

 

And last start your B3 instances adding this to your shortcut properties after the files path "-c ./b3/conf/ConfigServer1.xml"

For example for running two servers it should be like this:

 

B3 Server 1:

"-c ./b3/conf/ConfigServer1.xml"

 

B3 Server 2:

"-c ./b3/conf/ConfigServer2.xml"

 

This is valid info that I'm being lazy to rewrite and include on the tutorial, but it answers your question.

Nvm, Thanks! it works!

 

Thanks for the help, also, where did you get that text, could you link me to that thread or post?

i try this and dont working for me. Do i have to create another database in phpmyadmin with a different name. Can you put some example how look terget in shortcut. Thanks anyway!

I'm running b3 for IW4M and IW5M from the same b3 installation, and these are the shortcuts that I'm using:

C:\b3\b3_run.py -c ./b3/conf/iw4m.xml

C:\b3\b3_run.py -c ./b3/conf/iw5m.xml

 

You can use the same database with all IW5M servers

i copy b3.xml and rename it to b3.2xml, change query port in it, create new shortcut with new target but still nothing. maybe i create in wrong way shortcut?

You can't change the extension...

Name it "b3_2.xml" or "b4.xml" instead.

Because someone used the search button and found the topic that mentions how to run multiple b3 instances from one installation.

^an example to follow.
