First time server setup, need some help

Post by goofycoolguy » November 14th, 2012, 6:11 pm

so this is what i have done already:

setting up my server and ive installed cod4, downloaded the files for codjumper, placed them in the folder inside of mods>codjumperv3_12, added the config file in the main directory (which i think is the problem) and made a shortcut on my desktop with the target: ""C:\Program Files\Activision\Call of Duty 4 - Modern Warfare\iw3mp.exe" +set dedicated 2 +set sv_punkbuster 1 +set fs_game mods/codjumperv3_12 +exec godconfig.cfg" (since i have my own server with me and dont wanna pay for one onile) and i get the console up but this is what comes up on the console (error with the config file )

(dashed out ip's untill i can fixed this)

i can attempt to connect from my notebook but it just awaits connection untill i shut the console down then it looses connection, so i know most of what i have done is right but idk if im missing something in the shortcut target or if its my config file. Help is appreciated

godconfig.cfg should be placed inside mods/codjumper folder, and in the command line you should have a +map_rotate after exec godconfig.cfg.

solved most of my own problems lol just have one last question, When i download a custom map, how do i get it into the server so it can be used, i tried to but it in the directory where the mod is and add it in the rotation section in the config file. I can vote on it but it wont load just freezes when it tries to load.

The mod is NOT loaded.

Post your command line.

Let me give you a word of advice and rename your .cfg to something else :wink:
Pedsdude wrote: Finally, rename server.cfg to something less predictable like 43954i95server.cfg - there's an exploit where people can download your config file if they guess the name of it, and consequently get your RCON password. Simply rename the file to something other than server.cfg and edited the command line for the server accordingly.
