Re: BC2 Support for “region” setting

Same here with both of my servers. If I were to guess, it's probably because players cannot accumulate score until there's at least 4 players in the game. To be honest, I end up getting a population just by having one or two people screw around and capture points while unlocking various weapons and ...

Re: BC2 Server FULL after R10 !

I've had a bunch of people early this morning. And then it was empty at around 8 AM today.

Maybe everyone tried to pull out their fancy hacks. :D

Re: PBBans.com ?

Yep, though I've had to disable PB on my BF:BC2 servers, so we're not using it actively at the moment.

It works extremely well. Blocks MANY known cheaters automatically.

Re: BC2 admin daemon feedback

Syph: tell me about it. At one of my previous jobs, someone asked me to magically associate individual email addresses with certain parents of children, when such a relation in the database didn't exist (it pooled all of the email addresses for a single child, but didn't make any distinction on whic...

Re: Help Installing VPS game server!

Also, you don't need to do those steps, most Linux distros released these days are modern enough to have pthreads and glibc > 2.1. However, if you DO want to use ngStats, you will need to install some kind of Java Runtime Environment (JRE for short); you can either go with Sun's JRE or one of the op...

Re: Help Installing VPS game server!

Sweet, good job on figuring it out. :D

It's been a long time since I've ran a UT'99 server, so I totally forgot that there was a separate binary dedicated to running a Linux server. ;P

Re: Just bought a VDS now how do i...

I should add why I emphasize transferring the file unextracted over SFTP: if you extract the files first on your desktop, then transfer the extracted files over SFTP, you'll lose all sorts of permissions, including the ability to execute the file in Linux. This is easily fixable, but it would be mor...

Here's a better link: http://www.fileplanet.com/29122/20000/fileinfo/Unreal-Demo-v348-(Linux) I was able to extract the archive from the file I downloaded from Fileplanet.

(disclaimer: I'm not leasing a VDS from NFO)

.exe on the VDS, or your Windows machine?

You'll want to try executing a .sh or .bin file instead, since those are more typically Linux executable files.

Re: Information on upcoming BF:BC2 version R9

Great. Hopefully they fix the client so that ticking "PunkBuster" in the filter actually finds PB-enabled servers. :x
