Server help

[mtrum01]

Alrighty guys I need help with A step by step help on what I need to do to successfully run A ACE / ACRE server.

I have the @ACE @ACRE needed etc already uploaded.
Do I need to do anything to get them to work?

My next issue is the Maps.
I have A fallujah map uploaded in the MP MISSIONS folder.

Is there anything else I must do to see the map on the server map selection.
If so, can someone show me how to?

Thanks alot in advance for the help.

Can anyone help? I really need to know what is going on. I've been told to post here on this issue.

Have you tried looking up an installation guide for installing these mods? They may be able to provide some better insight.

My next issue is the Maps.
I have A fallujah map uploaded in the MP MISSIONS folder.

Yes, in your server.cfg there is a section titled missions, you will need to put the mission in there an then save and restart your server.

I've uploaded my things twice now with the same error. X.x
I looked at the tutorials I'm still rusty on how to exactly code the map in the server.cfg
The map is called Fallujah_ACE_Insurgency_v1.fallujah.pbo

Thanks in advance for the further help.

Not sure of your setup, but mission files go in the missions folder. Not the maps.
In dayz we have our maps in the OA folder as @Fallujah.

Not absolutely sure, but file structure should probably be like:

Code: Select all

@ACE 
@ACRE
@Fallujah

You posted a fallujah varient .pbo file.
Does it say anywhere in the instructions that the file you posted is the mod, and you also have to install the map itself?

OK, step-by-step:

1st:
ACE requires the CBA library(ies), you will also need the fallujah world island. A good idea to maintain the ACE files is to use the Play with SIX utility, or the SIXX Update, as ACE frequently changes. YOu can get it here:

http://play.withsix.com/

2nd:
Your server startup paramters need the following entries, as ACE depends on them:
-mod=@CBA_A2;@CBA_OA;@CBA;

Now you will need the components of ACE (to the -mod= add the following):
@ACE;@ACEX

Depending on the mission, you will also have to use the correct army libraries for ACE (I will assume that you use a "standard" ACE army setup with the US side)
@ACEX_RU;@ACEX_USNavy

Now you need the ACE radio mod ACRE:
@ACEX_RU;@ACEX_USNavy

Now the fallujah world island:
@fallujah (I hope the spelling is correct, double check this before you actuall apply it please)

Your startup paramter would then look like this:
-mod=@CBA_A2;@CBA_OA;@CBA;@ACE;@ACEX@ACEX_RU;@ACEX_USNavy@;ACEX_RU;@ACEX_USNavy;@fallujah

Please note the order: the CBA libraries have to be loaded before you load the ACE component, or ACE won't find functions that CBA provides.

Also add you server config, and arma config here.

Finally in your server.cfg under mission class add your mission.

Alrighty Thanks for the help fellas I appreciate it.

ok so heres my mod parameter

-mod=arma2;expansion;ca;@CBA;@CBA_A2;@CBA_OA@ACE;@ACEX;@ACEX_RU;@ACEX_USNavy;@ACRE;@Clafghan;@EOD;@fallujah;@JayArma2Lib;@mb_objects;@MBG_Buildings2;@mbg_Buildings3;@mbg_testfield;@opx_objects;@razmisc;@RH_M4;@RH_MGS

I do have all the things listed above uploaded too.

The map I have under MP Missions labeled:
Fallujah_ACE_Insurgency_v1.fallujah.pbo

Now the server.cfg file this is what I do for the mission in there

class Missions
{
class Fallujah
{
template="Fallujah_ACE_Insurgency_v1.fallujah";
difficulty="regular";
};
class COOP_LaserShow
{
template="MPE1_LaserShow.Takistan";
difficulty="regular";
};
class COOP_Littlebird
{
template="MPE1_Littlebird.Takistan";
difficulty="regular";
};
class COOP_OneShotOneKill
{

Its the very first one. Am I doing it correctly. I hope soooo.
