How do I run a custom mission?

Post by kraze »

  1. Connect to your server's FTP using the information on the "File manager" tab in your control panel. We also have a guide on how to use FTP.
  2. Double click on the "MPmissions" folder and upload your custom mission file.
  3. Go up a directory, double-click on the "cfg" folder, and download "server.cfg" (alternately, edit it through the "File manager" page in the control panel).
  4. Find this section in your server.cfg:

    Code: Select all

    class Missions
    {
            class my mission
            {
                    template = "mymission.template";
                    difficulty = "regular";  // difficulty: recruit, regular, veteran or mercenary (see CfgDifficulties in the main game config)
            };
    
    };
    
  5. Replace mymission.template with the name of your mission. Be sure to leave off the ".pbo" extension.
  6. Save your server.cfg and re-upload it to your server.
  7. Restart the server.
If your custom mission also requires CO, you can enable it by editing the mods specification through the "Server control" page.
