You would just need to paste

Code: Select all

+server.hostname "NFOservers.com: Stress test" +server.port 28015 +server.identity "NFOrust" +server.seed 6738 -logFile "output.txt" +server.secure +server.maxplayers "200" +server.tickrate 30
into the target line.

Do you own the game? It should only say no subscription if you don't own Rust on Steam.

I'm not sure what is happening here. It's almost like you have the incorrect files, but I pulled a fresh copy last night and they worked.

Not with the most recent download. I imagine he got rid of those. Give these files a go and see if they work http://tinyurl.com/nt4mc84 .

instead of using start/rustdedicated.exe etc...

I experimented with run/rustdedicated.exe and saved it as utf-8 instead of ansi.
after running the batch file the command prompt just went on speed...scrolling fast text in a loop.

anyway is it possible you could loginto my un-managed vds and have a look,whenever your free.

Sure. It was posted earlier in the thread and the files I zipped up should actually have it.

Code: Select all

@ECHO OFF
CLS
CD "C:\Games\rust\Release\"
CMD /c START "Rust Dedicated Server" -batchmode +server.hostname "NFOservers.com: Stress test" +server.port 28015 +server.identity "NFOrust" +server.seed 6738 -logFile "output.txt" +server.secure +server.maxplayers "200" +server.tickrate 30
EXIT

I transferred the files you gave me to c:\Games\rust\Release.
I changed the shortcut properties to start in:c:\Games\rust\Release

I ran the shortcut and it starts to work,but then fails..I get the same problem in my very first post on the 2ND picture I posted (CMD ).

Running it direct from the rustdedicated.exe works,I get the rust popup.
I didn't find any (START.bat) file in the link for the download tho.
