mabey u should have posted ur own topic... it is not as apparent when stickies get new posts.

assuming ur server and client are both using different ports then the problem lies with what ever ICS software u are using.

how do I get pk3 files from a cd that I don't have.  My server is in dallas and I am not.  Can I not download the pk3 files to my server?

I have a problem with my mapcycle file. I try to add this g_availableWeapons "2222222222211" but this is what it loades 22222222222222112222, what do i do wrong?

if ur server is below 1.02 then that is the correct result as the last 4 are the nades and since u did not specify them there value remains dafault.

if ur using 1.02 or above then the g_availableWeapons cvar has been depreciated and u can now change the weapons with the following:

disable_weapon_knife "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_US_SOCOM "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_M19 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_silvertalon "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_M590 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_microuzi "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_M3A1 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_MP5 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_USAS_12 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_M4 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_AK_74 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_SIG551 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_MSG90A1 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_M60 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_RPG_7 "2"
disable_pickup_weapon_MM_1 "2"
disable_pickup_weapon_M84 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_SMOHG92 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_AN_M14 "0"
disable_pickup_weapon_M15 "0"

are there any alternatives to the "screen" method in order to keep the server running when I disconnect from the shell account?

there might be other programs that do the same thing as screen, but screen is the most popular as it comes with most distro's

couldnt find the program "sof2ded"     all noob here

this is what it tells me when i click on sof2ded
and when i type in console (sof2ded +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg) it tells me command not found

and where do i get update101.pk3?

in usr/local/games/sof2

base (dir)
pb (dir)
libcxa.so.1
readme.txt
sof2ded


in usr/local/games/sof2/base
ctfinf.mapcycle
server.cfg
maps.pk3
models.pk3
mp.pk3
musicandsound.pk3
skins.pk3
textures0.pk3
textures1234.pk3
therest.pk3
update102.pk3


im a bigtime noob to mandrake

oh im running mandrake 9.0

anyone?


i also tried

Copy the libcxa.so.1 shared library file included in this patch to your lib directory.
  /usr/lib/libcxa.so.1


and got the same

ur typing it wrong, as above:
./sof2ded +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

u get update101.pk3, update102.pk3,update103.pk3 from the patches.

Hi... still getting used to figuring stuff out in linux.  I somehow managed to get it installed and configed to work on my network.  Now, I'm trying to install an sof2 server.  The instructions seemed pretty straight forward but I'm getting a very odd error when I run the ./sof2ded executable.  Into the process, it says: "map cycle file 'c.mapcycle' not found".

In my server.cfg file, I of course have 'c.mapcycle' as my filename for my mapcycle file.  In the base directory, I have a mapcycle file called c.mapcycle so I am totally stumped.

I'm running redhat 8.0 and used (w/ minor modifications) the server.cfg and ctf.mapcycle files available in this thread.  Any ideas or suggestions would be most appreciated!!!
