Im going to start working on a new mod and would like to test it on a listen server so i dont crash my game server over and over trying to get it right, can someone tell me how to set up the command line on a coduo listen server so as i could understand it lol...I tried before but couldnt get it to work, thanks if you can help again...

when i test something for our servers i do it first on my home machine with a command line in a game shortcut

create a new shortcut rigt click it then goto properties in target line insert a line like this

"F:\Call of Duty\CoDUOMP.exe" +set dedicated 2 +exec team.cfg +map_rotate

you will need a cfg file from a server to run it like your public server hope this helps

Yes thank you very much . Ha ve a great day

i tried to put what i was told in the target box for a command line and got item specified in target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct. Im using the shortcut on my desktop that i start coduo with ,is this wrong? Do i need to change the start in box wording also?...ahhhhhhhhh i just want to test some mods on my computer so i wont crash my game server or interupt people playing on server. Can anyone help please? Thanks a bunch

this might help you

read carefully

Ok im getting closer lol..I got the command line to work sort of the united offensive console comes up and scrolls but says Cant find map maps/mp/rotate.bsp any idea what the heck thats for? I took the team cfg that i use on server and it has map rotations in it,so im kinda stumped right now ..Thanks sgt clark for helping me get this far..command line is as follows "C:\Program Files\Call of Duty\CoDUOMP.exe" +set dedicated 2 +set fs_game badeyev12 +exec awe.cfg +exec team.cfg +map rotate with all my awe.cfg and server files and team.cfg file in with all the mods is this correct to test mods from this folder at start up?

umm its
+map_rotate
not...
+map rotate

that is correct

just use stock maps to start with, in custom maps you need to find the arena file to find correct map name,i use winrar to open them then find mp folder then its

mp_mapname.arena
then use the name after map

also to start AWE insert this line in your team.cfg

exec awe.cfg

then you will not have to have that in your command line

Ok thanks for input guys, ive changed the map rotate to map_rotate, and put the exec awe.cfg at the bottom of the team.cfg but ive also got a Hitch warning: 11218 msec frame time thats coming up with the cod uo console, good grief i feel stupid here... when i or if i ever get it to work does it go directly to the game or does the console come up and scroll through all the steps like it does now? Any ideas on the hitch warning? Why is this so complicated lol... Thanks for help sorry to be a pain here.

dont worry about the hitch warning the console appears do not close the console window then you start your game as normal then make sure your connection is set to local and the gametype is the same you want to play it should appear in the list of servers then join your server
