Starting a dedicated ET server on ubuntu


(nkadithya31) #1

Hi,

I have installed ET on ubuntu and running it on a dedicated server on the cloud, I have opened the required port number and I started the et server using this command

etded

I get this out put and the server shuts down

Can some one please help me understand why is it shutting down. Or is there a guide that i can follow to start the server?

Thanks,

etded requires a map to be loaded, try
“etded +map oasis”

I ran the command with these parameters

"etded +set com_hunkmegs 512 +exec campaigncycle.cfg +set net_ip “my IP” +exec server.cfg

if it’s on your home network, it will only show as local to you

Hello
No home, it runs on a cloud server, I think problem is missing ‘+set fs_game name-of-the-mod’ .
And on command line, don’t exec campaigncycle, you must write it at the end of server.cfg, just before watchdog.
Catch my email in profile I will help you man!
Bye

You can exec any cfg you want in command line. Does not matter. watchdog message happens if no map is loaded.
Command line for windows batch file (one I use for infected mod):


"C:\Program Files (x86)\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territorysrv\ETDED.exe" +set fs_game infected +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 192.168.0.10 +set net_port 27962 +fs_homepath C:\Program Files (x86)\Wolfenstein - Enemy Territorysrv +set sv_maxclients 64 +pb_sv_disable +set com_hunkmegs 128 +exec server.cfg

Take note that et servers wont showup in the server list if they are empty.
