[mohaa] Problems starting server?

Hi drew!!

I would highly recommend removing ALL your custom maps and just for starters have only PAK0 - PAK6.pk3 load and see if you get it up and running, then 1 by 1 put your custom maps back in. I've had a few custom maps that I had to go in and fix because they were causing problems with my server. Mostly due to lazy or in-experienced map makers double-caching files, which would flood my console with the caching error statement not allowing me to see any 'status' command results because the error messages kept flying by the screen effectively erasing the results not to mention eating memory while doing so.

> [drew at mohaa MOHAA]$ ./mohaa_lnxded +set dedicated 1 +set cheats 0 +set ui_console 1 +set g_gametype 2 +set sv_maxclients 8 +set developer 2 +set map dm/mohdm1 >+exec Server.cfg

Every email in this forum I've seen says to set dedicated to 2:

+set dedicated 2

Not a biggy, but if your not going to enable cheats then you don't need to put it in your command line, I believe its off by default.

Now I'm not sure on this one 100%, but +set ui_console 1 I believe is not needed when you're running a dedicated server.


My command line looks like this:

[john at mohaa MOHAA]$ ./mohaa_lnxded +set dedicated 2 +set g_gametype 2 +set sv_maxclients 12 +set developer 2 +exec serverXX.cfg

Everything else is set in my serverXX.cfg file... eg maplist, hostname etc

Hope this helps you with your troubleshooting!!

  Hope someone can help me as i am having difficulties getting this test server up and running. I am using Mandrake 8.2 with a nvidia TNT Pro 2 video card and the latest drivers are installed. Here's what happens when i start the game. Like I said I am hoping for some help here and any feedback would be appreicated. 

  Thanks.
