Hi all..i'm thinking of setting up a 2nd game server on the same box..and this information is great. Now I need to know how do I set up a second set of logs for the 2nd server? Plus, this damn new version of CS 1.3 sucks...along with the HL 1108. Damn thing crashes so much it isn't even funny anymore. Why couldn't valve have left it alone at HL 1107 and CS 1.1? It was great never had any crashes with it....sigh...
Anyways, any help or info on setting up the logs will be appreciated. Need this for the stats webbie, although half of my logs r useless due to excessive crashing. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of HoundDawg Sent: Tuesday, October 16, 2001 8:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [hlds] Multiple Servers & Different Map Cycles on one box? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Stan Hoeppner" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > So, if he's running 2 CS servers, on his target lines he would have > something like these:? > > c:\half-life\hlds.exe -game cstrike > c:\half-life\hlds.exe -game cstrike -port 27016 -servercfgfile server1.cfg > -mapcyclefile mapcycle1.txt > > The 1st would default to the standard file names of server.cfg and > mapcycle.txt, and the default port of 27015. The 2nd is self explanatory. You're correct. I just like to be more consistent with my servers and files. > What about other shared files, such as the motd.txt, etc?

Well, if you look at my last example lines again, you'll notice that the third param is "+motdfile motd_27015.txt". I believe that the rule of thumb with parameters is that actual HLDS parameters such as "port" and "game" use the "-" prefix while all commands used in console are prefixed with a "+". So, in your example above, just change the "-servercfgfile" and "-mapcyclefile" to "+servercfgfile" and "+mapcyclefile" accordingly. Maybe Valve can verify this confusion. Or, better yet, allow either the "+" or "-" to be used for all parameters. Ok, here is the list of parameters we have used during this thread: -game <mod directory name> -noipx <disable the IPX protocol which will eliminate the IPX check and error> -port <port used if not the default 27015> +exec <filename of file to execute located in the mod directory> +map <name of the map to start with located in the mod\maps directory> +mapcyclefile <filename of the mapcycle.txt file located in the mod directory> +maxplayers <number of players to set as the maximum> +motdfile <filename of the motd.txt file located in the mod directory> +servercfgfile <filename of the server.cfg file located in the mod directory> You can put maxplayers into the server.cfg file if you like. Also, I believe that if you want the "+servercfgfile" to be used during the first load, you have to do the "+exec" parameter with the same filename used in the "+servercfgfile".
