FAQ - Call of Duty 1, 2, and 4

How do I setup the control panel for different mods and/or configs?

For COD 1 and 2 let us pretend you are installing a mod called codmod that has a folder called codmod and a config file called myconfig.cfg.

For COD 4 let us pretend you are installing a mod called cod4mod that has a folder called cod4mod and a config file called myconfig.cfg.

1.

For COD 1 and 2 the mod folder must be in your cod directory, not under main - it has to be on the same level as main.

cod/main
cod/codmod

For COD 4 the mod folder must be under a mods directory that in your cod4 directory -- it cannot be on the same level as main.

For example:

cod4/main
cod4/mods/cod4mod

2.

For COD 1 and 2 the myconfig.cfg must have a map command (such as map_rotate) to kickstart the server.

For COD 4 the myconfig.cfg must only have a map rotation but no map command to kickstart the server, otherwise it will crash. The kickstart map must be defined in the Edit Config of your control panel.

3.

For COD 1 and 2, you need to change the following in your control panel Edit Config:

server_mod_directory="main"

to the mod directory's name:

server_mod_directory="codmod"

For COD 4, you need to change the following in your Edit Config:

server_mod_directory=""

to the mod directory's name:

server_mod_directory="mods/cod4mod"

4.

Please note some mod's require the forced loading of their own .so (dll) files - particularly server side mods.

If a mod requires something such as +set vm_game 0, you can change the following in your control panel:

server_vm=""

to:

server_vm="vm_game 0"

If it requires additional vm options, the format is as such, for example:

server_vm="vm_game 0 +set vm_game 1 +set vm_game 2"

5.

You need to change this:

server_config1="basic.cfg"

to

server_config1="myconfig.cfg"

6.

You also need to change:

rcon_password="insertserverrconpasswordhere"

Update it with your myconfig.cfg's rcon password. If you do not do this, your server will restart every 24 hours without a 5 minute countdown warning to players.

7. Click save and Start Config 1 - 4 (whichever was edited).

Please keep in mind this was all a part of an example scenario, and you will have to change folder and file names according to the mod and/or custom configuration you installed.
