Dedicated Server HOW-TO

[O_TaipaN]

It's taking the lowest IP in the list.

No settings I saw.

Quad core with hyper threading.

We set affinity 2 cores for ROF server, other 2 for CloD that saved most issues

I managed to launch my server with the command -server +si_name "your server name here", but the server name does not appear even adding +hostname, as well as unable to configure the number of players...


How do I configure these settings?

I have an I7 950

I want to place "SET processAffinityMask "85" in the conf.ini

Where exactly do i paste this?

in conf.ini (in the My Documents/1C Soft Club/Il-2 CoD/ folder

paste it under [rts]:

[rts]
tickLen=30
ProcessAffinityMask=85
maxTimerTicksInRealTick=20
.......

[Megahurt]

With what was already under RTS it now looks like this in the conf.ini:

[rts]
; 0 - not use, 1 - show cursor and not capture, 2 - not show cursor, and capture
mouseUse=2
; 0 - not use, 1 - use if hardware exist
joyUse=1
; 0 - not use, 1 - use if hardware exist
trackIRUse=1
tickLen=30
ProcessAffinityMask=85
maxTimerTicksInRealTick=20


Im hoping this will boost performance.

Looks correct.

I suspect that CPU is not an issue though. If you lok at it in Task Manager under 'Performance' I expect the cores are only running around 30-50%.

Your Graphics Card will be the limiting factor and you'll need at least 4Gb RAM, preferably 6+.

It takes time for your server to show up the first time. Best thing to do is have some people direct connect to the IP, port should be 27015

I've just read through this entire forum thread. Let me start by saying Ive been running game servers for the better part of 10 years including steam games. THIS setup, is much more complicated and convoluted than it needs to be. My appreciation to the community that is supporting the users to get this going. But this is basically a hack setup.

It will be less of a head ache for people that have desktop access to their personal machines or to a machine they rent. However, for people that rent machines that run an TCAdmin because they have different requirements, this is a nightmare to setup.

while I agree with you this was a better option than just giving up, it got servers up people in them and playing

Hello,

Some people have in RTS: ticklen=30.

: maxTimerTicksInRealTick=20

I haven't theses lignes. There are necessary ? And what is it used for ?

Thx for an answer
