Server High speed re-direct

Cat_in_da_Hat · Oct 8, 2011

In anticipation for new maps from modders, does RO2 have provisions for external map loading like the previous game. High speed redirect or whatever it was called. You know when you could put your maps on another url so players download from that site not the game server.

Very good question. Was wondering about this as well.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Oct 9, 2011

that was for ro1, but will it work on ro2 ?

Cat_in_da_Hat · Oct 9, 2011

i might find some time during the week to test it out by deleting a map file on my local and setting up a redirect on one of my servers. I still have a redirect from DH days.

Later in the week though. Will post back here how it goes.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Nov 30, 2011

Shameless bump is shameless.

But it would be good to get this sorted so when new maps are out servers can be ready.

Or does RO2 work differently?

Zetsumei · Dec 1, 2011

unless TWI changed things in the redirect stuff it should be the same as in UT3 which is the same as in UT2k4 and ROOST.

We just might see maps having to be submitted to TWI for approval and then released via Steam.

Oh my. So the first new maps are expected in 2014.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 4, 2011

I just tested this by deleting a stock map, loading it to my redirect server and seeing if it will down load. It didn't work.

It would also not download the map from the game server even when AllowDownloads=True so I don't think new maps are going to work the usual way unless this is fixed. So end of 2014.

Game server:

\ro2\rogame\config\ROEngine

Will this work? who knows, we just need to wait and see, i don't have a redirect so i can't test it.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 5, 2011

Maj Day I have a redirect server and it didn't work. Though I didn't include the ProxyServerHost= and also ProxyServerPort=3128 so that might be the problem. I will try again at some point with that.

But what concerns me more is that when i deleted a map on my local machine it was not download from any game server as it would normally be.

Try it for yourself Maj Day. Even the error message isn't popping up in my face I have to hit escape to see it (though you can hear it being presented)

Something is not right with this and it would be great to get that fixed before people start releasing new maps.

I am so keen to host new maps on my server so anyone that wants a live testing ground for maps let me know !

Major_Day · Dec 5, 2011

Those settings were based on the RO1/UT3 settings, so were as much a guess as anything else.
RO1 used a cache file on the client, but as far as i can tell, their is no cache file in RO2, we need to wait on TWI telling us where the custom files should be downloaded to.

Try creating a custom maps folder on the client:
my documents etc etc.\ro2\rogame\cookedpcserver\CustomMaps\

and try this on the server;

RedirectToURL=http://www.yourserver.com/RO2/Custommaps/

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 9, 2011

A clever chap has ported Ogldow into RO2 so I am playing around with this a little to see if I can get it working on a sever. Will also try to get the redirect working. Do you think i need a custom maps folder, why not just put it next to all the other maps.

I'll post my learnings here.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 10, 2011

Seems that when you put a files in a folder off cookpcserver (cookedpcserver/Custom) the game server will not start.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 10, 2011

Get this in the error log.

[0000.11] Error: Error, Ambiguous package name: Using 'C:\UserFiles\MattB\179\ROGame\CookedPCServer\custom\GBS-Ogledow.upk', not 'C:\UserFiles\MattB\179\ROGame\CookedPCServer\GBS-Ogledow.upk'

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 10, 2011

still not working for me.

This is what i have done so far.

added the below to the ROGame.ini

[TE-Ogledow_B1 ROUIDataProvider_MapInfo]
MapName=TE-Ogledow_B1
FriendlyName=Ogledow_B1
GameType=ROGame.ROGameInfoTerritories
PreviewImageMarkup=<Images:ui_textures.menus.HostGame.ui_hostgame_mapselect_ComHouse>
Description=Ogledow_B1 Map
LoadMapMovie=LoadScreen_Commissars
MapTips=TECommissarsTip1
MapTips=TECommissarsTip2
MapType16=ROMT_InfantryOnly
MapType32=ROMT_CombinedArms
MapType64=ROMT_CombinedArms

[Ogledow_B1 ROUIDataProvider_WorldInfo]
MapName=Ogledow_B1
FriendlyName=Ogledow_B1
PreviewImageMarkup=<Images:ui_textures.menus.HostGame.ui_hostgame_mapselect_Ogledow_B1>
Description=Ogledow_B1 Map

Also changed this

GameMapCycles=(Maps=("TE-Apartments","TE-Spartanovka","TE-CommissarsHouse","TE-RedOctoberFactory","TE-Station","TE-Barracks","TE-GrainElevator","TE-PavlovsHouse","TE-Ogledow_B1"),RoundLimits=(0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0))

To include Ogledow.

and added

TerritoryMaps[10]=(Maps=("TE-Ogledow_B1"))

Works for me, and it should be \ro2\rogame\cookedpcserver\CustomMaps\ (all backslashes)
Simply putting a new folder into the server files shouldn't prevent the server from starting, i also put a RO map in the custommaps folder,you must have changed something else as well.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 10, 2011

So you put GBS-Ogledow.upk in the CustomMaps folder and TE-Ogledow_B1 in the folder along with all the other maps ?

yes got my back spaces around the wrong way in my post.

Major_Day · Dec 10, 2011

All this has to be put on hold until we figure out how to make the map work on a dedi server.
I've tried putting the files in every folder, but the map still refuses to load.

Cat_in_da_Hat · Dec 10, 2011

I have a few hours free this morning so I am going to keep trying a little longer.

Did you make the changes to your ROGame.ini as I did. From my error log it seems like the map is being found, but it crashes after that.

I am just uploading theB2 version and will see what that does.

This is my error log for B1.
