Windows KF Dedicated Server Tutorial

[arramus]

I don't know how to do that sorry.

However, it's quite easy to key bind. Simply open the console and add, for example:

SET INPUT m adminlogin <password>

This will edit your:
C:\Program Files\Steam\steamapps\common\killingfloor\System\U ser.ini file.

alternatively you can add the admin commands to that file directly. For example:
N=admin adminsay Feed them cakes!

You can manually remove or edit binds from that file at your convenience.

Hi guys, i have another question, how to made sandbox games?

Because on solo games is very easy:



But in a server ??? On web admin you got this:



But there i cant configure the wave options... maybe something in the console or in the .ini?

And another question, i dont have music on custom maps, in solo game yes, but in server no, for example, the hive, i make a new folder on the server for music but it doesnt work.

I'm having a problem with my webadmin, I change the login details to the .bat file. I restart the server and I still cannot login to web admin at all. Says incorrect password etc.

In the KillingFloor.ini under [KFMod.KFGameType] there are multiple Waves[1]= > Waves[15]= listed. There is a WaveMaxMonsters= value in there as well.

I assume you've set the web admin to enabled and opened the ports for access. Can you post your complete command line for the launch .bat please and if necessary can you allow someone you trust with your login details to make a login attempt as well?

ucc server KF-BioticsLab.rom?game=KFmod.KFGameType?VACSecured=true?MaxPlayers=6?AdminName=dasweb?AdminPassword=xxxxx

but when I login to my game server provider the command line they have set is:

server KF-BioticsLab.rom?game=KFmod.KFGameType?VACSecure=tru e?MaxPlayers=6 ini=KillingFloor.ini multihome=209.246.170.15 port=7707 log=Gameservers.log -nohomedir

I tried making a new thread for the Lag issue, but it either didn't go through, or hasn't been approved by an admin yet. Anyway

My dedicated server is being run on the Same computer that i am playing Killing floor on. I've got a Q6600 Quad core processor, 2 gigs RAM, 450 Gigs hard drive space, 8800 GTS Graphics card.

Do i need to be running the dedicated server on it's own isolated machine, or is it really a problem running it on my desktop computer? In truth, I think its my router, and i plan to reset it and refoward the ports after this post, and hopefully that helps something. Thanks for the help.

It's better to have the server on a standalone dedicated PC but your specs are sufficient to power an instance sufficiently.

What's your internet connection like?

NVM found a compressing tool,

but now my problem is that after getting wiped and the mapvote comes the custom map "prison" doesn't show up even tho it says in my KF.ini:

[DefaultKF MaplistRecord]
DefaultTitle=Default KF
DefaultGameType=KFMod.KFGameType
DefaultActive=3
DefaultMaps=KF-BioticsLab
DefaultMaps=KF-Manor
DefaultMaps=KF-WestLondon
DefaultMaps=KF-Offices
DefaultMaps=KF-Farm
DefaultMaps=KF-Prison

Any ideas?

[Dasweb]

Can anyone take a look at my post above and see what I'm doing wrong to activate the web admin ;/

[arramus]

If you're willing to PM me all of your server details and let me login to your server to take a look then I'll be able to see how it's set up.

My Steam and Xfire are arramus.

I have a question here.

Is it possible to setup a dedicated slot for admins? So if my server is full im still able to join? As well, does any one know a full list of admin commands?

note: I'm not running a dedicated server.

Any help would be appreciated. Also, thanks for this thread, it was helpful

So, I compressed some maps, uploaded them to fileden as you suggested and then edited the .ini the way eveything should be. Enter my server, change the map, and it still downloads from the game server. I reopen the .ini and the redirect URL has been deleted. I've tried deleted the .ini and uploading a new one and when the map changes, it wipes the redirect URL again. Any ideas on how to fix this so that it will stay?

[arramus]

You stopped the server before uploading the new .ini with the URL changes right?

[Zekerage]

Thanks Arramus, I added you to my Steam friends to hopefully expediate this process, and maybe to hit you up for a couple of games :P. Anyway, i'm pretty sure it's 6-8Meg DSL if i remember correctly, but in truth, i have no more than a guess.

Apparently not, cause I did this time and the URL stayed. Thanks.

Use ServerExt http://forums.tripwireinteractive.co...ead.php?t=3583
It works for me.
But with this Plugin you have to connect twice. The first connect will kick players in the order you set up in the WebInterface. The second connect will you allow to enter the now 1 slot free server.
