Is it possible to limit specific classes in the config files? For example running a rifleman only server. Or, would you need to remove the classes/weapons in the map itself and rebuild like with the mod/ost?

We have a Xeon 3.2Gig Server, running Server 2008 (Hyperthreaded) so therefore it shows as four cores, when really there are only 2 physical CPU's.

If I wanted to assign RO2 to the second CPU, should the command be this?

-PREFERPROCESSOR=2,3

as the first CPU would be 0,1 I guess?

or does the hyperthreading count as one core in this instance?

My understanding is that it doesn't take hyperthreading into account. For instance I have a dual quad core so have 16 cores showing. I want it running on the 3,4 core so my setting has been -PREFERPROCESSOR=1

Seeing as you only have the two real cores I would say yours would be either -PREFERPROCESSOR=0 for the first core or -PREFERPROCESSOR=1 for the second.

No - You need to ensure that you place your server on either 0/1. 2/3, 4/5 or 6/7.

You can't use a hyper thread alone as the game with windows will only pick up a physical cores..

So if you were to use 1 server on core 0 and another on core 1 windows will give you some severe lag as it tries to shift the server on core 1 to physical core 2.

Actually, I have a feeling I have COMPLETELY misunderstood this now. :eek:

If were only referring to PHYSICAL cores, and we have two SINGLE core Xeons, then we only have core0 and core1, in which case I want to add

-PREFERPROCESSOR=1 to use the second CPU yeah? :confused:

Everyone,


[OnlineSubsystemSteamworks.OnlineSubsystemSteamworks]
bUseVAC=true

It is highly recommended that you do this to help catch/prevent cheating on your servers.

So if you disable VAC that will enable PB which i would like to run so i can stream the server at PBBANs. If not were do you enable PB. I looked and see were you can turn or shut off VAC, but i didnt see anything that would refer to turning on PB.

I ve got a StartCMD:
start c:\files\redorchestra2\Binaries\win32\ROGame TE-Apartments?minplayers=32 -seekfreeloadingserver -configsubdir=..\..\..\..\gameservers\1\ROGame\config -multihome XXXXX-port 7777

But it dont works. It even dont works if it change to:

start c:\files\redorchestra2\Binaries\win32\ROGame TE-Apartments?minplayers=32 -seekfreeloadingserver -configsubdir=c:\gameservers\1\ROGame\config -multihome XXXXX-port 7777

How do i use the configssubdir-command if i want the server to load configs from c:gameserver\any_number\.... ?

Another commandline option that you will likely need:
-configsubdir=<serverfoldername> will create a folder under ..\ROGame\config\ so each server instance can have it's own ini files if running multiple server instances out of the same install folder
So -configsubdir=server1 , -configsubdir=server2 etc. subdir. not "full path".


And yes, Sandy Bridge is the least you'll need to host a 64 player server. Well, dunno how a regular old i7 at 4ghz will do, but. Yeah.
My i7 920 is hosting 32 players (admitteldy via Wine). Much more and it starts crapping out.

Hello!
Prompt how to remove the message at destruction of walls and gate. The message after explosion of gate or walls very much disturbs an aiming.
