B.E.C. "Battleye Extended Controls" - Admin Tool

Recommended Posts

hehe you made my day!

i can. but thats something i will not spend time on implementing.

if you want something to create vehicles and stuff. i suggest you look into some admin consoles or make your own.. signe it with your own private key and put it on your server.

No. bec has no api to talk to the game script engine. and most likely never will.

i have thought about making a extension for arma where a namedpiped was used to communicated between bec and the mission. but since the script engine in arma is too easy to exploit, i droped this idea.. you could always check which admins are on by using the command "!ainf" or whatever you have called it.

Hi there,

i've tried to configure B.E.C. as you describe in your Documentation, but i will get always the message:

Login failed : Wrong password!

after that i've added the following Sentence to my Config.cfg file:

[bec]

...

Password = xxxxxxx

...

But still i get the error Message that this is the Wrong Password. I tried the inGame Login Password, the RCon Password, do somewhere else another exist i am didn't aware off?

Use the online docs,, the readme file may be outdated in some areas..

http://ibattle.org/install-and-configure/configure/

you dont use Password in the config file. it been replaced by BePath.

Minimal Config Example

[bec]

Ip = 127.0.0.1

Port = 2302

BePath = c:\foo\bar\Battleye

LogDir = Server1

Admins = Admins.xml

Commands = Commands.xml

New update available : Version 1.420 !! Thx nuxil !!

@ WoODoO: I think your problem is not BEC related. But here is our ACE2 + Lingor server script this works perfectly. Use it to compare it with your config and maybe you'll find your problem? Also remove the -world-=whatever and other params that are clienside only to see if that solves anything.

Was putting in a PM to Nuxil for the [Reporting] Ban Account to use for my newly installed BEC service for my DayZ Servers... then realized I needed at least a 2 post count to send the request PM to Nuxil. So rather than PM spam some other people, or the forum, I figured I'd keep it in the thread.

So far so good on this install/setup... just took about 30 minutes.

Hello,

we have installed this tool today on our servers.

The BEServer.cfg is in the expansion/battleeye dir, also wie have verifiyed it and the admins too.

So now when we want to login over the Arma2 RCon 1.8.3 it say "Could not connect"

Are there something we have made wrong?

you dont log into bec with other rcons.

but if you get "Could not connect" with the Arma2 RCon 1.8.3 tool, its most likely that your server is using the wrong BEServer.cfg

check your mod line of the server. if you see something called -profiles=C:\somedir go to c:\somedir\Battleye and edit/create the BEServer.cfg file

or if it has -bepath=C:\somepath do same here.

you can also check out the wiki http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/BattlEye

@Donny:

-This is the BEC department not the RCon dep.!

-Make sure BE is running and you can access it with a password > How to

-Make sure the BEC runs your config: shortcut link: "C:\Program Files (x86)\Bohemia Interactive\BEC\Bec.exe" -f yourserverconfig.cfg ,it has a password setup and is pointed to the right folder

Tip: Scheduler = Scheduler.xml is not yet in the example config. but i was able to find on the 'Configure Bec' page.

question: Is there an easy way to start B.E.C. with the A2 server true a script of some kind etc.?

Thank you, will try it out :)

We thought that we can use Rcon to login, but it seems like we have to be on the server right?

i think you can use a bat script.

im not a expert on bat. but heres a quick and dirty methode

create a dir. E.g A2startup

make a shortcut for you arma server into the directory

make a shortcut for your bec into the directory

create a bat file. E.e startup.bat.

put this in it.

@echo off
start "" "server.lnk"
start "" "bec.lnk"

What exactly does this mean as I cannot get the latest build running. When I move the executable out of the directory I have setup and try to start it up with -f nothing happens.

Error :: For security reasons Bec will not work from inside the server directory

.

You need to move Bec out from the server directory for it to be operational.

BEC is currently setup as c:\BEC

I dont know if the following error both our ArmA2 and Combined Ops. had this morning are related:

Both servers run on the same machine but BEC crashed at two different but almost identical times 07:39 & 07:24 with latest version (Bec, Arma2 Server Tool V.1.430)! After i restarted the BEC tool it has run fine for the rest of the day!

Arma2 crash:

I'm not able to get the new version working either; I've tried putting the BEC folder pretty much in every location possible.

Is there something else I should be moving 'out of the server directory'? I never had BEC in there to begin with though...
