PitViper 0 Posted July 5, 2002 Found this on another form and thought I'd post it here for anyone interested: Navigate to the System dir of America's Army Make a copy of Default.ini and rename the copy to hoho.ini Open hoho.ini and make the following changes: Find localmap=Entry.aao and change it to localmap=Pipeline.aao (there are a variety of options, look in the map dir for more maps) Find the line that says ServerActors=UTelnet.TelnetServer and comment it out (add a ; before the line) Create a batch file in the System directory with the following line: armyops.exe -server ini=hoho.ini Run the batch file. Now, this will create a dedicated server which people can join. To connect to another server, pull down the console and type 'open <ip>' If you want the server listed on GameSpy Arcade, the .ini should look like this: ServerActors=IpDrv.UdpBeacon ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerQuery ;ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerUplink MasterServerAddress=master.gamespy.com MasterServerPort=27900 DoUplink=True ;ServerActors=UWeb.WebServer ;ServerActors=UTelnet.TelnetServer Some more settings: Regardless of what the .ini says, default join port is 1617 Settings for max clients is under [Engine.GameInfo] as MaxPlayers=x. The Admin password can be set under Engine.AccessControl. Maximum Client Rate and such settings are under IpDrv.TcpNetDriver. A comment from the TW forums on rate: "I hosted a 6 player server off 45k/sec capped cable with a max rate of 7500. The players all pinged anywhere from 80-150. From experimentation, 5000-7500 is definitely playable. " You can set the Server Name and MOTD and other settings under under ]Engine.GameReplicationInfo] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
