jimos 10 Posted September 12, 2013 Hello, i got my self a dedicated server with blue fang today and ive tried to install BEC to it but it doesnt seem to work, im logged in as admin and the !hlp commands etc dont work so ive obviously done something wrong. but also the normal #lock commands etc also dont work. Does anyone have a BEC folder from their server which they can give me to use on mine becuase i dont know how to configure it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swanson 10 Posted September 12, 2013 are you running the BEC.exe file? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimos 10 Posted September 12, 2013 How do you mean. ive uploaded it to the server do i run it on my local machine too? ah i just run that and i have a message at the top saying missing f-switch need config file to start up do i also need to make the folder on my local machine to get it to work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Swanson 10 Posted September 12, 2013 yes, once you are done configuring you need to run a cmd prompt and point to where you have the BEC folder located then type Bec.exe -f MyConfig.cfg and then create a windows service so the BEC.exe file restarts automatically pretty much everything is explained on this page Jeff and Jose from bluefang are cool guys and easy to get along with, if nothing else then go talk to either of them and see if they can assist further Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Swanson 10 Posted September 12, 2013 yup after the -f prompt type the name of your config.cfg file located in BEC in the target line of the shortcut you placed on your desktop add -f Config.cfg or whatever the name of the cfg file is Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
