PowerServer & OFPMonitor: Multiplayer without Gamespy

[Przemek_kondor 13]

That's the list (master.ofpisnotdead.com) master server provides: http://kondor.armagame.pl/php/get_ofp_servers.php?masterUrl=master.ofpisnotdead.com:28900

 

@krzychuzokecia

There's no 80** IP there, meaning your OFPMonitor probably has cached it

[[lol]clan killer bee 1]

Yah think so mine is not in that list.

Problem is how we get it in the ofp monitor and the webpage ?

Ps .

Think it is cool there are peeps keeping this website up  🤩

Why don't you try hosting on a different computer and different internet connection to isolate the problem

Aiming to fit the 2.01 Arma Resistance by [4RTech], I modify the OFPMonitor 1.7.4.0 and make the ArmAMonitor 1.7.4.1, supporting 2.01 games start and automation. The program is on github and pulled request.

[Przemek_kondor 13]

Nice, but not sure if the name should be modified and the OFPMonitor is missing an explicit license meaning this applies https://help.github.com/en/github/creating-cloning-and-archiving-repositories/licensing-a-repository

[Przemek_kondor 13]

Is master.ofpisnotdead.com down? (OFPMonitor works but I guess it uses its servers list cache for now)

 

[edit] confirmed - after OFPMonitor reinstall it's empty

Connection refused 111 (http://kondor.armagame.pl/php/get_ofp_servers.php?masterUrl=master.ofpisnotdead.com:28900)

I hope this is only temporary. 😱

 

OFP Monitor is what kept MP play going for so long.

 

Maybe Rozek can help with a new Master Server?

[krzychuzokecia 717]

I see that master.ofpisnotdead.com is responding, so probably crisis averted.

 

However, in case of emergency @mcslavko of [PR] Polish Resistance, had set up a second Master Server at 185.102.190.8

It is hosted on the same server as PR game server, so it should run 24/7.

 

If you're a game server admin and want your server to report to [PR] Master Server, change following value in your server.cfg

reportingIP="185.102.190.8";

If you're player and want to see servers reporting to [PR] Master Server, open OFP Monitor settings dialog, go to Master servers tab, and click "Add new server domain" (top button). Type 185.102.190.8 and click "OK". After closing settings window press [F5] on keyboard - after few seconds you should see servers reporting to [PR] Master Server, and any other Master Server you have in OFP Monitor list.

 

@poweruser if you see this, you can update your master server list on GitHub.

Server crashed and did not restarted. Feel free to ping me directly when it happens again. I got email from LP to inform me about the problem.

ℹ️PowerServer 1.3.0 was released at https://github.com/simi/PowerServer/releases/tag/1.3.0.

 

- now it can dump all active servers to text file

- for master.ofpisnotdead.com, this file is exposed at https://master.ofpisnotdead.com/servers.txt and updated each 5 minutes

- that means no more GameSpy protocol to get serverlist

 

I'll work on more enhancements soon. Stay tuned!

Hi, I recently created a server based on: ColdWarAssault_Server.exe the config file is set up correctly as it seems to me. TCP / UDP ports open: 2302 - 2306 I raised the server for Arma 2, everything worked for me and the players saw my server, but the time came and I decided to move to Arma: Cold War Assault. Can you please give concise instructions on how to add my server to the OFP Monitor list. Or you need to use a different kernel to create the server beside: ColdWarAssault_Server.exe
P.S sorry for my eglish. There is so much discussion on the forum that I didn't understand much.

@HCoder as mentioned in first post of this thread, you need to add

reportingIP="master.ofpisnotdead.com";

to your server config file (that one where you put server name, password, ...).

 

If you'll have problems, feel free to join https://discord.gg/agh3nnce, I'm in there with another OFP players and we can help you in there.

o well i got problem i dont know how to port foward since im beginner of Server hosting i wanna know how to port foward so i can host a server in reportingIP="master.ofpisnotdead.com"

[zulu1 145]

Hi,

 

There was a good tutorial on the web, but it's gone I guess. You'll need to be able to log into your router via a browser.

Link  Check this site it seems to cover the basics. You basicly need to open some TCP and UDP ports that the game uses to communicate through.

hi. ofp monitor doesnt refresh serverlist

 

[poweruser 10]

I've set up a temporary back up, until retro gets around to check what's wrong.

 

Update: Main server is back up. Shutting down the backup

[retrocz 30]

@poweruser sadly I was on holidays when the problem occurred. Feel free to ping me if you would like to get access as well to the server.

Hello everyone,

 

I have a few questions that are probably idiotic to the majority of you, but I am stuck, and I need someone to lend me a hand.

 

Recently I've been trying to set up a server Arma CWC (steam version), for me and a few friends, but to no avail.

So the questions are:

 

•  To use the master server, do I need to have my ports forwarded?
• Where do I find the server files? (In root folder of the game I found dedicated server but server.cfg is empty)
• Can I get an invitation to someone's discord who could lend me a hand, since I have no idea what I am doing.

 

Sorry for wasting your time here.
