Install instructions for the new linux patch

Recommended Posts

Operation Flashpoint: Resistance - Linux Standalone Server 1.91c

================================================================

Copyrigt © 2002 Bohemia Interactive Studio and Codemasters. All rights reserved.

   Installation instructions:

   ==========================

1. Following programs must have been installed on your Linux-box:

 uudecode, gunzip, gcc. Optional: md5sum (for setup integrity check)

2. Copy the whole "OperationFlashpoint" directory from Windows

 to some Linux-directory (OFP). DON'T DO ANY DATA CONVERSIONS

 (even "dos2unix" translation of text files is not necessary).

 Example: you can use PKZIP (WinZip, PowerArchiver, etc.) on

 Windows and "unzip" on Linux.

    Don't use upper case letters in the OFP directory name

 (/home/bob/ofp will be good, /home/bob/OperationFlashpoint

 may cause some troubles).

    OFP directory should contain subdirectories "Addons", "Bin",

  "Campaigns", etc.

3. Copy the "server-x.xx.shar.gz" (x.xx is version number) file into

 the OFP directory. Unpack and install it with commands:

 ofp$ gunzip server-x.xx.shar.gz

 ofp$ sh server-x.xx.shar

 Watch the messages - they will inform you whether your installation

 is successful.

4. Dedicated server can be started in foreground:

 ofp$ ./server

 Or in background:

 ofp$ nohup ./server > out.txt 2> err.txt &

 [1] <pid>

5. Running server can be stopped by pressing CTRL+C (foreground)

 or by executing:

 $ kill -s SIGINT <pid>

 Where <pid> is process-id of mother server thread (printed out in

 "nohup" command).
