Dedicated Server logger

[Nutty_101 0]

I am releasing a small utility that will allow you to log the console messages to a file and or post player connection or disconnects to a webserver. It will post Name, Date/time, Cd ID, Connect/Disconnect to a website via a url.

Contents of the read me.

Armed Assault Dedicated Server Logger.

This is a command line tool. To use this tool you will need to provide several arguments. Only one is required.

Arguments:

-filename {Server Exe filename}

The filename argument is to provide the software the location of armed assaults dedicated server exe. This argument is required

-logname {path and Filename of logfile}

The logname argument is used to log the console messages to a text file. This file is not locked and can be processed by another program. If you want the logs named by date just add %DATE to the line and it will toss in a date formated 05-28-07. May 28th 2007.

-player {Url {0}=Date/Time,{1}=PlayerName,{2}=CdID,{3}={0=Connect/1=Disconnect}}

This will cause the system to post the player connect & disconnect events to a URL of your choice. You will need to insert the argument markers as noted above. They have to be in the brackets to work. The {3} will return a 0 or a 1. A 0 means the user connected, a 1 means the user has disconnected from the server.

Here is a quick example of running the program with file logging by date in the logs folder (Must be created) and posting the events to a website at arma.someplace.com.

Example: Armaded.exe -filename arma_server.exe -logname Logs\DLOG-%DATE.LOG -player http://arma.someplace.com/user.php?id=123123&joined={0}&name={1}&cdid={2}&action={3}

Requirements:

Dot Net 2.0 - Should have this anyway.

Link: Offline for moment.

Yeah, i have started to include version files with all my releases from now on. So people can see what changes were made. You should see this in the latest pid poster/logger file.
