Another Redirect Issue

[TwoGun]

Hi, currently I'm running the Extreme X5 2.0 version.  Here is my command line:

CoDWaWmp.exe +set fs_localAppData "C:\Documents and Settings\Chris\Desktop\WaW Server" +set fs_game mods\ww_x5 +exec server.cfg +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 192.168.1.37 +set net_port 28960 +set sv_punkbuster 0 +map_rotate

Here is the server redirect section of the server.cfg file:

set sv_allowdownload "1"
seta sv_wwwDownload "1"
seta sv_wwwBaseURL "http://www.twogunsbattleground.net/CoD5"
seta sv_wwwDlDisconnected "0"

When I attempt to connect to the server from my seperate game machine I get the following error:

ERROR
File modsww_x5/mp_x5.iwd not found on server fro autodownloading.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding something on the line set sv_allowdownload "1".  I thought that setting this line to a value of "1" as the setup guide says to do would enable the download from the server rather than from the redirect that is enabled in the next line?  Am I misunderstanding this?

So I attempted to set it to "0" and I get a different error telling me that he mp_x5.iwd file needs to be obtained from some other source before connecting to the pure server.

I think however that the real issuse is the "modsww_x5" as it should read mods\ww_x5 but I cannot find anyplace where it exists like that.  However if you look at "Server Info" from the game machine it lists the mod as being modsww_X5.

Thanks for any help.

Hi TwoGun

Your command line is wrong.
Change " +set fs_game mods\ww_x5 to +set fs_game mods/ww_x5

[TwoGun]

Yep, that was it, thanks!  I now see that i've got more work to do however.   I can't get the end of game voting to work.  My map control looks like this:

//******************************************************************************
// End-of-game voting extension
//******************************************************************************
// Global switch for end-game map voting
// 0 = disable (default)
// 1 = enable
set ex_mapvote "1"

// Map vote memory capacity

// 0 = disabled (default)

Not sure what I have wrong that will not allow the end of game voting to occur.  Any ideas?

I also see that I don't appear to have the mod files downloaded to my game box.  There is no WW_X5 folder or X5.iwd file at all but everything seems to work and I can pick any weapons I want .


Thanks again.

Check in the server.cfg -- there are 2 ( I think ) g_allowvote and g_oldvote -- make sure those are turned ON

[TwoGun]

My server.cfg settings look like this:

// Voting
set g_allowVote "1"
set g_voteAbstainWeight "0.5"
set g_oldVoting "1"

That would be corrert I think, yet still no end of map voting.

Thanks

I have my server up of you any of the technically proficient are so inclined to jump on and take a look.  The current IP is 98.127.200.245 and the password is "shotgun".  You may also use "shotgun" to use the RCON command to end the current map.

Oddly if I remove the +map_rotate from the command line, the server still launches but incorrectly.  The game cannot be seen or connected to.

Thanks for any help.

Perhaps this infor taken from the console will give a clue?

The error claiming a potential for infinate loop my be the problem but I have no idea what to do to correct it.  I have not modified this file myself at all.?
Anybody?
