Re: no i did that

firstly lance, id not recomend running halflife on a port that is usually used for ftp, this could cause problems in the future..  its usually best to run your server on the default 27015 port, then if someone were to type    connect 193.63.48.193    *if that was your ip)  and they didnt put a port it would default to 27015  cos thats the default hl port..   remember if you want to uninstall a fire daemon service it is done frmo the fire daemon exe in a dos prompt, you do like a switch i thik its something like       firedaemon.exe -u "servicename"   you should look that up..   admin mod,   well the basic description can be found on admin mod home page, its not to much hastle to set up and may add a bout an extra 10 or 20 ping to the players on your server at certain periods in time, but whats cool about admin mod is it allows you to use commands to help you admin your server better, including fun commands..   it is a on going dvelopment and the plugins are open source , meaning, if you know c small and can leanr the basic structure of plugins for admin mod you can code you own commands, whether it be  admin_imatroll or   admin_redirect..   anything you can imagine providing you can think of a way it can be coded within the halflife engines limits.   another key feature to admin mod is the ability to give different won id's different levels of admin access..  this is extrememly handy if you want to give clan members or certain poeple access to select commands in admin mod..   also your shortcut is sliughtly wrong, the map you should set in    autoexec.cfg     put a line in the autoexec.cfg file in the mod directory like the follwoiung without the quotes:   map de_dust   also the max players is set in autoexec.cfg file too  (remember to edit   autoexec.cfg with notepad)   so you need another line in there   maxplayers 16     also your swicth theres spaces after the +'s    it should be that without spaces..   so all fire daemon needs for its switches is   hlds.exe -game cstrike   reason i did not include -port 27015   is becos it defaults to that port anyhow..     oh yeh, if there isnt a autoexec.cfg in cstrike folder, just make one, all it needs to be is a text document with those lines in, then saved as   .cfg   i hope this helps..     Dan       ----- Original Message ----- From: Lance Pehrson To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2001 10:53 PM Subject: no i did that I put in -game cstrike +maxplayers 16 + port 21 + map de_dust   -----Original Message----- From: Bryan Socha [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2001 3:45 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: RE: need help   sounds like you forgot to give it a starting map -----Original Message----- From: Lance Pehrson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, September 27, 2001 5:38 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: need help Ok I have a problem, I did the firedaemon setup and now have hlds and firedaemon running in my task list. Also when I go look at my services I have firedaemon:cs 'started' and my server is still down. Now keep in mind that I must run on port 21 "SSSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHH" and it works just fine if you run the hlds.exe with -port 21 appended. I added that to the command line parameters in the firedaemon setup and I even checked them in the registry. And the -port 21 was there. Is it for sure executing that command or is that a command that it is for some reason unable to execute through firedaemon? Lastly I have w2k SP2 I read that this program works with SP1 so is that my whole problem? If so what can I do to make this work on SP2? Thank you soooooo much I want to get this done before I go home.
