Configure the turok dedicated server



Download the T2Servers.rar which has included this server configurator! It allows you to setup your dedicated server without having the trouble to check out the gm.cfg all the time with notepad!



Have more than one config file

Usually u edit the 'gm.cfg' config file and start RT_SRV_WIN32.exe and GM_WIN32.exe to run the server. If you want to host sometimes an Arena, next time Rok Match or Rok Arena, it's good to have more config files. I do it this way: i got a folder "configs" there, and inside of that folder i got 'arena.cfg' 'rok.cfg' 'rokarena.cfg'. Then i made 3 bat files of the gm_win32.exe and edit that file with the command lines: (start notepad, write that line and save as gm_win32_arena.bat)



gm_win32.exe -config configs\arena.cfg

When i want to start an arena server, i just click on the gm_win32ARENA.bat and it automatically runs my server with the arena config :).

in the T2Servers.rar on this website, these bat files are available already.



Another Tip:

if you want to display your "own rules" for the server in gamespy, you can do it this way:

In the config file, write behind the CPU:



CPU=Pentium II 400/Windows NT \NewRule1\NewAttribute1 \NewRule2\NewAttribute2



Example:

CPU=Pentium II 400/Windows NT \WebSite\http://turok.forumactif.com \Banned\Player1,Player2,Player3



In Gamespy it will look like this:





Host Arena in Rok Match Levels (gm_win32crack)

If you want to do that, download the gm_win32modified.rar and use the gm_win32modifiedV2.exe instead of your old gm_win32.exe.

you can just write in the gm.cfg then

GameType=Team Arena LevelSet=Rok Match Levels without the gm_win32.exe telling you an error. You don't have a MaxPlayer limit anymore either, you can host for 666 Players now lol.



Kick

PlayerIPIDDec.exe is a prog to kick players from your dedicated server. Click 'Daten Holen' to get the Names and IPs. If it crashes, delete playerIPIDdec.ini and try again. You gotta have it in your T2Servers Folder.



Connecting Problems??

If you have problems connecting to Turok 2 servers and are using a ADSL modem with a built in firewall this might be the solution. This change fixes the World State Error.



Enter your modemsettings(usually with an ip in internet explorer), then open/allow UDP port 2010.

This will solve the World State Error and you will be able to play!



My server can't send to gamespy!!

if you receive this kind of messages in the gm_win32.exe console window:

*** WARNING: gethostbyname(master0.gamespy.com) failed. *** Cannot send heartbeats to GameSpy.

you might try to download this gm_win32.exe with qtracker support , which will hopefully solve your problems!



Tip for the integrated server

If you host Integrated, your Fraglimit is limited to 99, the arena Health is 100, and you can't host an Arena in Rok Levels...

Here's a way to solve the problem. Go to your turok folder and edit the integrated.cfg file with a text editor. Write everything that you want in it, for example if you want to host a Arena in Rok Match Levels with health 1 and a Fraglimit of 100 write:

... LevelSet=Rok Match Levels GameType=Arena ArenaHealth=-99 Fraglimit=100 ... save it and make this file 'read only'!

When you start your server now, it doesn't matter what you type in the game launcher, turok will use the configuration from that 'read only' file :).



Funny shit in Control Room

Host an arena in control room with ArenaHealth=-9999.

Then when you walk on the red line which is around the arena, you'll die lol. "..came to an untimely end" hehehe
