[SOLVED] Dedicated Server Tools

[CC-1119 'Appo']

EDIT: Issues resolved, cheers for the responses, server runs now.

Hi all.
I had a look around and couldn't seem to find any tools specifically for hosting Moviebattles II servers, is there a dedicated server tool I can pick up somewhere? I've hosted servers before so I'm fairly familiar with how to set them up and get them to run online, just an issue of finding the tools and figuring out how to configure it now.

Would greatly appreciate a response, been meaning to throw together a semi-dedicated server for a while now.

Cheers in advance.

So I've managed to get this up and running as far as I can see the server in local and favourites yet it doesn't appear on the Internet tab, do I have to get the server listed there? I'm going to keep looking around but I can't see anything that should be causing issues, ports are open and the server runs flawlessly in LAN, just not on the internet list.

Server config file included in case it's something I didn't get right in there.

Cheers in advance for any support.

Your first master server is incorrect.

seta sv_master1 "master.moviebattles.org"

 

[CC-1119 'Appo']

I made the change and fired up the server, still nothing. The server did disappear from the Local section though, I'll have a look in the morning if there's any issues with the port-forwarding, if there's nothing else you could see that I may have missed.

 

[CC-1119 'Appo']

So I gave it another bash to see what I could get done but I'm having no luck, all the ports are active and allow traffic to pass through, I continue through with the following launch options for the server It just hosts a local (LAN) server that cannot be seen from the internet tab nor joined by people using my external IP, which, even if it could be joined via IP would not be ideal, hoping to get it onto the server browser for ease of access.

(jampDed.exe +set dedicated 2 +set net_port 28070 +set fs_game MBII +exec server.cfg)
I've included the parameters I use to launch the server that gives me the above issue, again that issue being that the server cannot be seen or interacted with by anyone but me, I was only able to produce results when I used another quake/JKA command, +set net_ip *IP* which did give me another error.

(jampDed.exe +set dedicated 2 +set net_ip 2.102.207.145 +set net_port 28070 +set fs_game MBII +exec server.cfg)
So above is again, the launch options for that screencap and the errors they provide, I had a look around on JK forums and Quake 3 forums and was unable to find any sort of common ground that would explain how to resolve said issue, I'm not exactly experienced with Jedi Academy's server setup so I'm pretty much stuck at the moment.

Would appreciate any input if anyone has any idea what the issue here is, I'm certain it's not port related though as those ports do indeed work when I'm using them for something else, just used said ports to host a Chivalry: Medieval Warfare server without fault the same as I would with my usual ports for that game.

Cheers.

Remove this line:
+set net_ip 2.102.207.145

Unless you are connected directly to modem(not router) with ability to route more than one IP Address.

EDIT: Scratch that, got it working. I don't know what changed but I just fired up the server again and I can see it on the Internet section and my friends are able to join it.

Thanks to both of you for your help.
