How do I make new PAM modes?

[PapaSmurf]

Hi,
Does anybody know how to set up new PAM modes? We're starting a new competition for just deathmatch (we currently have a pam mode for s&d). I have no idea what to change though.

I know all the settings I want, and I've made a rule file - do I just put the rule config in the pam/rules/dm/ path inside the z_svr_rules_deathmatch.iwd file?

If I'm making any sense, I'd really appreciate some feedback. I've posted on wormswold.net as well but haven't gotten any response yet.

Thanks!
PapaSmurf.

It sounds like you know how to create the .iwd file and all.

But I think you need to edit one of the pam modes to fit your rules.

For example if you look inside the z_svr_pam401.iwd you will find a bunch of rules in the pam/rules/dm folder. Extract one of the four pam mode files in that folder ( pam1.gsc, pam2, pam3 or pam4 ) to your desktop.

Edit the file with the rule set you want to use and save it.

Then create your rules iwd file.

z_svr_rules_deathmatch.iwd

making sure you place the pam1.gsc file in the pam/rules/dm folder within the new .iwd file you created. Upload to your server and you should be able to switch to pam1 mode by typing /rcon pam_mode pam1

I think the server would need to be setup as DM before typing the command so it looking in the correct folder.

I have not setup for dm... but I think this will work. :)
