Question about the config_mp_server.cfg file

[imported_Eroc]

I am running 3 COD (Game) Servers on my server and it runs great....but I wasn't sure about something I thought you guys might know about.

I have modified the log to show games_mp#.log (# = 1, 2, & 3)

I have the following files in my .callofduty folder:

games_mp1.log
games_mp2.log
games_mp3.log
config_mp_server.cfg <---- do I need to worry about this not being unique though? I have the games_mp file seperated by server but the config_mp_server isn't. If so what do I need to do to seperated this?

Thanks guys/gals !

The CODAdmin servers are also running on same box, what we did was put them into seperate directories, that way they will have their own unique files.

So did I, but its looking in the /{HOME}/.callofduty/main/ folder for that file for all three servers.

One point that you left out is that you're talking about the Linux server here...not Windows. Windows uses the config_mp.cfg to store what the Linux server puts into server_config_mp.cfg.

That config file goes into the location specified by fs_homepath which defaults to $HOME/.callofduty/main. You can specify different values on the command line for each of your servers to keep them seperate. You'll probably want to have a seperate server_config_mp.cfg for each server. Whenever you set a cvar with seta, it sets the A bit for that cvar and when the server shuts down, it rewrites the server_config_mp.cfg file with the cvars with that bit set. If all your servers are executing the same server_config_mp.cfg file then all seta cvars are global to all your servers.

if in the startup line I were to add this:

+seta fs_homepath $HOME/.callofduty#/main (# being the server number)

would that solve my problem?

Thanks,

This didn't work... anyone know what I am doing wrong?

Don't use +seta on the command line, just +set. Also, sorry for getting wrong on my post above, fs_homepath doesn't include main. If you put main on there then the server won't create the directory for you.

You just want:

+set fs_homepath $HOME/.callofduty#

That worked great, thanks Maximus !!
