thanks for the info,

mohstats works with CoD. http://stats.clanfx.com

Fatmonkey, if you run my UDPB-COD admin bot, you will get web stats for players.

Check out this post for the details...

Hi,

I am currentlly working on a Stats software for COD and MOHAA.
The only option i have left to finish is the auto generation of the stats at a programable time interval.
The software requires MySQL to run and generates either HTML pages or a PHP script as an output. Of course if using the PHP script you do not have to generate it everytime.

I'll keep you informed.

What about www.megagamestats.com for COD logging? Auto logging, built-in ftp, admin login, multiple game support... One site using is www.clan-sks.net.

I have both MegaGameStats (http://www.megagamestats.com) and mohastats (http://stats.clanfx.com/) running on our site (http://www.clan-sks.net) for CoD. See {sKs} CoD MegaGameStats (http://clan-sks.net/modules.php?name=CoD_Stats) and {sKs}CoD mohstats (http://clan-sks.net/modules.php?name=CoD_Stats_2) for examples using the same server log files. I have been beta testing MegaGameStats and had numerous telephone and email discussions with the developers.

Both are very good programs and both have their advantages and disadvantages.

Pros:
Megagamestats is very easy to set up and administer. It runs on a windows system and can monitor your linux or windows game servers. It works for MOHAA, MOHAAS, MOHAAB and CoD (support for other games is planned). It updates automatically (LIVE) with no admin intervention. If your gameserver crashes or is restarted, you do not have to worry about saving the log files as MegaGameStats has already recorded the information.MegaGameStats has an admin panel integrated into it. It is free (with ads, licensed version for $20 is ad free) The developers have been very receptive and supportive of suggestions for features and improvements.

mohstats is very customizable if you know php scripting. There are a multitude of stats and 'awards' that can be configured and used. It can monitor both linux and windows servers on both linux and windows websites. mohstats is free. It has an active forum for help from the developer and other users. It works for MOHAA, MOHAAS, MOHAAB and CoD.

Cons:
MegaGameStats must be run on a windows system (but a linux version is in the works). Presently it only tracks deaths, kills, suicides and rounds played. No user forum presently (but I have set up an area in our forum devoted for questions and answers). Many windows hosts will not allow any applications to be run on a shared webhosting server. You may need to find a host who is able to run this for you or a game server provider who uses this.

mohstats is very difficult to configure initially (especially if you do not know php) and to administer. It must be manually updated daily by the admin. The log files must be rotated and saved in case of a server restart or crash. If you do not have your site or game server on your own dedicated system, you may need to download the log files, run the parser and then upload the pages to your website as your webhost may not allow these scripts to be run on a shared webhosting server as they are resource intensive when they are run.

In a nutshell, both applications are very good. But I prefer the ease of use offered by MegaGameStats over mohstats. Once you set it up, it takes ZERO admin time. Working 40-50 hrs a week at my regular job plus running a successful web hosting business, administering 4 of my personal clan game servers, hosting multiple rented gameservers, and being a single parent to a teenager fill a majority of my time. If anyone has any questions on either MegaGameStats or mohstats, I will be happy to try to answer them if you contact me on the {sKs} forum or by email.

I found a new stats program thats in development, it sounds pretty damn sweet and easy to addon to (new post on their forums). Im not much of a programmer so i dont understand alot of it.

Supports 12 games :o http://www.nstats.net

I use mohstats and have it so that there is ZERO administering by me (the server admin and webmaster). I agree it can be a bit tricky to setup initially but I'm no genius and if I can do it... anyone can.

I have 3 cron jobs run by my webserver to grab log files from my gameserver, delete the old log file, parse the logs on my webserver, create the stats and archive the old logs. It took me two attempts to get it working correctly but now I have absolutely no intervention to get the stats generated - its all done by my webserver automatically.

I take no credit for any of the "heavy lifting" coding... I just followed some of the wisdom posted on the mohstats forums.

My stats are at www.canadianblackwatch.com/mohstats/output.

Megastats look pretty slick but I enjoy the depth of data mohstats gives you.

I installed MegaStats with only minor difficulties.
Looks like their licensing fee went up since the review above.
It is now $45.

I am having trouble configuring it to acknowledge multiple logs though. I have three server directory/installs, each with a separate game_mp.cfg: One for pure and one for PRM and one for TTC.

Here's a snippit from my MegaStats ini file:


[Global]
; number of sites (game log files)
SiteCount=3

; example site config
[Site]
Name=Pure
LogFilePath=c:\Program Files\CallOfDuty\main\games_mp.log
GameConfig=COD.cfg
[Site1]
Name=Realism
LogFilePath=c:\Program Files\CallOfDuty_PRM\main\games_mp.log
GameConfig=COD.cfg
[Site2]
Name=Territory
LogFilePath=c:\Program Files\CallOfDuty_TTC\main\games_mp.log
GameConfig=COD.cfg


The drop down select list on the MegaStats screens only shows the first log file option "Pure".

Does anyone know the proper syntax for adding multiple logs to the "Select Site" option list?

Thanks

In demo mode, megastats will only work with 1 game server. You need to purchase a license for each game server. Also you do not need to do seperate directory install for each server, multiple servers are supported in the .cfg file. $45 WAS the price, and it is to be lowered soon if it has not been yet.
