Server Help

Light Hazard · Posted: Tue Jun 29, 2004 3:10 pm Post subject: Download doesn't work?

Here's the thing... I uploaded a new .lvz into the zone. Now it's under 4MB because I know that's the max, so I put it to 2 MB. After I uploaded and tried to re-enter zone it goes to the download screen and doesn't load up. THe main reason the .lvz is 2 MB is because my victoryl.wa2 wasn't working, so i stuck in the mp3 i got it from in hopes that it would fix. However, it didnt. Then I tried putting the server.set back into the game without the gfx.lvz loaded, however, that didn't work either. THe main problem is I can't download the damned thing to see anything. I waited a long time to download and it never left 0%.

Maybe the server cannot find what is listed in Misc:LevelFiles. You probably mispelt something somewhere.

Nope I even went as far as to upload the server.set without the Level Files, still didn't work.

By the way, literally uploading server.set has no effect on the server. SET files are generated to view the esc+c editor, and have barely any other use. You can convert them into CFGs (which are more useful) with FACTS, however.

No other use? '?setsettings server.set' pehaps?

Didn't know about that one... I take it back. How many ways of changing settings does SS have anyway?!

I posted this, though, because I happed to be his host and noticed a server.set sitting in the server directory.

?getsettings and ?setsettings are good if you are trying to be sneaky and don't want it in the server log

okay, how would i tell people to download the lvz and put it in the folder but not make them download anyway? it doesnt seem to work for me.

CypherJF · Posted: Fri Jul 02, 2004 9:31 pm Post subject:

If you put the LVZ in your /continuum/zones/<zone name>/ folder; continuum will use it if it's being called to in server.cfg [misc] levelfiles=

What cypher says only works if both the lvz in the server folder and ctm zone folder are exactly the same.

CypherJF · Posted: Sat Jul 03, 2004 7:13 pm Post subject:

Indeed. Otherwise, it'll download from the server.
