Hosting Multiple Servers,

[{HK}]

Hi,

I'm trying to host multiple servers. I have two IPS, but I'm able to host two different servers on the same ip right now. How can I host another on the separate IP that I have on the same machine?

Probably through your router and ports settings, but I couldn't say since I know little about hosting.

I am assuming you have more than once PC due to the two ISPs.?

hi gab,

I got it working. I'm just using the same ip with different ports. I wish I coudl get deus ex bound to the second ip but that looks scary,

also, do you want to join HK?

well I know servers in datacenters use the command -multihome whateveripaddress, to make the server use a certain IP, might work for you.

Thanks I tried multihome but it's not working.

I have my servers using different ports though so all is well in Hk land.

Not sure if you can host on two IP's from one machine, but you -can- host from multiple ports on the same machine.

Make as many copies of your DeusEx.ini and User.ini as you need servers for. (For the sake of an example, I'll have "modServ" and "0augServ" as the ini file names.)

Rename your copied DeusEx.ini and User.ini "modServ.ini" and "modServUser.ini". Repeat for 0augServ.

Then, for each server's INI's, find "Port=7790" and change it to Port=*whatever*. Just make sure none of the servers share the same port. Not sure what happens should they do so, but it can't be anything good.

Fiddle with these ini's as you see fit, to make your ideal server settings based on what kind of game you want to run.

Finally, create a batch file, and name it "modServLaunch.bat". Write the following into it:

Code: Select all

@ECHO OFF
:loop
C:\DeusEx\System\DeusEx.exe DXMP_Smuggler?game=*your gametype class goes here* -server ini=modServ.ini USERINI=modServUser.ini log=modServ.log
GoTo loop


Repeat for "0augServ", replacing "modServ" with "0augServ" again. Now, provided you did the setup right, every time you run those batch files, you have a server that runs on its own port, and will not stay down until you close the batch file. Sorted!

(Don't forget to forward the other server's ports too if you use a router!)

thanks, everything works fine.

You might want to fix the speed of gameplay in your adv dm server, and probably add a map rotation that exists beyond area51; as well as enable gas grenades and dts.

Edit: Just checked it, map rotation seems to be fixed. Might want to enable all weaps though if any other ammo might be missing.
