That cool txt at the start of a server...

[Geddiz™]

I would like to know how do u get that cool text at the start of the server, I would make a really good host if only I knew.

yes - you need the MOTD mod - i got it on my server but where from i have no idea!

[Geddiz™]

Got the MOTD mod and I installed it but how do you actually get the txt?

[KingJ]

there is a setting in one of your ini files that reads MOTDLine1="YOUR TEXT GOES HERE" if it isnt in one of your ini files add MOTDLine1 - 4 to your deusex.ini ( preferably under a heading related to motd )

I dont know if that info is correct - it has been a long time since i have edited it. I cannot accept responsability for any damage etc. this may caulse!!!!

Don't worry about it. The mod made my game always run in windowed mode...which suks so I got rid of it. Thanks anyway

Ok, I got it to work, but I can't edit the text, it just says, "Wealcome to [TA]Geddiz's server "every one's invited" " Theis is my server name btw. Hoe do you edit the text?

[KingJ]

Here is a section from my deusex.ini file

Code: Select all


[Engine.GameReplicationInfo]
ServerName=|ALPHA|KINGJ's SERVER - FUNLINE
ShortName=
AdminName=Kingsley Jarrett / [A]KingJ
AdminEmail=kj@simcitydepartmentstore.co.uk
MOTDLine1=This server is here primarily so people can have fun
MOTDLine2=Rules : No Swearing, No Spamming, No TKing
MOTDLine3=Rember to obey per map rules!
MOTDLine4=Have fun!

Fill in the servername, adminname and adminemail. Then add the lines

MOTDLine1=
MOTDLine2=
MOTDLine3=
MOTDLine4=

and add some text!

Enjoy
