Can't get into remote admin or add bots
« on: February 17, 2006, 08:23:23 PM »
When ever I try to use the remote admin or add bots it won't let me.  It keeps tellin me that I need to have lv. 50 something.  What is that level 50 thing and how do I get it so I can get it to work?

Use "sv addbot" instead.

That works, but it still won't let me use the remote admin.  How the heck do I get THAT to work

hit the ~ key them type login (admin password) u have to have the admin password.  Normally servers are hosted for clans.  So look for server name then look for ppl with that tag :)

If the login *adminpass* method does not work, check the server.cfg file in /pball/configs/server.cfg and make sure you have everything set the way you want it.  Then after starting a new game press ~ and type "exec server.cfg" (without the quotes).  Then do the login *adminpass* thing.

Alternatively you can bring up the console and type
set oppass1 "<password>"
set oppass1level #

Youll probably want to set oppass1level to 150 if you use this method, this will allow you to manipulate your server as you wish.
This appears at the bottom of the server.cfg file if you wish to take that route (suggested).

The only downside is that youll have to do this every time you open DP.

Just to clarify, if you choose to edit the server.cfg file then you will have to type "exec server.cfg"  in the console everytime you open DP.

Or you can create a shortcut to the paintball2 executable and add "+set dedicated 1 +set public 0 +exec server.cfg +map aldi" to the "Target:" box (in the properties of the shortcut) like I did ^_^

+map aldi

Haha, is that some shameless self-promotion there? I personally prefer "+set dedicated 1 +set public 0 +exec server.cfg +map grave"

No, that is the current favorite seige map in LAN games here at college.

If you use "seta" instead of "set", it archives the setting (saves them to your config), so you won't have to do it every time.

Yes I do.  A couple of tweaks I can think of but overall a great map.
