Topic: How to run server in 3 steps

Hi everyone! It is my first time at this forum, and after me, Talon, TankCrew and RsfAngelus played on my server, I decided to write how easy is to run Firststrike server. Also Talon said to me to describe my adventure, how I made it, so before I post those 3 steps, please read this short story lol
I wanted to have at least once my own firststrike server, and I tried everything I found on this forum, but unfortunately nothing worked for me. Every time my server was red, or if I was able to join, I get modified content error. So I decided to make this server work by my way, simple way. Well I was afraid it will not work, but after joined, I laughed so much, how easy is to make Firststrike server big_smile

So, here is what I done:
1. Copy entire FirstStrike folder from your bf2142/mods folder and paste it to your server/mods;
2. Copy modmanager.py from yourserver/mods/bf2142/settings and paste it to yourserver/mods/Firststrike/settings
3. Setup server and here you go!

Only 3 steps are needed, but cc is a little bugged, and everytime will be made a change that need server restart, maps will be reseted and mod will be changed to default one. So before start server, you must setup everything(when server is stopped), that happened to me I dont know how cc will act for others, those bugs.
My server is working, we played on it so posts like "this not work" will mean that you messed something.

Oh and last thing, if you ever wanted fight using bf2142 air vehicles against FirstStrike air vehicles, you should join my server, I run it sometimes when I play FirstStrike, just ask and I make it big_smile

Re: How to run server in 3 steps

Heh, was good fun trying SW fighters vs BF2142 gunships, now you've got to get the BF2142 tanks and walkers working.

And congratulations on getting your server up and running.
