TGEA dedicated server doesnt work

by Adam Beer · in General Discussion · 04/21/2007 (8:17 am) · 7 replies

Hi,

Im trying to create a TGEA dedicated server, but it doesnt show up on the master server list. Im not behind a router or a firewall. I also tryed to create the dedicated server on a remote machine in a NY data center, and the same result. What is going on?

I tested it with other TGEA tests and it didnt work. Is there something wrong with the master server and TGEA?

There is no TGE-A master server as far as I am aware.

How would I get one? I would like to make my own.

I can't see why it wouldn't work with the current master as I thought only the art pipeline for the most part is what is different from TGE. All network code etc. should be essentially the same no? I think your issue may be related to the RegionMask global varible not being set to 2. West is the only region the master is setup for.

$Pref::Server::RegionMask = 2;

There are a few globals used for filtering and the client and server must use the same settings.

$Server::GameType
$Client::GameType // This can be left NULL
$Client::GameTypeQuery // Should match Server::GameType
$Client::MissionTypeQuery // I use "Any"

Ok, I found out but it still doesnt work. Its probably TGEA related. it doesnt work on the stock demo or the starter.fps kits either.
