[2012/07/04 19:47:27] ...ERROR: The map doesn't match the server packmask.
...Could not load the match settings
[2012/07/04 19:47:27] Server not started: no Challenges available. Check your matchsettings!

Whats the go, i've changed everything I saw over to TMCanyon, and I still can't start the server. Using the default maps that came with the server files.

Did you set MatchSettings in RunSrv.sh (or *.bat) to some of Canyon (like CanyonC.txt) and the title to TMCanyon ?

Nvm I went to the in-game community to help me. For some EPICALLY STUPID reason. I had to have this in my run.sh file:

Code: Select all

./ManiaPlanetServer /title=TMCanyon /game_settings=MatchSettings/TMCanyonB.txt /dedicated_cfg=dedicated_cfg.txt

Rather than this:

Code: Select all

./ManiaPlanetServer /game_settings=MatchSettings/TMCanyonB.txt /dedicated_cfg=dedicated_cfg.txt /title=TMCanyon

Well done Nadeo.

nice fail xD

[moo-whazzaa]

So the /forceip=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx enables me to login through my own lan due to nat loopback issues.
But are external users also able to logon to my server when using that forceip option ?

Hmmmm

Ok I'll have a look into this. But I'm pretty sure our command line parsing is order independent.
To help me reproduced the issue: was it linux or windows?


And, aaaargh, looks like I forgot one more time to include canyon and storm command lines examples.

Hmmmm

no, they won't be able.

humm...
Actually I don't think there is a way to make your use case work with LAN disabled.
I'll look into the issue, sorry about this.

My .sh file works fine in a different order...

Looks like this:

Code: Select all

./ManiaPlanetServer /game_settings=MatchSettings/Autosave.txt /dedicated_cfg=dedicated_cfg.txt /title=TMCanyon

That's in linux, by the by.

lol ok,
after testing nice blockmix with new blocks,
it went to bad blockmix.
at next I updated a dedicated and started it without fail, maybe becouse I used the title hint
nice feature is to show the screenshot of a map while its loading,
but u should fix it to show it and not the screenshot of the map thet was just played.

dedicated.pak 151 MB?

pls remove this paks out of the dedicated, my server isnt driving on my server and there for it eaven don´t need a monitor to see the nice graphics
edit: if u don´t want to remove this paks, what about fake paks?

It's obviously already the case.
this pack is already stripped down, and only contains the collision surfaces for the blocks, nothing related to visual or audio.

And it also contains both Canyon and Storm.
We chose the convenience of having a single server for all maniaplanet over the cost of having a bigger download.
And I of course know there still is lots of work on the dedicated server to be done..

3rd: I told u this allready several times, just make the new version public in the old dedicated thread,
can´t be so hard!

okay, I'll add a note in the previous thread.
But I prefering having separate threads to separate the issues.
