MOHAA Server setup

[Typhoon1000]

Hi People!

I want to set up a dedicated MOHAA and a MOHAA:SH Server on a Linux machine. I used the guide here at GameAdmins.com wich is very helpful.
But i need to know exactly wich files are needed, i read that the sound and video folders are not needed at all.
Can anyone be so nice and list all files wich are needed to run a MOHAA and a SH Server for i havent found a complete list anywhere in the net.

Thanks alot.

I'd also like to see this question answered :)

I read the MoHAA Server Setup guide at this site and found it to be very useful. But when it states "All files located in the main directory under mohaa" are needed, does it also apply to the files under the subdirectories (configs, sound and video) for the Linux configuration?

I've uploaded all the .pk3 files and the server is running (almost) fine. Sound and video files are not needed after all. It makes sense, since MoHAA uses a modified version of the Quake 3 engine.

But one strange think keeps happening to the .pk3 uploaded files: they arrive corrupted :( And when I run the MoHAA/SH servers I get

SkeletorCacheFileCallback: Could not open binary file 'newanim/models/player/allied_oss.skc' or 'models/player/allied_oss.skc'

and similar errors... Any idea about what might be corrupting the files during the upload (I use SmartFTP).

Thanks!

Make sure the pk3 files are not in use during the transfer. If you are playing MOHAA while uploading the pk3 files, they are sure to get corrupted. If you upload custom maps to the server while it's running, do not store in the main folder, instead store them in your root/home folder, and then stop the server, and transfer them to the main folder.

Hi!

BENSTER, thanks for replying!

MoHAA was not running during the upload. These are the errors I get when I start the Spearhead server:

------ Server Initialization ------

------ Server Initialization Complete ------ 0.01 seconds

And I can't find these files in any of the .pk3 files! Could these missing files have a negative impact on the server?

Thanks!

Doh! I was running server version 2.50 and client version 2.00... So I didn't upload pak3, pak4 and pak5 files to the server, because they were missing from my game folder.

I'll give it another try later tonight. Hopefully, the errors will go away :)

Thanks!

[BENSTER]

When you set up a server, usually you jsut upload pak0 then run the point release and it extracts the remainder of hte pak files, but I am glad you figured that one out. :)

Hi Folks,

I poked around the GameAdmin site but could not find the Server Manual you're talking about ...

Anyone know where precisely it is ?

I've just got the Linux release to work on Debian 3, but I haven;t figured out to manipluate it like I can under the Windows Platform....

Thanks,
Snuff

I have no idea How to start the server can some on explain that to me what is the command to run the server ???

[rustang]

From the link I provided above this is the command line to run the server on a windows and linux box:


The command line (Windows):

mohaa_server.exe +set net_IP 192.168.0.1 +set net_port 12203 +set com_zoneMegs 30 +set vm_game 0 +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

The command line (Linux):

./mohaa_lnxded +set net_IP 192.168.0.1 +set net_port 12203 +set fs_basepath ./ +set com_zoneMegs 30 +set vm_game 0 +set ttycon 0 +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

Als i got when i jump that he crouch en weard thing is there special mod installed you hear when battle is won some talking , isnt
I cant join clanbase with all those special mods on the server

[BENSTER]

are you trying to run the server on the same computer you are playing from?

I'm not quite sure what you wrote:

Is this a dedicated server?
Did you also install a MOD on this server?
Did you attempt to run just a stock server before installing the mod?
Did you attempt to move PK3 files while the server was running? (this corrupts them)

[BENSTER]

Are there DM flags to set in the config? I haven't messed with MOHAA in ages.
