Arma 2 Server Cfg Download For Mw2

Lately I've been thinking about building my own game server that I could host 24/7 and have people join a game on it whenever. But I'm not exactly sure of the hardware or software needed to do that although I know a fast internet connection is a must. So please tell me what hardware needs to be faster than others. I was thinking of hosting about 2 or 3 games at once depending on whether my internet connection can handle it however, I haven't decided on the games I'm going to host yet although I have come up with some ideas: Team Fortress 2 Counter Strike Source Left 4 Dead 2 Crysis Wars Call of Duty 4 Call of Duty Modern Warfare 2 F.E.A.R Quake 4 Gears of War Also my internet upload speed to anywhere in the U.S is about 2.5 to 2.75 MB/s and my download speed is around 20 Mb/s (I have Comcast). So tell me how many players I could have in each game as well.

I'ld primarily run it on spare gear i just have laying around then use trial and error to see how many slots and games i could support. The main thing i'ld look at isv network infrastructure rather than server processing specs. Make sure if you're using old hardware that you add atleast a 100base NIC and any switches and routers are also 100base. Your connection is great, i think Jiggly is running on 1.5mb up so you should be fine. Upstream is terrible here so running game servers is near impossible, only recently did i get upstream upgraded to 0.5mb on a 10mb downstream also the throttling is terrible on Virgin. I am fairly sure a 20 man CSS server (100 tick, cl_cmdrate 100, cl_updaterate 100 enforced) will max your connection.

Since it's unlikely20 people will be playing you can probably squeeze in L4d2, that doesn't use a lot of bandwidth. Oh and all Unreal Games are very good at conserving bandwidth, so look into those games. You don't need powerful hardware. A Pentium 4, with 2 gigs of ram should do. Though do run it in Linux, all valve games have Linux binaries. I know Quake 4 does too, I duno about COD, (mw2 has no dedicated servers period). (I don't recommend Ubuntu it's rather heavy, try Debian) Basically the most important thing is bandwidth.

I cut back my hosting to just Killing Floor which uses 30 KB/s max. Such great netcoding. I have a 2.2 mb/s upload connection. I am fairly sure a 20 man CSS server (100 tick, cl_cmdrate 100, cl_updaterate 100 enforced) will max your connection.

JigglyWiggly_ are you sure about the hardware Jiggly? I mean doesn't the server have to actually run the game? I might as well ask a few game server-related questions in here: -Would it be a good idea to run a dedicated game server process AND the game client on the same system? I've got four cores and 8 GB of RAM, so I would think that this approach would better leverage the system than just running a listen server. -If not, I have basically ONE box that I could use for server duty, and it's just a dual Celeron 533/768 MB PC-133 box. I somehow doubt that the dedicated server process for older games like UT 1999 would use both CPUs, and anything that could would choke even with both because they're so slow. At least I probably won't have to fret too much about bandwidth as I thought.

[QUOTE='JigglyWiggly_']Never run the game client and server on the same machine, bad things happen(performance) That secnd pc you mentioned is just balls, that's too slow to even run Windows lol. Too slow to run Windows? You're exaggerating a bit now, though I wouldn't dare to put anything past 2000 on it. (I've actually asked you about what the heck I should DO with that machine, other than turning it into a pfSense router at great expense because it's supposedly better than DD-WRT and its ilk. I don't like seeing working hardware go to waste.). [QUOTE='JigglyWiggly_']Never run the game client and server on the same machine, bad things happen(performance) That secnd pc you mentioned is just balls, that's too slow to even run Windows lol. UltimateGamer95 Yeah I was actually asking what kind of hardware I needed for a dedicated game server.

Now are you saying that I need two servers one for the client and one for the dedicated server? I don't get it, a server by definition isn't a client. Why would you need a client for a server?

PS that post was intended for nameless. [QUOTE='NamelessPlayer'][QUOTE='JigglyWiggly_']Never run the game client and server on the same machine, bad things happen(performance) That secnd pc you mentioned is just balls, that's too slow to even run Windows lol. Too slow to run Windows?

I don't like seeing working hardware go to waste.) I was referring to XP. And I am confused, what is wrong with pfsense? I have been using it for like 2 years now. Let me rephrase: Server runs it in a command line terminal, configure through random files: valve games through the server.cfg, as well as through admin mods like sourcemod(I use this). Some gameservers have a webgui, killingfloor does, it's very good. Then you on your desktop can connect to the server and you will be admin, because you specified it in your server config.

Depending on the game it can be through something like a rcon pass. Oh and to Ivan, EA is an ass and are complete hypocrites. They didn't release their dedicated server binaries so only they can host. How this is any better than MW2's server matchmaking, I am not sure.

Who wants to pay for a server?

JigglyWiggly_ so another question do I need to install the game such as TF2 on the server and the computer that I'm connecting into the server with so that I can do admin stuff? Oh and by the way Jiggly I think your CSS 20 man estimate is a bit off since I'm sure that I could actually host 2 or 3 CSS servers on my connection unless you want to prove to me otherwise:P. Also, can you tell me how many players I might be able to have on a single Unreal Tournament 3/2004 server? Also, would it be possible to install a few games on the server and host different games on different days?

No, you don't need to install them through steam, use the CMI based SRCDS, available on Linux and Windows. Srcds.com/ 2. My estimate isn't off a cl_cmdrate 100 and cl_updaterate 100 and a high fps_max 3000 will use up a lot of your server's power. This is an EXTREMELY high quality server, most are not this good, but I only host good stuff, and I recommend you do the same. Unreal 3/2004? Uh a lot, a good amount anyway I don't have any real numbers.

I never hosted anything other than ut2004 and Killing Floor. Depends on your OS. If you are on Windows, use scheduled tasks. If on Linux use cron. (Though you must forsee problems, what if people are currently playing on the server and you want to do this? I don't know a way without programming to make it so that if it's empty and on the certain day to terminate the server.

Only do that if you're really serious.) If you are the way I'd do it would be I don't know uh: download game-monitor page of your server parse the page (string-tokenizer? Java) look for a pattern to see if its empty if empty terminate the service.

I don't like seeing working hardware go to waste.) I was referring to XP. And I am confused, what is wrong with pfsense? I have been using it for like 2 years now. There's nothing wrong with pfSense per se, but the benefits had better be great if I'm going to shell out US$70 for a couple of Intel PCI Gigabit Ethernet NICs and another $80 for an Ethernet switch, plus even more on an 802.11n wireless NIC that works with pfSense. (And this isn't even considering how that PC also needs a case and PSU of its own, so even more money spent there.).

If you are questioning the benefits of pfsense I don't know if it's for you: VPN, ipsec, extremely configurable NAT Awesome traffic shaper Ability to create psuedo vlans by just adding another nic card and creating firewall rules to prevent communication between the subnets BandwidthD (monitor bandwidth) SQIUD!!! Ability to handle an intense amount of load where a consumer router will squeel.

Oh and to Ultimate, I don't know what to tell you, just go try it and see what happens, it only takes like an hour to set them up. It depends on the tick rate and the rates you enforce on clients, default rates suck, I never play in those servers. Though do actually host a good game would ya? Good games include: UT3, Counter Strike Source, Killing Floor. Killing Floor if you like survival, Left 4 Dead if you like Point A to Point B. You can't compare them, both are fun in their own ways. Also back on topic, I rent a dedicated server from NFOServers.com and these are the specs: 4 Core i7 @ 3.0ghz 4GB Ram 100mbps upload The best way to find out how many servers your net/box can handle is to run 1 and get it full.

Then use task manager to monitor the cpu usage and the ram usage. Then you can also monitor how much of the connection you are using. I run a 20 slot ArmA 2 server, 24 slot RNL server, 24 slot DODS server and two killing floor servers. Hate to burst your bubble, but 2.5mbps upload will not get you more than 1 24 slot tf2 server (if you want decent rates or for it to run well).

Ability to handle an intense amount of load where a consumer router will squeel.

The questions I'm really asking: 'Can I do this with just dual Celeron 533s and 768 MB of SDRAM?' 'Will the network performance and security benefits be worth spending $160 or so when I'd be lucky to get $30 in a month and I've already got a cheap consumer router that works?' I know enough about networking to add some semblance of security to Wi-Fi routers, get things connected to the Internet, forward ports for certain apps, make sure that all computers connected to it can communicate with each other in a LAN for file sharing and multiplayer gaming purposes, and use Remote Desktop both on LAN and through the Internet, but little more than that.Ah, what the heck. I might as well sell off the old hardware to someone who can actually find a use for it, especially if it ends up being more practical to get something with a much faster CPU and PCIe slots for better NICs just to dedicate to pfSense.

Or maybe it's not for an end user like me, and I'm just learning about it for the sake of learning about it, or for the sake of knowing anything and everything to do with computers and the infrastructure that connects them because I'm supposed to.

Simardbrad yeah I see what you're saying but hardware wise I think that a Core i7 is overkill and sadly I only have comcast in my area and not FIOS and comcast's fastest upload is only 10Mbps but that's like $189 a month but that's WAY too expensive for me but they have 5Mbps upload on one of their business plans and that's like $99 a month so bandwidth availability in general is an issue for me. But I'm gonna see what I can do with the upload I have and I might be able to host a couple of less demanding game servers such as Unreal tournament or Quake 4 instead.

I do have some spare parts around but I'd need an extra power supply and hard drive which I don't have at the moment. I'm thinking about getting some older WD raptors and putting them in RAID 0 though;).
