Page 1 of [MAD] COD-MW1 Dedicated server (pc)

Ok,  i`ve put a support ticket in with my server provider to swap one of my unreal 2004 servers to a 10 slot public MW1 server,  are there any mods etc that anyone would want installed ?  dunno anything about the mod scene for mw1,  but if it`s available, i should be able to sort it out.

there will also be a 20 slot voice server included if anyone wants to use voice coms, we can also toggle the server between public & private for clan get-togethers if required, & also alter map/gametypes + kick/ban players if needed.   i`ll pm the server admin codes to all mad members once it`s sorted,

Not sure about mods.... There are good mods available but they change the entire gameplay ( ie freezetag which is excellent ) for now i rekon leaving mods but HARDCORE gametype is a must, also there are some fantastic maps out there if you can sort a re-direct for downloading them.

i`ve seen an ftp re direct url on the config file, if i can get a free fast ftp host we should be able to do that...

later on when i get time i`ll create an admin pass for you..  then you can have a mooch

ill do my best lol............. managed it with the utwk4 server but it want easy lol... post the ip of the server aswell mate when its up

ip is in the banner posted above :)

the server`s up & seems to be running fine, apart from the fact punkbuster keeps kicking me :/  dunno if it`s me, or the server at fault,  i downoaded punkbuster (for users) & updated the servers punkbuster, but it still keeps telling me my punkbuster is out of date :/ & boots me off...

@ Mercy,

didn`t we used to have a webadmin client for MW1 ? i`m sure i remember using one, iirc you just had to give it your passwords then it`d log onto the server & let you controll it in a similar way to "normal" webadmin ?

anyway, if not, here are some of the commonly needed game panel comands..



Console commands
The Call of Duty 4 console commands are very similair to the previous CoD editions.

You can use the commands by pressing `~` while you are in-game. A small bar will appear on the top of your screen. Now you can enter one of the following commands.
If the console does not display when you press `~`, you need to enable it. Do this by going to the game`s main menu -> Options -> Game Options... -> Enable Console should say `Yes`.

PS: For a larger console window (needed for /status for example) you need to press `Shift + ~`. In this window the command output will appear, you can scroll up and down with the scroll button on your mouse.

Commands
/serverinfo - This command shows the server settings and configurations.

/map [map name] - This will load the given map. Map names can be found in the map overview article here.

/map_rotate - This will load the next map of the rotation. This is set in the `sv_maprotation` file on your server.

/map_restart - This will restart the current map.

/fast_restart - This will restart the current map just like /map_restart but is much faster as it will not load the map again. It will just restart the map.

/status - This shows information about the connected players. This includes the client ID, score, ping, GUID, name and IP address. The ID and name can be used for the following commands.

/tell [player id] - This will display a message to a specific player. The ID is given with the /status command.

/clientkick [player id] - This will kick a player according to its ID (given with the /status command).

/kick [player name] - This will do the same as the /clientkick command, but this command requires the player`s name. However, some names are very difficult to enter (with colour codes etc.), thats why the /clientkick commands is easier in use. You can use `all` as player name, this will kick all players from the server.

/onlykick [player name] - Does the same as /kick as far as I know.

/banClient [player id] - This command will ban a player according to its ID. The player`s GUID will be added to ban.txt.

/banUser [player name] - This command does the same as the /banclient command. However, this requires you to fill in the player`s name, it is therefore advised to use the /banclient command (names can be long or contain colour codes).

/tempBanClient [player id] - This will temporary ban a player using the player`s ID. The length of a temporary ban can be changed in the server configuration file.

/tempBanUser [player name] - This will temporary ban a player using the player`s name.

/unbanUser [player name] - This will unban a user according to the player`s name. If the player`s name appears more than once in ban.txt, you can edit the file and remove the banned player manually.

/dumpuser [player name] - This will give information about the player.

/killserver - As the name says, it will shut your server down.

RCON usage
It is very likely that you are not playing at the same location (IP address) as your server is. Thats where we use RCON (= remote control) commands for. Using RCON is very easy, just add `/rcon ` in front of the commands above (removing the `/` of those commands). But before you can use RCON, you will have to login:

/rcon login [password] - Fill in the password of the server and you can use RCON commands.

Examples of RCON commands:

/rcon map mp_pipeline
/rcon status
/rcon banclient 5

More (useless) commands
/serverstatus - This will give you information about the server settings and a quick list of online players.

/serverinfo - This will give you some diversified about IW settings on your server and some useless information.

/systeminfo - This will give you a list of the settings your server has.

/clientinfo - This will give you information about the yourself as client.

/showip - This will provide your IP address.

/cmdlist - This will show a complete list of commands available.

Hope that list Helps.

I used to use Rcon for cod 4.... nice and simple.

the issue with punkbuster has been fixed, tho you may need to alter it in your favourites list as the port has been changed to 28960
