FA 3.0 Server Fix!



<!-- / icon and title -->

<!-- message -->

Server operators need to do the following:


- Upload a file named steam_appid.txt with the number 70 (this is for firearms, if you are following this fix for another game, then please look to the thread at the bottom of this update on the steam forums for game authentication numbers.) in it, nothing
else to your server directory. You must also insure that your version
of the steam hlds client is correct, it should tell you what version
you are using by typing this command into hlsw "status".


01:50:51 status

01:50:51 hostname: [RA] Ruthless-gaming.com FA 3.0

version : 48/1.1.2.1 4381 secure (40) <---- This is the version that your server should be at!

tcp/ip : 69.12.96.89:27016

map :tc _iwojima at: 0 x, 0 y, 0 z

players : 0 active (24 max)


# name userid uniqueid frag time ping loss adr

0 users


PLAYERS!


You MUST type "cl_solid_players 0" prior to joining the server, it will
crash your client if you don't. I am currently working on an adminmod
plugin that executes this command for you. I suggest for the time being
to add this command to an autoexec.cfg file.


If you have any questions at all, feel free to message me on steam friends, happy fragging!



Below is a steam article that has more information about the work around for hlds based servers.

Yes actually, while FA2 is in production, we are running a FAL Team Wars league, basically it is a draft style league. If you're interested feel free to visit the FA2 forums here Firearms2mod.com and visit the link in the first post to sign up.

Cheers
