Hello All,

Its been a awhile since ive been here, but im back. And i need to pick your brains to solve this one.

I am trying to run a dedicated server with just a few changes to the Server config file, when I start it with the vanilla Config file it starts and runs properly, yet when i change the settings for the name, and making the zombies jog instead of run, it wont work.

I moved the dedicated server folder from the Steam folder and placed it on the Desktop, but i do not think that should do anything.

Thanks

I would move the folder back where it originally was for starters. I've had issues before where it I did this and it wasn't correctly pointing to the serveradmin.xml. Make sure port forwarding is correctly setup for port 26900 and make sure you change your passwords later. You also have no telnet password setup either. When in doubt always check the log file. I run mine on linux so not exactly sure where it's located in Windows.

 
You have to give the server a seed name: Change from

<property name="WorldGenSeed" value=""/>

... to something like:

<property name="WorldGenSeed" value="RZRWorld"/>

 
I also have a question, im trying to create a RWG and it never makes it past generating socket data. below are my setting and i could really use some help thanks. I've let it sit and load for over 14 hours and nothing. I removed all the extra explination stuff to make the settings easier to read. Ive also tried loading these settings on two different computer and got the same resault.

That's going to take you a really long time if you don't use Nitrogen.

 


With a high-end dedicated server using 24 CPU cores and 68GB RAM it will take about 9 hours.
