30 maps 3 campaigns getting errors


(LTF_TheMauler) #1

Hey everyone.

I am trying to run ET with 30 maps with 3 campaign files of 10 maps each. Once the first map ends people are getting disconnected with a couple differnet errors.

Error
Game code (ui_mp_x86.dll) failed pure server check

Error
Invalid game folder

Error
Couldn’t load an official pak file; verify your installation & make sure it has been updated to latest version.

Now we are running linux version with newest ET patch and Shrubmod. Everything worked fine with 20 maps and 2 campaign files of 10 maps each so I am just lost. My campaign cycle file is as follows.

[b]set d1 “campaign LTF_10mapA ; set nextcampaign vstr d2”
set d2 “campaign LTF_10mapB ; set nextcampaign vstr d3”
set d3 “campaign LTF_10mapC ; set nextcampaign vstr d1”

set d_initial “set g_gametype 4 ’ map 1944_forest ; set nextcampaign vstr d3”
vstr d_initial[/b]

Does this look ok to you guys. I would really like to get our server up to 30 maps. Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Change to objectivecycle…it will be the same thing and you won’t need to mess around with having campaign files available for download. PLus with obj cycle you can go 100 maps!!!

Make sure each campaign has about 100 mb of pk3 (total).
Anything over 100 mb will crash the server.
We had those types of problems before on |ND80| Servers when they were used alot.

Objecive cycle.
Ok, I could do this but will it save XP?

Not too sure about that. We had XP save on Unlimited Abuse Server. After the campaign ended and you wern’t there. You lost all of your XP.
Test it out and see what happens.
SiliconSlick never made an 3 Campaign file before. It was always a 7 map campaign.
Inwhich got boring after 6 months.
Still to this day they won’t changed the maps. How sad…

I thought you could only have a certain number of pk3 files in etmain?! Like 10 or somethin, I dunno where i pick these things up!

Objective cycle on shrub will save XP but with etpro the XP will reset on every map change.

lots of long campaigns with lots of players will end up corrupting configstrings and you’ll get those errors.

don’t run so many long campaigns.
