| Running Multible JK3 Servers off of the same assets files | |

Got an interesting question for you server-keen folks: I want to know if there is a smooth way to run multible jk3 servers off of the same assetsX.pk3 files. Sure I can just put multible .cfg's up there and run multible instances, but the servers overwrite the .ja/base/jampserver.cfg. How can I get each server to write their own one? |

Well the problem I see is servers trying to read/write to the same directory and files at the same time. Thats a big nono, as File read/write operations are one of the slowest operations. You can use them, and still specifiy different configs with just the +exec myserverX.cfg for each instance on the commandline. Though they will all still write to jampserver.cfg as that is the cached file where all Archived CVars are written to, nothing you can do about that really execpt have either a shell or bat file depending on the OS to delete that file when a instance is started/restarted. Though trying to write protect the jampserver.cfg is a VERY bad idea that will probably make the server not so happy and throw a hissy fit. _______________ When a Man lies he murder's some part of the world.

Have you tried making jampserver.cfg read-only? Then you could run each instance with +exec on its own cfg and they wouldn't overwrite the defaults. EDIT: no, I haven't tried this, so I don't know if it works.  _______________ Saving the world, one kilobyte at a time. This comment was edited by tarpman on Sep 12 2005 12:43am. |

I've never done it, I think huxly did for the US servers and they lagged really bad... _______________ When a Man lies he murder's some part of the world.
