| Crash Fix? | |

Augusta_Mintaka - Student  |
So, I was hosting a server for a little while and some pesky player was using a crash that repeated AAAAAAAAAAAA...etc in the server log. I was aware of this type of crash for a while, but never had to deal with it. So I was wondering if there was some sort of fix for it. I host sometimes in 1.00 and 1.01, so some fix for both would be appreciated. _______________ "Deos fortioribus adesse." |

Oh, well, hm...
If that is so, you could try adding '+exec duel.cfg' to the 'call jamp.exe +set dedicated 2' line, that is: Quote: call jamp.exe +set dedicated 2 +exec duel.cfg
Then create a duel.cfg in the base folder with, oh let's say: Quote: seta disable_item_medpak_instant "1"
seta disable_item_medpac "1" seta disable_item_shield_sm_instant "1" seta disable_item_shield_lrg_instant "1" seta g_weapondisable "524279" seta g_forcepowerdisable "163837" seta g_forceBasedTeams "0" seta d_saberkicktweak "1" seta g_debugMelee "0" seta g_dismember "0" seta g_forceRegenTime "200" seta g_gravity "800" seta g_locationBasedDamage "1" seta g_maxForceRank "7" seta g_privateDuel "0" seta g_saberLock "0" seta g_saberDamageScale "1" seta g_speed "250" seta sv_allowdownload "0" seta sv_cheats "0" seta sv_pure "1" seta timelimit "5" seta fraglimit "1" seta duel_fraglimit "10" seta g_gametype "3" map mp/duel1 That's basically the standard settings for the duel gametype. You obviously can change any of these if you want to. See if that'll work! _______________ Find out more about the Jedi Academy Aurochs here and more about Masta here! Married to Kain. |

Oh no, I didn't test the script out on other servers. I just asked around and people told me which servers were patched for it. Upon asking about how they patched their server I was met with no answers do to some sort of silly secrecy regarding server configuration. Anyways, thanks for the script.
A small problem with the script; when I use it, the server won't show unless I start a map (eg mp/ffa3). Maybe I missed something. _______________ "Deos fortioribus adesse." This comment was edited by Augusta_Mintaka on Aug 17 2008 06:33pm. |

Quote: I saw some 1.00 servers that remained base but were immune to the crash though. You tried your msgboom script on random servers to see if they're immune to it? Nasty! :p
Anyways, i guess it really depends on what you consider to be a mod. If we want to be very nazi about the definition, (and we should be, considering this is JKA) then every kind of modification to the server files is, well, a mod(ification), which probably is going to affect the gameplay in some way or another, or at least give people an excuse for playing badly, even if you keep the name to 'basejka' etc. Quote: I guess I'll settle for an RS script, but I tried one on jk3 files and it didn't work. Could you kindly direct me to one?
I never tried running a server before, so i'm as new as they can get, but, if you run the server on a windows OS, you might maybe want to try creating a file in the gamedata folder called serverstarter.bat and include the following: Quote: @ ECHO OFF ECHO Starting Server... ECHO. call jamp.exe +set dedicated 2 ECHO. ECHO Restarting Server... ECHO. ECHO. call serverstarter.bat Just start the server through the file and keep the window open. (Courtesy of |JAA|Eclipse) Alternatively, if you use linux to run the server, you might maybe want to talk to this one awesome guy called R2D2 on IRC, or maybe even DJ_Sith, also an awesome person. gl _______________ Find out more about the Jedi Academy Aurochs here and more about Masta here!

Only servers who are immune are those who are hosted on a mod like Masta already said. If ur planning to keep ur server baseJKA, the only thing u can pretty much do is install a auto-rs script. To rs ur server when its down. |

Tried several q3infoboom patches and none seem to do the trick. Some servers are immune to the crash so there has to be a fix out there somewhere. _______________ "Deos fortioribus adesse." |

Yeah it is. It's extremly crude and simple - somewhat of an embarrassment to the dev's, if you ask me.

Is it infoboom? I thought that was something different. People execute a script in the server that repeats 'A' a lot of times. I have a copy of it, but I doubt I'd be allowed to post it.
I'll try some infoboom patches, thanks for the advice. _______________ "Deos fortioribus adesse." This comment was edited by Augusta_Mintaka on Aug 15 2008 05:16am. |

As far as i know, the only way to prevent the infoboom exploit is to run a mod. There's a couple of mods out there that don't flood the game with useless and annoying content, so you might maybe want to try them out. _______________ Find out more about the Jedi Academy Aurochs here and more about Masta here!
