<div class="IPBDescription">How to run 2 servers in a box</div> Do anyone know how to run 2 different mod in 1 linux/windows box?
I mean in 1 box. I run 2 dedicated servers, 1 has metamod, 1 just original ns without any mod or plugins.
when we install metamod, we must edit the liblist.gam to add the metamod path. If the second one I love to run with pure dedicated without any special mod. how do I change the run command to exec the second liblist.gam. is there has any command to run that or we cannot do that.
Thanks for any help.

    As far as I know you have to have a seperate install of each game server.

    Is there a way to have say one directory ns, another dir ns2, and run using a "-game ns2" commandline option...wonder if that works.

    Otherwise, you'll have to have a steam server setup for each I believe. I could be wrong though!

    Boris is correct, you would need to have 2 seperate hlds directories.

    I try it. but it can't show on ns game. just show it hl game. & it will make whole server more lag than use the same dir. ... <!--emo&???--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/confused-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='confused-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    i have a co server and a ns server running at the same time from the same dir, but both have metamod on.


    Doesnt the new amxx allow you to use a shortcut style varible to load "fake metamod" instead of liblist.gam being edited?

    If HD space is an issue, then you can play with these options, but why? Just make a new server entry for each.

    With 2 servers under the same directory you'll have to watch for things that edit files such as the banned.cfg for example. You'll have to edit the admincmd.sma and have it read in the banned.cfg file before writing to it and then resaving. Otherwise, you'll be losing ban information.

    So again, unless you have a harddrive only 2 gigs large, just install a seperate instance for each.

    Can't see any SPECIAL reasons to not do this...

    with linux you can have one core directory with all the hlds files in and use symbolic links in subsequent directories to run speperate game servers. OFC you need only do tihs with the core hlds files.

    but it allows you to update only once and apply that update across all servers.
