NS2 Server under Debian/Wine: Server Commands

ScyllaScylla Join Date: 2003-08-05 Member: 18942Members
<div class="IPBDescription">Does is work with the current build?</div>The guide to run a NS2 server under Linux/Wine said that admin command can not be executed and mods are not working:

Is that still so in the current build?

- ServerAdmins.json works perfectly, the server reads from the file. But admin commands cannot be executed at all from the game console or server console, so ServerAdmins.json is almost pointless.
- Server Addons. Admin mods, NS2Stats, and other game modifications will not work at all.<!--QuoteEnd--></div><!--QuoteEEnd-->

    Have gotten nsstats to work, partially but took off the mods after they where removed from whitelist.
    Also, wine appears to crash after a while with the following message:
    wine: Unhandled page fault on read access to 0x00000570 at address 0x426022 (thread 0009), starting debugger...

    No issues when it's running though, this will sort of work until native Linux version arrives.

    Thanks for the infos; more important to me is:

    Are the admin commands working in the server and client console?
