and is it poss 2 bind or toggle the password option.....
I've only just got my adsl so thats why i dont know how 2 sort a map rotation and the password thing .....

Try the first for setting up the server and the second for map rotations.

i was hoping that efrunner would b a bit easyer ............
it is in a way .........but the map rotation still wont work ......

i'm doing a disi server so after i join the game i restart if from the consol and its ok ....but it keeps on the same map .......

i noticed that after trying 2 save efrunner settings i got 2 new cfg files .......EFmaps and EFRunner there are both in my base folder
it that where they should be ?????
do I have 2 bind a key 2 one of them new files???????

Hi

I would suggest leaving efrunner alone and building your own scripts for your server. I say this from experience because I tried using efrunner for my server and found that strange things would happen, either the map rotation would not work, voting would suddenly turn itself on and things like disintegration mode would not activate (even though it was set).

The only advice that I can give you at this point is that when you set up your scripts try to use 2 scripts, 1 for your server settings and 1 for your map rotation. A good reason for this is that you can have multiple map rotations and you can then swap between them on the fly without having to restart EF. You could also add other scripts to do things like turning on and off passwords.

If you need sample scripts them please email me [SOL]MadMax and I will send the ones that I use, minus my details of course.

It is also a good idea to create a small batch file on your desktop to run EF using your script. This just saves fiddling around every time you want to run your server.

Good luck with your server and I may pay you a visit one day

that sounds like what I was getting after starting a server using EFrunner..........so after trying many times I gave up and looked at the links Embattle posted .........

after looking at the info I then set 1 up .........some parts worked some did'nt.. ......but I'm getting there .......

theres a few things that I could do with some help on......E.G:----

binding a key 2 start map rotations .......
binding a key 2 lock or unlock server ...if it can be done????
or is it better 2 do that from the blue box after server is up???

all so u said something about a shortcut 2 start the server on my desk top ?????

I think I'll take u up on ur offer of a sample scripts if thats still ok
[SOL]MadMax ......I'll b in touch....

thanks 4 all your help so far.........
