How to setup a DA2 server

  • Two Factor Authentication is now available on BeyondUnreal Forums. To configure it, visit your Profile and look for the "Two Step Verification" option on the left side. We can send codes via email (may be slower) or you can set up any TOTP Authenticator app on your phone (Authy, Google Authenticator, etc) to deliver codes. It is highly recommended that you configure this to keep your account safe.

Can you post an example server startup command?

I'm erroring out with:
./ucc-bin server DA2-LastHope.ut2 -mod=DA2

I assume gametype or something is missing.

Thanks

Try using:

Start-> Run

X:\UT2004\UT2004.exe -server -mod=DA2

Console window will show up if all is fine then use command servertravel da2-<mapname>. If you had your server settings setup in DA2 or UT2004 it should already use them, like number of bots etc.

However, you can still use addbox <number> to add bots into the server.

Hope this helps.

Thanks for the quick reply. I'm looking specifically to launch a linux server from a command line. I haven't had any issues with other mods, so I figure I have something missing in the command. This is what I see:

./ucc-bin server DA2-LastHope.ut2 -mod=DA2 --nohomedir

Executing Class Engine.ServerCommandlet
Browse: DA2-LastHope.ut2?Name=daPlayer?Class=DA2.da_players_ClassPlayer?Character=Generic?team=255?Sex=M?Voice=XGame.AlienMaleVoice

The issue has been resolved by re-installing DA2 from the zip file and launching the server with the following command:

./ucc-bin server DA2-BlackGold.ut2 -mod=DA2 -log=server.log

Thanks!
