how do I host from linux?

How do I install the mod and launch the server in linux?
I was able to host a game frommy Windows box but my UT2004 runs on linux.

Ok, basically, do this:

New patch is out, right? Then run UCC from the command line like so (it's in UT2004/System)

UCC server FHI-MapName.ut2 -mod=FHIMod

I think that's about it. You may want to config some stuff through FHIMod.ini, but that's all you need to do to get a server up and running.

got some problems hosting the game (don't have acces to command line :x)
is there another possibility that works?

I'm afraid I'm not a Linux guru, so I can't solve your problem truthfully.

I'll ask Will, who switches between Windows and Linux, he made some shell files to use as a Linux alternative to the batch files. I'll let you know when I can get hold of him.

thanks, but ment it this way:

a possibility so that the mod appears in the webinterface, or an admin-ingame-command, so that you can change the mod like a gametype, from tdm to fhi

Thanks, that's exactly what I was looking for. I didn't knwo about the "mod" command line argument.
By looking at where the files were installed on the windows version I should be able to figure it all out.

no one who can help me with my problem? is there really no command for the ingame-console or something like this to change to FHI? Oo

No, because Epic fowled up launching the server from the in-game GUI.

You have to use UCC.

If you can get command line access, change directory to UT2004/System and use:

ucc server FHI-mapname -mod=FHIMod
