I am trying to setup scrolling messages in COD WaW. I was successfully able to do this in my COD4 server with the srvmsgs.cfg file listed in the COD4 forum.

I added the line 'pb_sv_load srvmsgs.cfg' to my pbsv.cfg file on my WaW server and restarted the server. Weird thing happened. When I am in full console, (shift ~), I see the messages scrolling just fine. When I get back into game, I don't see anything.

Also when I issue a pb_sv_restart, i usually see a "Punkbuster Server ....." message that appears when punkbuster is starting. I do not see this either.

So this got me thinking that the punkbuster messaging is hidden or something. But going through my PB pbsv.cfg and my COD5 config.cfg files don't list anything that would stop it from appearing.

Any thoughts?

Thanks.

if your using pb_sv_say message you need to change it to just say
EX:
pb_sv_task 10 120 "say ^0[^2RUF^0]^7 ^3Clan is now recruiting! ^2Visit ^5www.^7RUFClan^5.com ^2For Details"
pb_sv_task 10 120 "say ^0[^2RUF^0]= ^9Respect, ^9Unity, ^2and ^9Fun!"
pb_sv_task 30 120 "say ^2Join us at ^5www.^7RUFClan^5.com"
pb_sv_task 50 120 "say ^1Cheaters will be burned!"
pb_sv_task 70 120 "say ^4Welcome to ^7RUF ^1HC ^4TDM"
pb_sv_task 90 120 "say ^2Join us on ^1T^2e^3a^4m^5s^6p^7e^8a^9k^0! ^3Visit ^5www.^7RUFClan^5.com ^3For Info"
pb_sv_task 110 120 "say ^2Favorite our servers please!"

I put mine into a pbsvuser.cfg file along with my md5 and cvar checks.

Changing the pb_sv_say command to just the 'say command worked to bring the messages up at the console.

Is there some reason not to use the pb_sv_say command? I really like having the message appear at the bottom of the screen?

Thanks for the reply. I was driving myself crazy.

so all you did was add this to your pbsvuser.cfg?

pb_sv_task 10 120 "say ^0[^2RUF^0]^7 ^3Clan is now recruiting! ^2Visit ^5www.^7RUFClan^5.com ^2For Details"
pb_sv_task 10 120 "say ^0[^2RUF^0]= ^9Respect, ^9Unity, ^2and ^9Fun!"
pb_sv_task 30 120 "say ^2Join us at ^5www.^7RUFClan^5.com"
pb_sv_task 50 120 "say ^1Cheaters will be burned!"
pb_sv_task 70 120 "say ^4Welcome to ^7RUF ^1HC ^4TDM"
pb_sv_task 90 120 "say ^2Join us on ^1T^2e^3a^4m^5s^6p^7e^8a^9k^0! ^3Visit ^5www.^7RUFClan^5.com ^3For Info"
pb_sv_task 110 120 "say ^2Favorite our servers please!"

Do a PB_SV_TList command and view the results. Verify you do not have any duplicate tasks.

Your timing for those messages if off. Sometimes this can cause that problem too.

If your messages start 10 seconds after the server starts, and you have 20 seconds between each message, with 4 messages.

Then your timing would look like this

pb_sv_task 10 80 say "^2LIVE Server STATS on www.dow-stats.com"
pb_sv_task 30 80 say "^2~DoW~ is now RECRUITING ages 16+ apply @ www.dow-stats.com"
pb_sv_task 50 80 say "^2Like our server? Please consider donating to help us keep it going"
pb_sv_task 70 80 say "^3Please Add our Servers to your Favorites!!!

This will loop your messages every 20 seconds without overlapping or repeating. But you might want to spread them out a little. 20 seconds between messages isn't long. People may get tired of the spam.

Below is a sample to run your 4 messages 30 seconds after the server starts and one every 90 seconds after that.

pb_sv_task 30 330 say "^2LIVE Server STATS on www.dow-stats.com"
pb_sv_task 120 330 say "^2~DoW~ is now RECRUITING ages 16+ apply @ www.dow-stats.com"
pb_sv_task 210 330 say "^2Like our server? Please consider donating to help us keep it going"
pb_sv_task 300 330 say "^3Please Add our Servers to your Favorites!!!

I have the scrolling messages running within my pbsv.cfg, under the pb tasks section. They work fine for me. I am using the generated pbsrv.cfg file for COD WaW found here at PBBans.

here is what I have:

pb_sv_task 30 180 say "^2We are recruiting mature gamers. Apply at ^7www.teamv3.com^2.
pb_sv_task 90 180 say "^2Rules are: ^7No Cheating ^2and ^7No Crybaby Bullshit^2!!!
pb_sv_task 120 180 say "^2Join us on our public Ventrilo server, ^7IP: 69.12.77.2:3110"
pb_sv_task 150 180 say "^2Enjoy the Carnage? Well add us to your ^7Favorites^2!!!

Is it different for BF2 and BF2142?

My scrolling messages are in a messages.cfg file, but I'd like to change the colors of certain groupings.

Ours currently look like this:

Quote

pb_sv_task 120 660 game.sayAll "§3§c1001***Courtesy Rules***"
pb_sv_task 125 660 game.sayAll "§3§c10011.Do not disrespect other players, members or admins at any time while on our server."

Is this correct?

Will the following color codes work and if so, where do I put them in the line?
  • ^1 - Red
  • ^2 - Neon Greenish
  • ^3 - Yellow
  • ^4 - Blue
  • ^5 - Light blue
  • ^6 - Pink
  • ^7 - White
  • ^8 - The color of the current allies team
  • ^9 - German Grey
Also, I know that the first number indicates the time frame in seconds that you want them to scroll, but does anyone know what the second set of numbers represent (highlighted in red)?

Quote

pb_sv_task 120 660 game.sayAll
