RodeoBob Posted April 9, 2005 Share Posted April 9, 2005 I personally recommend HLSW and I use it daily to administer my server. You can do any of the internal RCON commands. Some people like to use other programs....but to help those who don't know how to do RCON commands unless they are in the game.....here ya go: First, go download the latest version of HLSW here: http://www.hlsw.net/index.php?page=downloa...p;category=hlsw Once you have it installed, you need to configure it. I will show you an example of how to setup HLSW to work with SoF2. Do the following and this should help get you started. Click Server List Click New Change File Name to SoF2 Change Name to SoF2 Click OK Now you have a special area setup for the SoF2 servers. Now, let's continue the configuration so that you can browse for SoF2 servers on the internet. Click Server List Click Properties Click on Gamers Search Server List Click on Gamers Search (at the top of the window) Now select Soldier of Fortune 2 on the drop down menu Click OK Press F6 You have configured HLSW to show you SoF2 servers that are active and on the internet. Now, let's configure HLSW where you can do RCON commands. Click View Check RCON Section Check Server List Check Rules Check Player Name Check Toolbar Check Status Bar Check Ping Graph Check Display colors in player and server names Now, let's find your game server. Click Server Click Find.....Server Name In the top bar...where the cursor is blinking....enter your server name (like {VOD}) Once you found your server.....highlight the entry Now, let's enter your RCON password. Enter the RCON password in the block at the bottom Click Test Check the box for Save If you entered the correct password, it will tell you....and you will also see a Star appear beside your server in the main window. Now, lets enter a RCON command. Just below where you entered your RCON password, you will see a tab that says Console.....click it. In the bar at the bottom type this for a test: /pb_sv_writecfg You should see the command and the reply displayed in the status window. Well there ya go.....now ya have SoF2 done.....now ya can press on with the other games that you have. What I did was even made my own personal list....and copied all of the servers there that I use frequently. Any questions.....thoughts....or suggestions?
