need advice 6 Months, 1 Week ago  
Greetings to all players!

I have a simple question...
How to create a random campaign including maps I download from net?

I´d like to play with my roommates via hamachi other campaigns than just the original one... I tried to look up instructions, and tried many programs that are supposed to create campaign, but nothing worked... If someone could tell me how to make it work (not too complicated instructions - I´m not good with computers at all) I would be very happy and grateful...

Thanks in advance for any help!

Hi

First of all, download/install the following program...

www.etpub.org/request.php?9

You will need all of the map files included within the campaign.

Use the program to create the campaign. When adding maps to the campaign file (within the program) you will need to browse to the folder before adding them. ie - browse to c:/program files/enemy territory/etmain . You will need to save the cfg and pk3 file in the etmain directory of the hosters system. They will then become available to select when hosting a game.

Some issues.......

1. If the campaign wont start or the campaign stops/restarts after a certain map then its due to an incorrect map name within the pk3 file. pk3 files can be opened via winrar.

2. Incomplete or outdated dat files on hosters system. = Update or just live with the error messages.

Many many others tbh..

Best way of doing the above is by using 1 lan machine as a dedicated server. Create a server.cfg, run etded.exe with the command line switches as follows....by this i mean edit the shortcut to etded.exe and add the following as needed in the target box

"C:Program FilesEnemy TerritoryETded.exe" +set fs_game etpro +set com_hunkmegs 128 +exec server.cfg

Make sure to create a server.cfg or edit the default one within etmain. Change passwords etc and set whatever dedicated options you need. At some point within the server.cfg add a line to exec campaignfile.cfg . ofc making sure the campaignfile.cfg and pk3 are both within etmain on the hosting system.

If you need some help then drop onto irc for a chat using the above web-->irc tab.

Go to the x-multigaming irc channel. There is an elder man there, of grey hair and infinite wisdom, the one they call Toxicdave. Go, and tell him that Ifa sent you, and that it is time once again for his spirit to roam free and solve other people's problems...

Well I managed to run the campaign already even though I still have to read those instructions over again, but It´s ok

Also I don´t know what IRC is

IRC - Internet relay chat.

Basically its a live chat stream. We have our own channel on quakenet network which by clicking the above link opens a window where you type your name and click connect.

Once connected you can chat to us live rather than waiting for a response on the forum. Plz note, you do not need an irc client to use the above webirc tab. Imo open webirc in a new window then you can keep connected while you browse/play et.
