Hi
Today i will tell you how to set up a Renegade FDS:Free Dedicated Server
Things you will need for your FDS.
1.User name
2.Password
3.Serial number
4.Away to get your server noticed

Renegade FDS Tutorial!

Now first thing is to get the FDS Where you say?
Renegade FDS DownloadLink 1
Renegade FDS DownloadLink 2
Now start it up click next i accept, now in this Tutorial we will be setting it up for Westwood Online.
For the Westwood online login name Put blah for the Password put 12345678 we will be changeing it l8r.
for the serial put 0669000000000000000000 again we will change it
make sure it say's C:\Westwood\RenegadeFDS than
make sure both westwood online and server componets are checked
just click next on the next window and than next again to install it.

Now come's the hard part setting up your server so it will go online.
OK we will be editing Server.ini Go to this folder to find it C:\Westwood\RenegadeFDS\Server it is normaly at the bottom of the folder it say's server open that up
You will get this, what is in Color you will need to fix.
Server.ini Settings


I belive that is it enjoy your new server at least you got past the installing and setting up part i hope, now stop bugging people to help you make a server.

Let me know if i need to change some thing or is my spelling is off.

Now this really should be pinned.

Please leave feedback.

Thanks a lot for your help.
But till now we have something puzzled such as:
1)How to make the brenbot actived in order to make the commands like the !donate, !backup and so on can be used by players?
2)How to setup up the RANK Ladder System in our server?
3)How can we do some remote control to the server by our own microcomputers?
4)And could you please supply more details about the process of server setup which likes the ATOMIX (describe it step by step?) if you have time?
Thank you again for your help.

in server.ini there's a "port = xxxx". Set this port to e.g. "5555" and then forward port 5555 in your router admin to your server's internal IP address.

www.portforward.com for more info on how to do this.

Each router admin is different, so it's hard.

if you go there it will tell you each step how to do it.

each router is different then the other but the link to it is normally the same 192.168.2.1 is the normal link.

Wrong! any router i have accessed from new the ip to it is/was 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1, of course you can change it to 192.168.2.1 but defaults that i have seen are mostly 192.168.0.1 or 192.168.1.1 etc. anyways i am just clarifing that all, why i have no clue but did/am lol.

I just tried this. I installed the server itself, the No Gameplay Pending fix, the serverside Core Patch 2, and scripts.dll 3.4.4 (in that order). But when I try to launch the server, a blue DOS command prompt window comes up, says a few things, and then goes into this "Creating game channel...
Failed to create channel
Retrying channel create" loop and then restarts itself after a while.

How do I fix this? Dont Get It

EDIT: Apparently, it's doing this because I don't have a valid serial. Huh

So how do I get a valid serial?

Goto the FDS installation folder and find the file server.ini.
Once you have found it, open it and search for:
Serial = XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Replace the code with your Renegade serial WITHOUT dashes.
Also make sure your FDS logs in online on another nick then you do.

I just got the server working. Finally.

Distrbd21

; GameType =
;
; Set this to WOL for a Westwood Online dedicated server.
; Set this to GameSpy for a GameSpy mode dedicated server.
; Set this to LAN for a LAN mode dedicated server.
;

GameType = WOL If you want LAN


I find this part of the tutorial confusing. Do I set this to WOL if I want the server to host a LAN game, or do I set it to LAN for a LAN game?

That the server nickname must have numbers is bullshit.
My server nick is Omarserv. IDK about you but I don't see any numbers there Razz

Easiest way IMO is just setting a password on the server and run it on WOL Thumbs Up

My server didn't work, I added "11" to the end of the server's nickname, and then it worked. Maybe the nickname just wasn't long enough. Eh
