How to make a Dedicated Server

DavideC · **Posted:** Mon May 07, 2012 11:54 am

Alright, my server is up and running now. On my dedicated machine.

Yet, i don't know how am i supposed to change it's name. It just appears as "Udk server", and i tried to change the ServerName line in PCServer-UDKGame.conf (as reported from one of the community heads). Nothing happens....

There are two PcServer.Config in two different folders, i've changed both, nothing.

Please, devs, would you tell us how to change the damn server name? Thanks...

Hi DavideC,

Could you post your command line plz so we can see what folder/file you need to edit

Ok cool

the file you need to edit will be UDKGame\config\PCServer-UDKGame.ini look for hostname

Nice, it works now! Thank you SO MUCH.

I did change that file previously (before the first server boot) and i found it changed again to the default name now (after the boot).

Once changed it again, it now works and my server has finally a name

Are there any commands to set Admin, or Server Password? Or does anyone manage to get any other commands to work other then those that had been posted?

You can set an admin password using ?AdminPassword=isuckatpasswords (replace that obviously) and then the admin system.

Open the console and type adminlogin passwordhere

then adminkickban for bans

adminkick for kicks

Could someone tell me the exact location to put the admin login command line what it should look like if im running a single server please.

All helps appreciatted

Okay figured out the Admin. The only problem we are having is changing the credits!

Anyone else having issues with their server player counts? Even when someone leaves or is kicked it keeps them as a ghost image in the server and takes up a spot.

Its a bug atm most servers showing full are in fact empty :-(

Will the risk for computer infections increase if I open port 7777, 7778 and 7779?

And first page needs to be updated so we don't have to read 4 pages in order to get this working =)

Opening any port on your firewall/router is a risk.
