  • ATTN: Battlefield1942 Server Admins Repost from ER

    The BF1942 Remote Server Manager utility has finally been released! If you run a Battlefield server on a remote box, you NEED this utility. Mong the features are..

    - Change the current server settings (a subset of those in Server Manager)
    - Manage the map rotation i.e load new map, set next map, restart current map
    - Manage players i.e kick and ban
    - Manage the ban list i.e add address, remove address, clear ban list.
    - See the settings of all running servers at the IP address
    - Monitor servers running at the IP address and optionally sound a crash alarm
    - Type commands directly at the server console in a window


    On the same page is also a replacement utility for the Battlefield DedicateServer.exe. The Battlefield 1942 Dedicated Server Manager has a BUNCH of options that aren't in the original DedicatedServer.exe. Some of it's features are as follows..

    - Reads the current server settings from the config files at startup
    - Includes all known server settings that can be set in the config files
    - Supports multiple server configurations via command-line option
    - Supports multiple server instances on a single computer
    - Can start and stop a dedicated server without using the console
    - Can monitor and automatically restart a server in the event of a crash
    - Works with both the retail game and retail dedicated servers
    - Can minimize the server window which is not normally possible
    - Detects custom maps and allow you to include them in the map rotation
    - Includes tool tips that tell you what each setting does
