How do you configure gg5?

Postby madcap » Sat Jun 04, 2011 9:25 am

I can't find any documentation explaining how to actually configure gg5. The old gg3 had a .cfg file with all the GG settings. The new gg5 .cfg file only contains this:

//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
// GunGame 5.1 GunGame Development Team
// gg_server.cfg
//
// This is a server.cfg type of file that will be loaded
// with GunGame.
//
//-----------------------------------------------------------------------------



:S

What I want to know in particular is how to change the weapon order

Ok so I was missing the config file which regenerated when i restarted the server. There still seems to be a lack of documentation for this mod though.

So, if you spent a few seconds to look at the forums you posted in, you would have seen a section called, "GunGame5.1 Documentation"

On the Wiki link at the top of the page, you will find this:

http://wiki.gungame.net/pages/Main_Page ... th_GunGame

...which contains the link to the installation documentation. In Step 4 of the installation instructions, it states "When GunGame 5.1 is loaded for the first time, it will generate configuration files in ../cfg/gungame51/".

The wiki isn't finished, by any means, but it has most of what is necessary already on it.

Also, just a note, but the gg_server.cfg is "only" for non-GunGame cvars. Basically, if you want to run GunGame sometimes and other times not, any differences between the base cvars you run during non-GG and GG types should be set in the gg_server.cfg file. For instance, let's say you want to mp_timelimit set to 60 minutes during non-GG and 0 for GG (so you don't end the map during the GG), you would put mp_timelimit 60 in your server.cfg and mp_timelimit 0 in your gg_server.cfg.

Yeah I read through that already but it still didn't help. I didn't know what the specific file was called.

If you look on the main page:
http://wiki.gungame.net/pages/Main_Page

We have links to Included and Custom Addons. The Included have all the info about them you need:
http://wiki.gungame.net/pages/Scripts.included

We should probably add that info to the Installation page, though, which I will do shortly.

We have not added any info on weapon_orders, yet, though, which is one of the things I have been meaning to add. But if you search the forum, there are 'recent' examples of people asking about them:
viewtopic.php?f=70&t=1866

Here is a more detailed response on the EventScripts forum:

I am a bit confused on the subject as well, i managed a gg4 server a while back and was expecting a similar set-up but i have been confused for a bit now.

There seems to be no defualt settings. I followed ur link to included addons http://wiki.gungame.net/pages/Scripts.included and all the addons say things like "gg_turbo contains the following cvars that can be found in your server's ../cfg/gungame51/included_addon_configs/gg_turbo.cfg file:". The gungame i downloaded did not come with any of these files in there directories and none of them were put here in when i loaded gun game.

Also, gun game seems to be running completely silent, it is giving no feedback in game (on successful load or unload)

Wenn, what is your server's IP address? Sounds like you might be running a version of gungame other than GunGame51.

Those files will be created the very first time you load GunGame51 on the server. Make sure your server has the correct permissions set on the cfg/gungame51 folder (and it's subfolders), so that those files can be created. Also, are there any log files that might help us out? Please look in your server's ../cfg/gungame51/logs/ folder, and post the contents of any of the files in there. You might also try downloading, installing, and es_load'ing ExceptHook, which will catch errors when GunGame51 is loaded if you do not have access to the server's console:

Thanks for the reply, i actually figured out my problem and forget to post back here.

Turns out my event scripts was having troubles and wasn't loading gun game correctly. After I looked in the server console and saw the eventscripts popping out errors, i just reinstalled it and gun game started functioning correctly, it then generated all those missing cfg files and I have been able to figure it out from there.
