BC2CC launches!

[ukimpact]

After several weeks in development we are finally ready to unveil the first public beta (Beta 0. of the Bad Company 2 CC tool.

This version is only compatible with the R1 version of the game (release version). We will have a patch available by the time R3 (The day 1 patch) version becomes available that fixes the majority of bugs and adds a large amount of new features.

Here's an overview of what our tool is capable of in its limited R1 state:

BC2CC Admin tool features:

Multiple server support: working

Playerlist: working but not split by team (information isn’t returned in R1)

Serveroptions: only used to set a game password right now

Map list: working, next map is still wonky in R1, occasionally works, other times it doesn’t it also loads a random map in the maplist instead of the nextmap. (+ the list currently doesn’t update when switching gamemodes, that’s our tool, patch for that tomorrow)

Reserved slots: fully working

Banlist: Working, but gets cleared after a restart, haven’t tested with R3 yet. Removing individual bans doesn’t work in R1. Should work in R3. To remove a ban now you’ll need to clear the entire banlist.

Ingame commands: Fully working, you can whitelist players to use specific ingame commands. (@kick, @ban, @unban (doesn’t work at the moment), @restart map, @nextmap (wonky doesn’t always work))
Known bugs:
- unbanning individual players doesn’t work (you need to clear all bans to remove them)
- Maplist doesn’t update properly
- nextmap doesn’t always work
- Playerlist doesn’t show teams
- Ingame commands currently only work when SOMEONE has the tool opened, they aren’t shared between tools (Won’t be supported till we build the serverside daemon)
- Occasional crash bugs
- Ingame vars cannot be set till R3
- Only set password is supported on the serveroptions page
- Punkbuster cannot be set yet (will be supported shortly after the R3 release through an additional tab with all pb options)
- Updater always prompts that there is an update (semi bug, we have a higher version number listed already, will ask the guys to remove this for now)
We hope this tool gives server administrators the tools they need for the first few days of launch till the R3 patch is released. After this we will release a more extended toolset that allows for full server control.

Just d/l and install the beta and have a look.

Where do we find the event port needed?

[soulz2003]

Just installed it, looks great .

[scotty588]

event port is 48889 although a security flaw was found so it seems some GSPs have disabled rcon for now.

[soulz2003]

So, will this tool work with all GSP's?

[i3D-Ramon]

Hi everyone,

yes the tool will work with every GSP. The eventport is something that was used at the launch version but was removed in the day1 patch. An update (beta 1.0) is released tomorrow morning which adds extra functionality and is compatible with the day1 patch.

[soulz2003]

Great news. Thanks for letting us know .

[Sgt.Nightfire]

Those bugs look like really heavy game breakers....

There is no separate event port with server R3 (Day 1 Patch), it's the same as the command port.

Well i was thinking with a server connected to it.

I hate how i3d forums trys to make you sign up to view threads..

[Docility]

too bad it doesnt really work. You have to leave it open, and change a map to get settings to work, and you cant close it out, and if it does all the changes are undone. its very frustrating.

I don't understand, is the OP from DICE?
Because the logo/avatar under your name, isn't the same as the rest of the DICE guys'??

No the OP isn't from DICE he's from i3d who I imagine use some kind of SDK/API from DICE to produce their own server admin software, the avatar is a joke.

Make sure your using your query/admin port and not the game port.
