Hello,

 

 

I have activated my server but now I do not know the next step. How do I get it running and visible on the Multiplayer list? Is my username the server name?

You need to create a mission (or use one you have downloaded) and you will need to edit/create a .sds file to load from the dedicated server software. The .sds will load the mission and set preferences for your multiplayer server. Once you have it loaded it will will show up in the multiplayer list in-game. The name of the server is also set in the .sds like this (example from the server me and my buddys are using):

// server info

ranked = 0
allowMouseJoy = 0
ServerName = "XboyzSE Air Ops"

serverDesc = "Private server for members of the Swedish gaming community Xboyz.se"

The mission files should be placed in the ../data/Multiplayer/Dogfight folder

 

This is the full basic .sds file I am using:

// Generated by dserver

// credentials

login = "REMOVED@REMOVED.REMOVED"
password = "REMOVED"

// server info

ranked = 0
allowMouseJoy = 0
ServerName = "XboyzSE Air Ops"

serverDesc = "Private server for members of the Swedish gaming community Xboyz.se"

// connection settings

protection = "REMOVED"
maxClients = 65
maxClientPing = 200
ExternalIP = 1
ServerIP = ""
DownloadLimit = 10240
UploadLimit = 10240
DownloaderPort = 28100
TCPPort = 28000
UDPPort = 28000

// remote console settings

RconStart = 0
RconIP = ""
RconPort = 8991
RconLogin = ""
RconPassword = ""

// mission rotation data

ShutdownLoads = -1

[rotation]
random = false
file="Dogfight\duel2"
[end]

// preset and advanced settings

preset = 0

// preset: server related

killNotification = 1
friendlyFireReturn = 0
finishMissionIfLanded = 0
lockPayloads = 0
lockSkins = 0
lockFuelLoads = 0
lockWeaponModes = 0
penaltyTimeout = 0
respawnTimeout = 0
coalitionChangeTimeout = 0
finishMissionTimeout = 0
missionEndTimeout = 0
idleKickTimeout = 900
tdmPointsPerRound = 500
tdmRoundTime = -1
coalitionsBalancer = false

// preset: mission related

objectIcons = false
navigationIcons = false
aimingHelp = false
courseWeaponsAimingHelp = false
padlock = false
simpleDevices = false
allowSpectator = true

easyFlight = false
autoCoordination = false
autoThrottle = false
autoPilot = false
autoThrottleLimit = false
autoMix = true
autoRadiator = true

noMoment = false
noWind = false
noMisfire = false
noBreak = false
invulnerability = false
unlimitFuel = false
unlimitAmmo = false
engineNoStop = false
hotEngine = true

Login = the email you used for your second 'server account'.

File = the mission you want to fly. In the example above it is called duel2 (duel2.msnbin).

Thank buddy, I hardly understand any of that but it does help me out. At least I have a starting point now.
