Installation
TOST44 + ESESupport 

Overview:


Notes:

!! During Open-Beta phase, it will not be possible for individuals to Register their server or Download the Server files from the Account Manager "My Servers" Tab. When these are available to you, ESE Team will be notify everyone accordingly. !!

!! TOSTProtect is NOT compatable with ESE, so delete all references to TOSTProtect from your Server.ini !!

!! Note! Do not use Wordpad.exe we have found in the past this can create problems, we suggest you use NotePad.exe !!

!! Note! References to 'yy' or 'zz', E.G. "TOST44zz" means the latest TOST version available (TOST4413 is latest at time writing this) !!

Installation of TOST:

Update TOST43 to TOST44:

1.) STOP the server

2.) BACKUP your server.ini

3.) CREATE a new folder ./44yy/ in your TOSTFolder

4.) UPLOAD the TOSTFiles in this folder

5.) OPEN your server.ini and edit following lines:

  • CHANGE from Paths=../TOST/43/*.u to Paths=../TOST/44xx/*.u

//located under section: [Core.System]

  • CHANGE from ServerPackages=TOST43 to ServerPackages=TOST44
  • DELETE from ServerPackages=TOSTProtect24
  • CHANGE from ServerActors=TOST43.TOSTServerQuery to ServerActors=TOST44.TOSTServerQuery
  • CHANGE from ServerActors=TOST43.TOSTServerActor to ServerActors=TOST44.TOSTServerActor

  • (be sure you have both lines in the ini)

    // all located under section: [Engine.GameEngine]

It should look like this:

[Engine.GameEngine]
ServerPackages=Botpack
ServerPackages=ActorResetter
ServerPackages=TOModels
ServerPackages=TODecos
ServerPackages=TODatas
ServerPackages=TOPModels
ServerPackages=s_SWAT
ServerPackages=TOST44
ServerPackages=TOSTClient
ServerPackages=TOSTGUICtrl
ServerPackages=TOSTHitparade
ServerActors=TOST44.TOSTServerQuery
ServerActors=TOST44.TOSTServerActor
ServerActors=UWeb.WebServer
ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerUplink MasterServerAddress=unreal.epicgames.com MasterServerPort=27900
ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerUplink MasterServerAddress=master0.gamespy.com MasterServerPort=27900
ServerActors=IpServer.UdpServerUplink MasterServerAddress=master.qtracker.com MasterServerPort=27900

6.) UPLOAD the server.ini and START the server (some additional lines are added to your Server.ini).

7.) STOP your server again, (as you'll need to change some of the settings added in your Server.ini)..

Note!You'll see some connecting errors in the log file, as the server can't authenticate it self to the TRUSTServer. This is normal.

8.) OPEN the TacticalOps-Server.ini / Server.ini (or other possible file names) with a Text Editor and scroll to the bottom of the file.

Note! Do not use Wordpad.exe we have found in the past this can create problems, we suggest you use NotePad.exe

ESESupport has created a new section at the bottom:

[ESESupport.ESESupport]
ServerAccount=
ServerPassword=


In the E-Mail you received upon registering your Game Server with ESE, are the missing values for the above settings.
Enter the missing values and store them safely !

9.) Start the Game Server and take a look at the log file.

It should contain the following line: ESE-Support: Authentication successful

If this line is shown in your Server Log, everything is OK. If it's not, you have a problem, in which case contact one of the ESE members immediately.

Update TOST44xx to TOST44yy

a.) STOP the server

b.) Create a new folder 44yy in your TOSTFolder

c.) UPLOAD the new TOSTFiles in this new TOSTFolder

d.) Download the server.ini and change this line:

[Core.System]
Paths=../TOST/44xx/*.u
to
[Core.System]
Paths=../TOST/44yy/*.u

// this will tell TOST/ESE to look in the new folder path for the latest release files

c.) START the server

// We suggest you also contact your Server provider to make sure your Server.INI file has write-access, otherwise it will create further problems since it will not be able to save config changes in-game via the Game or Admin Tabs

// Make sure you enter the ServerAccount and ServerPassword values from the ESE server registration E-mail you received.

 

- Your Server don't connect with the ESE-Trust-Server, even though the login details are correct.

// Make sure you do not have a space after the ServerAccount and ServicePassword values.
// Check that your Server IP + PORT are the same as the one you registered ESE with.

If the logindetails are ok and the IP+PORT are correct, change the following Setting in your Server.ini:

[ESESupport.ESESupport]
bFastServerAuth=False

If that doesen't help too => contact the friendly ESE-Support Team
