Linux on escapeturkey

Im setting up a linux server with escapeturkey server company and I cant get it to start. Below is the startup commands. My question is can anyone show me the root directory so I know mine is correct where i installed the FortessForver folder.

server_exec="srcds_i486"
game_directory="hlds_source/orangebox"
server_mod_directory="FortressForever"
server_port="27015"
server_ip="108.178.55.111"
maxplayers="20"
fps_max="600"
tickrate="66"
vac="-secure"
server_config="server.cfg"
start_map="ff_2fort"
rcon_password="argonneeyecandy"
server_log_name=""
username="balababa"

I know the mod runs off the HL2mp so here is my directory

hlds_source/orangebox/FortessForver

the hl2dm folder is in the orangebox folder also so is it installed correct?

I dont know anything about setting up a server. but if the directory is anything to go by we're on source 2006 not 'orangebox' so that might lead you to a solution. If not I'm sure someone knowledgeable in this area will chime in.

hlds_source/orangebox should be hlds_source/FortressForever

None of the FF folders should be under the orangebox directory

Linux FF server

Any luck with this? Cant seem to do a fresh install of FF

Code:
./steam -command update -game hl2mp -dir ff -verify_all
  0:56 [205.196.6.130:27030] Disconnecting
HLDS installation up to date
user@router:~/steam$ 




this is the dir structure  



user@router:~/steam$ tree -L 2 ff
ff
├── hl2
│** ├── materials
│** ├── models
│** └── sound
├── InstallRecord.blob
└── orangebox
    ├── bin
    ├── core
    ├── hl2
    ├── hl2mp
    ├── srcds_linux
    ├── srcds_run
    └── steam_appid.txt




How is FortressForever supposed to run not under the orangebox dir? No server files etc
this is with FF in the root folder



user@router:~/steam/ff$ ls
FortressForever  hl2  InstallRecord.blob  orangebox


user@router:~/steam/ff/orangebox$ ./srcds_run -game FortressForever
ERROR: Invalid game type 'FortressForever' sepecified.
Tue Feb 12 17:19:07 PST 2013: Server Failed



invalid game.

Now with FF in the orangebox folder



user@router:~/steam/ff/orangebox$ ls
bin  core  FortressForever  hl2  hl2mp  srcds_linux  srcds_run  steam_appid.txt

This time it doesnt complain about game type and crashes



user@router:~/steam/ff/orangebox$ ./srcds_run -game FortressForever +map ff_dm
Auto detecting CPU
Using default binary: ./srcds_linux
Server will auto-restart if there is a crash.

Add "-debug" to the ./srcds_run command line to generate a debug.log to help with solving this problem
Tue Feb 12 17:21:03 PST 2013: Server restart in 10 seconds
Tue Feb 12 17:21:06 PST 2013: Server Quit
Did an update break ff or what? I must be missing something.

This is ubuntu 12.04
Linux router 3.2.0-35-generic #55-Ubuntu SMP Wed Dec 5 17:42:16 UTC 2012 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Send a message via AIM to squeek.
HL2DM is on the Orangebox (Source SDK 2007) engine, FF is not.

You need the EP1 engine files (Source SDK 2006). Use this -game parameter to get the correct engine files:
Code:
-game episode1
Here's a full guide: http://www.fortress-forever.com/wiki...nstall_a_SRCDS

I'm guessing the guide was written before they released Orange Box and its associated engine update. Do you have a link to the wiki page?
