Wonder if the configs are included in the server installation. I would like to know too.

[sir_frags]

No, no server.cfg in the ff_server.zip. But my server is going up tomorrow for sure and I have some people working with me on the server.cfg. As soon as I get the bugs worked out, I will post it here to help others out.

for a start i'd drop those class limits to begin with and play that by ear. remember this isnt tfc

as for the rest of it, i'll let a comrade of mine pick that one up..

Here's what I put in my valve.rc for [GoW]Odin's Graveyard

do i see no snipers ?

We'd like to encourage server operators not to limit classes for the moment, as everyone wants to try different classes as it's a new game. Also, the balance is much different to tfc so there shouldn't be a need to alter class balance manually. It's your server and you're free to do what you like though, of course

[sir_frags]

cr_random will not work and you will have to take out that decimal point from your timelimit. On mine when I use 30.5 the time will not change or work with mani's ma_timeleft command. So I removed the .5 and now the time works fine. Here is my server.cfg I have up on my server currently.

Ah cool thanks for heads up on timelimit. I haven't had time to do any admin plugins yet so I hadn't run into that problem yet.

Copy that on the class limits, I do have sniper enabled on certain maps.

cr_random and setinfo are unknown to FF so take that out.

[Ihmhi]

Christ people, get out of the old TFC mindset and let the game be a little freeform for longer than a day.

The devs should have coded out the classlimits for the initial release. Bah.
