Is there any fix for this problem Jariz Please fix it.

Hi Jariz,

ok i really want server messages to scroll ingame.
i read the install, but call me thick, never managed to get this working.

this is what i did:

1) i have a dedicated windows 2008 server i rent.
i have downloaded the mw3 dedicated server files from steam to my desktop, i have copied that folder and placed it inside my D drive (so this will be my server).

2) I have followed step 2 of the install guide and downloaded the file (Server Addon.zip).
I have uploaded & extracted to my dedibox: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing
so now i have a folder in the directory called: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing\Server Addon

3) I have followed step 3 of the install guide and downloaded the file (RCON2.zip).
I have uploaded & extracted to my dedibox: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing\Server Addon\plugins
so now i have a file in the directory called: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing\Server Addon\plugins\RCON2.dll

4) I have then followed step 4 of the install guide and started: iw5mp_server.exe
and typed rcon_password "testing" in the console.
(i have a server.cfg file located: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing\admin)

5) server launched with this image:


6) I have then downloaded the client, installed it and tried to connect to server.
nothing happens!
all ports are correctly forwarded in the servers firewall, i have checked.

i have even installed the client on the dedibox and tried to connect but still nothing happens, any advise as to what i am doing wrong here please sir?

mant thanks for your time and efforts.

@utdfederation Clearly looks like the addon doesn't even load.
I assume you installed the addon?

I have uploaded & extracted to my dedibox: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing
so now i have a folder in the directory called: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing\Server Addon

theres an updater.exe file in: D:\GamingServers\MW3_Testing\Server Addon\addon\dist
i have clicked that and a command box quickly appears then disappears.

but apart from that there is nothing else in there to install.

have i forgot something here?

my xfire is; utdfederation
if it makes things easier.

the addon needs to go in the root of the server, not in a invidual map
aka the same place where iw5mp_server.exe is

---

also i don't got xfire, but i do have msn and steam

my server tree:

admin (folder)
appache (folder)
config (folder)
logs (folder)
main (folder)
miles (folder)
Redist (folder)
Server Addon (folder)
zone (folder)

iw5mp_server.exe

and all the other files.....

sent you a PM

ok nevermind it is running now

only problem i have now is the client reports "connection fail" when setting up.

does it have to use port: 28930?
can i not use port: 40034?

ok nevermind again managed to get it working.

like i said before, only problem i am having now is the client will not connect to server and i have set the ports in the firewall

But What to me man what i have to do to fix it tell me

dont mean to be negative here Chottan, but if you ask in the correct manner you will no doubt receive an answer.

just posting:

"But What to me man what i have to do to fix it tell me"

comes accross as very rude, almost demanding an answer.

food for thought eh!

@Chottan I've been busy with other stuff, but I will soon look into this, you're not the only one expierencing this
