Hi all,
I have a question about starting WoP in linux dedicated server mode.
Is it possible to stare WoP dedicated server from command line and without the graphic mode ? I wouldn't to use the graphic libraries.
I have an old pc and I would like to use it to house a WoP dedicated server. I would to start WoP in background mode (as a daemon) with the X server switched off.

Thanks
Federico

Yes!

Someone else already asked this in the german forum, have a look at this.
As you might don't speak german, I'll translate the main part.  <P

Inside your WoP installation-folder there is a file called wopded.
Start it with these parameters (that's just an example):
Code:
/wopded +set dedicated 2 +exec server_config.cfg


Basically, all serverconfig from there on is quite the same as for a q3-server, so these pages may also help you: 1, 2.
There are also some default configs inside your wop-folder, have a look at them too :)

whats the difference between wopded and wop ? I normally start a server using the command
wop +dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

should i use wopded instead?

Steer clear of incorrect verb forms that have snuck into the language. Never ever say never. I must have told you a million times to resist hyperbole. Never use a long word when a diminutive one will do. Place pronouns as close as possible, especially in long sentences, as of ten or more words, to their antecedents. A writer must not shift your point of view. Don't use no double negatives. A preposition is a terrible word to end a sentence with. And don't start a sentence with a conjunction.

AFAIK the wop-executable requires a working OpenGL system and propably X too.
wopded runs without any graphics-librarys.

If your PC has OpenGL both should work just fine, but I think wopded uses less ressources.
