You replace the server executables and edit your serversettings.con file to any number you wish up to 128 in game.serverMaxPlayers. I'll upload tomorrow the patched BFServerManager packages for Linux.

inside the BF1942.exe must be still a 64 player max limit which the internet menu meme file is calling for:

Image
dice::meme::CallFunctionAction
dice::meme::Function -ext: ServerInfo/ScrollUpPlayerInfoList

// in the Listbox you see max 64 ppl

dice::meme::BfListBoxData -ext: ServerInfo/PlayerInfoList // -> max 64 visible


// Scoll Down Function
dice::meme::CallFunctionAction
dice::meme::Function -ext: ServerInfo/ScrollDownPlayerInfoList

But the protocoll transfers all player names & player IDs ABOVE 64+ from the server + gamespy masterserver ( cause you can see them all correctly in HLSW)

Maybe Tuia finds this limiter in the BF1942.exe and can remove it.

here a HLSW Screen ( where you can see Player ID + Player Name above64)

Please, could you provide the link to download the patched BFServerManager v2.01 packages for Linux?

Sorry for the delay. I could not finish patching all the limitations in BFServerManager. It crashes when you reach around 80 players in the server, players above 64 don't show up in the player list and other minor things. Mind that, this is a work-in-progress, as it is BFServerManager for Windows, it lets you select up to 128 players and has some small cosmetic changes.

BFServerManager v2.0 (final) for Linux patched:
bfservermanager20final-patched.tar.gz
MD5: 11FEB8FC3931906E635BB953786D023E

BFServerManager v2.01 for Linux patched:
bfservermanager201-patched.tar.gz
MD5: EB45E17C8ABCDAFEC2A3E2A53E7D9AC0

try this one here its only tested locally with bots so may not work online in "real" conditions.
The URL seems to be down for the maxbots.con file (if the URL actually does lead to that ); can somebody fix the link? Other than that, excellent explanation.

The players details show perfectly normal in the Player List, however it only shows 64 players, not more. So when more than 64 players are in the server, you can't target those extra players and if it's an in-game admin his commands in the server chat won't be recognized by BFServerManager.

Hey tuia,

Or anyone else, keep getting a "segmentation fault" error;

Upload the server manager first, then the server files and get:

[mafia@null bf1942]$ ./bfsmd -restart -daemon
Segmentation fault



All file permissions are correct, This is for linux 1.6.
Can you explain what is going on?
