Dedicated Server Package

29 posts in this topic

Source/Download: https://github.com/maca134/exile-server-package

This package contains unmodified mission/server files in the source directory

This is a collection of batch file to make deploying an Exile server on a dedicated machine or local server really easy.

You need SteamCMD, you can get it from here and MySQL server from here, if you dont already have them.

Install

  1. Download the latest release of this repo here & Exile client mod
  2. Extract the folder to the location were you want the server.
  3. Create a database and execute the exile.sql
  4. TURN OF SQL STRICT MODE Info
  5. Edit config.bat to your needs
  6. Run download_arma.bat to download ARMA 3 from Steam
  7. Run start.bat and your server should run

Batch Files

  • config.bat - Contains the servers settings
  • download_arma.bat - Download ARMA 3 via SteamCMD
  • prestart.bat - Sets up the servers configs etc (use this in firedeamon)
  • start.bat - Runs the prestart.bat and starts the server exe

Folders

  • config: This contains all the various config files needed. Battleye filters live in here.
  • dump: Used to copy src files and run find/replace
  • run: This is were all the live files get compiled to. Editing stuff in here is pointless. You may need to view RPT/Be logs in here while the server is running.
  • source: This is were all the exile servers (mission, exile_server, exile_server_config) files are stored.

How do I set this up if I am unable to run batch files?

I rented an Arma 3 server specifically for this mod but it's not something where I can run batch files or create database servers.

this is for a dedi server not a rented server..you should have all the files you need on a rented server without useing this!

and great work maca this is simply sweet!!!!!!
