Post subject:  Server Help

Alright, I've been trying to get Ballistic Weapons working nice-nice on my server, but I'm running into a few problems.

I downloaded 2.0, 2.1 patch, map pack and BP4 all in zip mode, and I merged all the files together and uploaded to the server as one would. My server is 'vanilla' in the sense I've only added some 3rd party maps, and the BW mutators and whatnot. I use the BallisticV21.Game_BallisticXXX as the gametypes instead of adding the mutators to normal DM. I also just use the normal swap mode with weapons rotating in and out.

1: My first question is, can I safely delete any of the 2.0 files or are they necessary? Like BCoreV2.u and BCoreV21.u, etc.

2: Second question, are my server packages correct for using BW with any gametype that isn't using vehicles? I don't care about using vehicles as I won't be running VCTF, ONS, AS, etc.

ServerPackages=BCoreV21
ServerPackages=BallisticV21
ServerPackages=BWBPOneV21
ServerPackages=BWBPTwoV21
ServerPackages=BWBPThreeV21
ServerPackages=BWBPFour
ServerPackages=BWBPFourB

3: Lastly, I've been having three issues, two of which I think I fixed:

3.1: First one was, randomly when you spawned in the server you would be stuck with only a melee weapon and could pick up other guns, but couldn't switch to or see them. I may have fixed it by changing the V2 packages to end in V21, but I'm not 100% sure yet. There was no 2.1 readme file saying to change the server package lines which is why I didn't do it in the first place.

3.2: Second, randomly, when you go into the 'turret' mode of some of the machine guns, and you get back up from it, all your weapons disappear, except for pistols and melee. It's random and happens rarely.

3.3: Thirdly, sometimes weapons are randomly not replaced. Seems to only happen with the UT2004 rocket launcher so far. One map load it does get replaced properly, another map load it won't. Even the same map twice in a row could be one way or the other. I *may* have fixed it too with bKillRogueWeaponPickups=True.


On another note, I love this mod, definitely my favorite for UT2004 so keep up to great work guys.
