[Server Request] Arma 2 Operation Arrowhead #926
Comments
there is no arma 2 linux distro available via steamcmd, i had to manually install https://forums.bistudio.com/topic/189123-arma-2-operation-arrowhead-linux-server-163130836/ you 'can' use steamcmd to install the arma2 game files.... but you need to install the dedicated server binary manually. have a read here,,, |
I'm actually using lgsm with Arma 2. I modified the A3 version a bit to fit arma2 fiels and installed arma2 game files manually. |
It's worth submitting your work to the development branch. If possible to get the installer working. |
It will require some polishing, so hopefully if I'll find some time to do that this month, I'll try to submit it. Maybe I'll get the installer working as well... |
@FliesWithWind If you don't have much time, you can just send it as it is, and we'll figure this out. |
Well I took a look at it today, and here is what I have so far. It allows to start, restart and stop the server. When it comes to installation it's a bit tricky. At first we need to get Arma 2 and Arma 2 CO files for Windows using steamcmd. This can be done by using "@sSteamCmdForcePlatformType windows", but if I'm not mistaken this can be only used with txt script file. So this installation will be a bit different comparing to other game server files. Installation tutorial posted here by igeighty could be ideal for instalation script.
Hope what I wrote is more or less clear, it shouldn't be hard to create this install script. One more thing about arma 2 oa is that all server files need to be in lowercase, so after uploading some mission files to mpmission folder, user needs to run "install" script. I would suggest to add this "install" script as a fix which ich launched before server start. I hope with this we could add Arma 2 OA to lgsm, I wish I could help you more but I don't know how lgsm exactly operates and my bash skills are not that great. :) Anyhow I will try to help as much as I can. ;) |
Bump... I would really like support for this pls |
I can manually create a bundle outside of steam and integrate that into lgsm |
As a fan of Arma series, I tried to implement older Arma game servers in LGSM multiple times. No success :/
So process should looks like this:
In my opinion, it's too much to clean implement it in LinuxGSM. But only server binary, with fix to automatically rename the content to lowercase it's a option. |
