Crash Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 I understand the format, but where is the file to set icon colour, range etc? Or how do I set it up. Is there a GUI for it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snacko Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 Bearcat and Fruitbat posted how to set this up at the ubi forums here: http://forums.ubi.co...l=1#post6639812 The short version is this: In your game folder is a file called rcu. Just rcu nothing else. You can edit it in notepad and put in a line to tell it to call the new file they have you create called icons.rcu. In the icons.rcu file is where you put your icon settings. And you have one more command in there to tell IL2 to reload these icon settings so it doesn't reset them to defaults (or whatever it does that screws them up after a while..)

Whacker Posted August 21, 2012 Share Posted August 21, 2012 Whilst we are on this topic... Is there a guide or FAQ or anything on how to configure a dedicated server? I managed to download, install, and patch the DS up to v4.11.1 and get it working, but I can't really find anything at all on server commands, configs, or other options. For example how to set up a map rotation, how to change maps via the console, how to enable or disable certain settings, console command lists, etc etc etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example how to set up a map rotation, how to change maps via the console, how to enable or disable certain settings, console command lists, etc etc etc. Me thinks there's no manual on how to do it step-by-step, or a complete one...To do advanced stuff, like mission rotation, you'll be needing extra software like fbdeamon, or IL2ServerCommander. I've been looking for links... some info is available. FbDeamon: http://wiki.sturmovi...?title=FBDaemon (German language!!) FbDeamon server commands IL2SC: http://wiki.sturmovi...English_Version We have (had?) two dedicated servers running.... one for DogFights only, and one with mission rotation. Both are (were?) based on IL21946 with UP3 RC4 mod set. The simple commands should also be available. Here's a long thread on IL2's dedicated server, starting with Crazy Ivans' setup guide. To get it all together, and to understand it all... daunting task... Good Luck, and Have Fun! Oh, one more simple tip in the command prompt of the server, you should be able to get some help on commands by typing 'Help' (or maybe 'help') Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crash Posted August 22, 2012 Author Share Posted August 22, 2012 Thanks for your help last night FT. its now sorted. Just need to set up some macros for giving me scores etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1. DDz Quorum FoolTrottel Posted August 22, 2012 1. DDz Quorum Share Posted August 22, 2012 For scores, just add the command user to the icons.rcu file. Every minute, the scores will then be listed in the console, press shift-tab to check them out. Should you think once a minute is too low a frequency or refresh, then drop the 60000 to 20000 or 10000 for twenty resp. ten seconds refresh.
