Deer Hunter 2004 - Parameters to Launch a Dedicated Server Using Command-line or

Batch File (BAT)

====================================================================================

============================

>>> Dedicated-server, launching from a command-line or batch file (BAT):

It is possible to launch a dedicated-server without initializing the game itself

(without graphics and

sounds). It allows you to launch a server in a network server computer more

easily, like adding a command

to the machine's start up configuration.

Please take a look at the "RunDedicated.bat" file (send it to the Notepad) to get

an example of how to

launch a dedicated-server using a BAT file.

When a dedicated-server is launched by this method, it will not start up graphics

and sounds of the

game. The initial loading process is silent and takes some seconds to the server

be online.

One important point is DirectX still required in the machine. The game doesn't

start graphics and sounds

but it uses the DirectPlay API to deal with network stuff.

This game uses the TCP/IP port number 23457 to communicate, so if you want to

configure your firewall

to host a match you can allow this port number.

>>> Available parameters:

When building the command-line, you can use these instructions to launch the game:

-Dedicated_Server:{TRUE or FALSE}
