How to set up an unranked server with battlefield recorder?

[Robske007a]

I would like to make a move with some friends of mine on a server of our own with battlefield recorder. I've searched and I don't find a good guide on how to set up an unranked server [with BFR] can someone post some guidelines?

Am I able to run a server on my computer, let some friends connect to my IP and be able to play on that computer too?

Thanks, Robske007a

errr, what happend? I can see my thread twice in the list?

You can set up a local server and play on it, we've done that - need to check on available ports. Your amount of resources will play into that as well.

Our unranked server runs BFR, I'm not sure on the setup of it....will look @ it.

Will my friends be able to connect to my server then? my computer has plenty of resources *smiles* so will I be able to play BF2 and host a server with BFR at the same time?

How will your friends be connecting? Over LAN or over the net? Do you want to store the BR files locally or on an ftp?

Let me know because the setup varies depending on where the BR files are to be stored.

I want to set up an unranked BF2 server with BFR.
the BFR file must be stored on drive E:/demos/
My friends will be connecting over the net.

I have a wireless router, useing bitdefender firewall.
My computer specs are in my signature.

I'm planning to shoot a movie on that server with my friends.

OMG!! Is that what he was asking??

Take a look in the rotate_demo.cfg file, in the root bf2 server folder...

# set the number of demo files to keep in rotation
file_limit = 30

# for local web server; edit this path and make it match the one in serversettings.con
target_root = /path/to/webroot/demos

# set to 1 to enable ftp uploading
use_ftp = 0

# set to the target directory on the ftp server
ftp_target_dir = /path/to/webroot/demos

# login information for the ftp server goes here
ftp_server = my.ftp.server
ftp_user = my_user
ftp_password = my_password

Then edit the serversettings.con, located in mods\bf2\Settings,
and look for this -->

sv.autoRecord 0
sv.demoIndexURL http://
sv.demoDownloadURL http://
sv.autoDemoHook "adminutils/demo/rotate_demo.exe"
sv.demoQuality 1

And change it to something like this:

sv.autoRecord 1
sv.demoIndexURL http://battle-recorder.nbfclansite.com/
sv.demoDownloadURL http://battle-recorder.nbfclansite.com/demos/
sv.autoDemoHook "adminutils/demo/rotate_demo.py"
sv.demoQuality 1


Hope this helps.
