Начало

Это намного легче чем кажется на первый взгляд чтоб установить и запустить ваш сервер для Internet или LAN сетей. Следуйте этой статье чтоб создать ваш MTA SA DM сервер.

Установка сервера

Сервера MTA SA DM доступны для разных Операционных Систем.

Установка сервера под Linux

I installed the server on ubuntu 6.05 LTS. I will add installation instructions for other linux distros at a later time. This install was done on a fresh os install so a few things have to be installed first. First of all ssh into your server using whatever client you like. I prefer putty. Start by typing sudo apt-get upgrade It will prompt you to put your password in again. After the upgrade is done running type sudo apt-get install pico this will install the easy to use pico text editor that you will use to edit the config files. After the install is done running you need to get a copy of libcurl3 for the server to run so type sudo apt-get install libcurl3 Once again it will ask you for your password. Once this is done now we have to get the server program onto your Linux server. There are a few methods for doing this. you can install a ftp server. you can use putty file transfer. If you know someone with a website you can ask them to put the file on their website then use wget http://wwww.websitename.com/file.tar Obviously where website name is change to your friends website. Either way once you have the tar file on your server you need to unpack it you do this by using the command tar -zxvf filename.tar

Установка сервера под Windows

Установка MTA:SA DM сервера в Windows легче.

  • Перейдите на страницу загрузки и прокрутите ниже до "Dedicated servers" секции.
  • Нажмите на Windows ссылку.
  • После загрузки запустите клиент.
  • Выберете папку где вы хотите установить сервер.
  • Нажмите Install.
  • Это все, установка завершена!

Настройка сервера

Begin by opening the 'mtaserver.conf' file, which is located in the <SERVER>/mods/deathmatch directory in a text editor, for example Windows Notepad.

This file is fairly straightforward; every variable has a description of what to do with it and how to change it.

Добавление администраторов

For a full explanation of acl.xml (access control list) read: Access Control List

To add admins to your sever follow these steps:

  1. Browse to your servers 'deathmatch' folder and open Accounts.xml
  2. Add a new account into the file with the syntax below

    'Accounts.xml syntax'

    <account name="Username" password="UserPassword" />
    
  3. Save and close the file
  4. Open acl.xml
  5. Select the rights of the admin, either Moderator, SuperModerator or Admin
  6. Within the group you have selected add the account you have created above with the syntax below
    <object name="user.Username" />
    

    You will finish with something like this:

    <group name="Admin">
    ...
    <object name="user.Username" />
    </group>
    
  7. You're done! You can add as many admins as you want this way, just keep creating accounts under eachother and the same with the ACL rights.

Note: Changing these files requires a restart of the server
Note 2: There are also ways to add accounts and edit rights for the server while it's running. "addaccount <user> <password>" is an internal command to add accounts, through the web interface you can manage ACL rights while it's running. (This option may be a better option for you if the first does not work)

Configuring an external web server

For performance or consistency reasons, you could choose to make use of an external web server already set up and running, instead of the built-in web server. The external web server needs to be accessible for the public, so any client will be able to download the necessary client-side files in order to join and play on your server.

To enable downloading off an external web server, you should configure the httpdownload and httpdownloadurl tags in your server configuration:

<httpdownload>1</httpdownload>	
<httpdownloadurl>http://www.myserver.tld/directory/here</httpdownloadurl>

Since all the default resources provided with the dedicated server are zipped, and are normally automatically extracted by the built-in web server, you now have to provide a way for the clients to download the unextracted files to their computers. The unextracted files are always available in the <SERVER>/mods/deathmatch/resourcecache directory.

  1. Launch the dedicated server once and exit again. This will extract the zip files into the <SERVER>/mods/deathmatch/resourcecache directory.
  2. Go into the directory above and copy the resources to your external web server's public directory, this can be done in several ways:
    • If you don't care about your server-side files being publically available: create a symbolic link (Linux), a junction (Windows) or just plain copy the contents of the resourcecache directory to your public web server directory.
    • If you don't want your server files to be publically available through your web server: go into the resourcecache directory and manually copy the folders over to your public web server directory, removing any server-side files (they are not necessary for the client-side downloading) you do not want to be hosting on your web server.

      A quick way of securing your server-side files is currently not available. We will investigate into developing a tool that automatically copies only the necessary client-side files for all resources on your server.

Note: Please try to avoid any special characters (e.g. ~, !) in your download URLs.
Note 2: Please do not use a trailing slash in your download URL (e.g. hxxp://www.myserver.tld/directory rather than hxxp://www.myserver.tld/directory/)

Запуск сервера

Перед запуском сервера удостоверьтесь что вы завершили все настройки сервера!

Чтоб запустить MTA SA DM сервер кликните два раза на MTA Server.exe (в папке с сервером), удостоверьтесь что файрволл или антивирус не перекрывает доступ для MTA SA DM. Если все прошло удачно то сервер запущен удачно!

Установка/Обвновление resources на вашем сервере

Resources can come in two formats, either a ZIP format or just a normal folder with the script files inside it. The MTA:SA DM server supports both these methods.

  1. Move or copy the new resource to your <SERVER>\mods\deathmatch\resources folder.
  2. In the server window type in the command "refresh" (without the quotes), this will re-scan the resources folder and update the live resources where necessary.

Удаление resources

Resources can easily be removed from your server if you no longer want them.

  1. Delete the ZIP file or the folder of the resource you wish to uninstall
  2. In the server window type in the command "refresh" (without the quotes), this will re-scan the resources folder and update the live resources where necessary.

Администрирование сервера

You can start resources by typing the command "start resourcename" in the server console, or stop ones with "stop resourcename".

It's also possible to execute these and other admin commands from the ingame console (which you can bring up with the ` key or F8); for this to work, you first need to log in with the command "login username password". Additionally, you can press the p key to bring up the admin panel: this is a graphical interface which allows you to easily kick or ban misbehaving players, among others.

For further commands, type "help" in a console.

Starting a map/gamemode

See the commands section of the documentation for mapmanager for more information.

Remotely administrating your server

This article assumes you have setup a working account with 'Admin' user rights, and have these resources started:

  1. ResourceBrowser
  2. ResourceManager
  3. WebAdmin
  4. WebMap

You're able to access these great remote admin tools by visiting http://<yourserverip>:<httpport>/resourcebrowser in your Firefox. NOTE: Internet Explorer will NOT work, it will not display the resource browser, other browsers (Opera namely) will have mixed results. If you want it to work in Internet Explorer, feel free to recode the resource :)

Useful Notes

  1. You may also update the resources while ingame as long as you have the correct access levels by typing "refresh" in the clients console or "/refresh" in the chat window. This may cause a second of lag if you have many resources.
  2. In the above instructions, <SERVER> is the path to your server's main directory. In most cases this is C:\Program Files\MTA San Andreas\server
