Hello, all!

I'm setting up E+ 1.03 TDM server and got the following problem (plz, see attached files): when i try to use config with map rotation file, i get server's cvar 'sv_cheats' set to 1! In my config I set it to 0 (when i connect my server it says that 'cheats are anabled', and when i type sv_cheats in server's console i got the response: "sv_cheats" is:"1" default:"1"). I got the same problem with 'sv_pure': when server is running, sv_pure is 0, but I set it to 1 in my config. I can't understand, what i'm doing wrong. I tried to put the strings "sv_cheats 0" and "sv_pure 1" to end of server config (just before starting map rotation), but it doesn't make any difference - I still get wrong values when server is running.
Well, sv_pure can be changed while the server is running (it's not a problem, just inconvenient), but sv_cheats can't.
And rotation can be set up using vstr (by setting 'nextmap' var) - in that case i got sv_cheats 0 (great!), and sv_pure is 0, too (awww).

Can anybody tell me what's going on and what i'm doing wrong? Rolling on the floor
I hope someone will help.

Regards.

Well, thanx for answering, but sorry, guys, this doesn't work - values of cvars are not changed. Furthermore, after each server's run sv_cheats cvar in ExcessivePlus\q3config.cfg is set to 1 (and sv_pure is set to Innocent! Where the heck do this values come from?! And yes, guys, I've already set sv_pure 1 in command line (and sv_cheats 0, too), I just forgot to mention it, sorry. And I also made sure that none of my config files contain lines with "wrong" values for sv_cheats and sv_pure cvars.
I'll repeat, just in case Happy , that this problem only occurrs if rotation.txt is used (E+ feature), but if I loop maps using vstr inside exec'ed server config file (without E+ features, just with means of q3), that works great, and I get all my cvars with "right" values set by me.

PS. I don't get it, how do I use seta in rotation.txt? Another syntax of assigning value to a cvar is used there: cvar_name: value. So, I placed there two lines (in the beginning of file, before the first map is specified):
sv_pure: 1
sv_cheats: 0
but this didn't work, as I already mentioned Sad

Try following:
Turn server off, than delete q3config, than turn server on again. U dont use any set/seta in rotation.txt, but in server.cfg u should use seta.

I am too long away of setting up servers actually, that i could help u more, u may get in touch with camel.

I stopped server, deleted q3config.cfg, then started server again, but the problem persists (I still have sv_cheats 1 and sv_pure Innocent.
I remind Happy that if I don't use rotation.txt, this problem is NOT present - all cvars have the values I have set before, REGARDLESS of whether q3config.cfg deleted or not.
Anyway, thanx for answernig again Cool

Still waiting for resolution to come.

Check

fs_homepath

or set it to your dir with q3config.cfg, crontab, rotation etc.

I've checked fs_homepath - it points to directory where q3 is installed to:
d:\quake III arena

well, i guess i should use another words Rolling on the floor

ok. i got two configs of e+ tdm server. the only difference beetween them is that one of them uses rotation.txt for map rotation, and another doesn't use rotation.txt for map rotation - instead it uses looping maps with vstr macros. this is *the only* difference, the rest contents of configs is the same. that is, both configs contain commands sv_cheats 0 and sv_pure 1 (and other stuff, see attached file, plz), but one has this as effective setting, and another don't.

so, when i use the one with reference to rotation.txt, i got sv_cheats 1 (by default - server says) and sv_pure is 0. when i use almost the same conf, but without reference to rotation.txt, then all works fine. and setting these cvars in command line doesn't affect anything - server still has sv_cheats 1 and sv_pure 0. deleting q3config.cfg doesn't affect anything either.

any ideas?
