Rcon Password Problem.
« on: July 10, 2009, 01:53:18 am »
Sorry, if this is in the wrong area. It has to do with the coding in the files. Anyway, I searched everywhere on the forums and I can't manage to set the rcon password on my server. I want to make myself an admin, using:

Code: [Select]
/rcon "mypassword" !setlevel "TremulousUsername" 5.
However, it says that there is no rcon password set. On my server.cfg I have:

Code: [Select]
set rconPassword "MyPassword"
I also have this on my admin.dat:

Code: [Select]
[admin]
name    = Master Admin
guid    =
level   = 5
flags   = *
Though, it still says there is no rcon password set. Can anyone help me out? How do I set the rcon password and make my self an admin on my server? Thanks in advance.

(Also, I have two servers with a (IPX) next to one of the names and a (UDP) to the other. Which should I use???)

Okay, now what should I write to make myself the admin?

The default is now my password. Now, what do I type to make myself admin? Also, type it in the game console or in the blue box console?

Go to the blue console and type "!setlevel yourname 5" (without the quotes).
Ignore the rcon stuffs.

broadcast: print "server: !setlevel MY_USERNAME 5\n"
 time

That's what popped up- It didn't work. What do I do? Also, where can I download to make it so I have those ! codes?

First Blue box was with that, second said no such thing as !setlevel.

The INGAME console, not the windows command prompt. FFS.

It looks like you don't have a QVM, there are many around, and easy to set up.
Download a QVM, (maybe Lakitu's with patches, look around). Put it in your server folder:
Windows XP: C:/Documents and Settings/(Your user)/Application Data/Tremulous/base/vm/game.qvm
Windows Vista: C:/Users/(Your user)/Appdata/roaming/Tremulous/base/vm/game.qvm
(Those are just my guesses at the defaults, I could be wrong)

Hope this helps! :)

Edit: I know this is a few days late, maybe you have fixed it, maybe not...
