BEC Admin Issue

[Stiglove]

Okay, so since we have to BEC as part of the system I am trying to get it setup and what not. However when it comes to the A3_Admins.xml I am having an issue

 

I am using this:

 

<admin id="0">

<name>Niyars</name>

<guid>ProfileID From Game</guid>

<group>0</group>

<groupname>Testing Admin</groupname>

</admin>

 

and when I go to start BEC it is telling me invaild GUID, however it's the ID from my profile and the same ID I have applied for infastar on our old A2 server. I've tried the good ole google function, but nothing seems to fall into place, and I might just be missing it.

 

Thanks

GUID is not ProfileID.

 

GUID is a 32 length string, something like this: 7f55a0ed8b021080de00960cc73768fb

 

To get this, go ingame and right after you connect, the server will display your GUID botom left.

 

Ho Ho Ho

[Stiglove]

haha, epic fail on that front then. Thank you good sir.

 

 

Now that the system throws no errors

 

using the IP 127.0.0.1 or the actual IP 192.95.30.202 with the port, it says waiting for server.

 

I have the Plugins folder in the BEC folder as well. I have even tried the augment --dsc and nothing.

Update the Battleserver.dll in your Battleye folder. The one packed with the files is v1.96, you need v1.97.

[Stiglove]

Okay, I installed the 1.97 in the Battleye folder and the SC/Battleye. and I am still not getting a connection. Running, the --dsc provides the following in the log

 

13:58:45 : Starting plugin : WatchDog V.0.16

13:58:45 : Creating watchdog for admin file...

13:58:45 : Creating watchdog for command file...

13:58:45 : Creating watchdog for whitelist file...

13:58:45 : Creating watchdog for BE filter files...

13:59:49 : Lost Connection!

13:59:49 : Closing socket & exiting!

 

 

And nothing using the regular parameters.

Your problem probably lies here:

//ServerExeName = NewArmaExeName.exe

That's not how you comment out a line in an XML file. Use # instead. Also, this option must be set. Use the .exe filename you use to start the server. Eg: arma3server.exe

[Stiglove]

Thanks, however it stills says it has a problem connecting, but there is no error. It is telling me to make sure the server is running, and the settings are correct.  :angry:

[RC_Robio]

I had updated to v1.197 but it reverts back to 1.196.... But anywho Is Battleye starting with your server in the console window?

[Stiglove]

I don't have a console window, since I have it running through FireDaemon, however I after I installed the new battleye, I ran it through the server.exe and it shows version 1.197.
