Sorry that was probably me. Was trying to change to a mix server, guess that didn't work out to well.

i cant remember now if you do that wiht procon, or if its an additional program. Ill look into it when i get the time.

There is no need for any additional commands or add-on. The current version of BC2cc is capable of doing just that. And if you haven't updated please do so.

Wanna post the link up oneill. I found a download for a newer version but it wont work fro me. As it is right now im kind of restricted as to making changes.

Inmate Canadian Cell Block Joined: May 09, 2005 Posts: 599

It's version 1.2.0 and in my case it asked me if I wanted to selfupdate. The only thing I could suggest, is that you reinstall 1.0.0 vertion and may be it would ask you if you want to update.
http://www.bc2cc.com/download/ that's link to their site and you will see that they already have 1.2.1 version.

The download from the site wouldn't work, but i found a link somewhere that did. The thing to keep in mind running mixed gametypes is if your bc2cc crashes , or you turn your computer off, it stays on the last map and game type played until someone changes it.

Alright. The server hasn't filled up ever since the last patch, and the usual tricks to fill it no longer work. Do you guys want to shut it down or move it to a different game or keep it up?

I'd say kill it, but different game, witch one?

Inmate Cell Block C Joined: Jul 19, 2005 Posts: 302

kill it. or turn it into a MW2 server Rolling Eyes

Inmate Canadian Cell Block Joined: May 09, 2005 Posts: 599

Server has been full all day long and seems holding steady. At this rate we maybe don't have to kill it at all. It'd be nice to see some of you on line once in a while too. Very Happy

It took a few days of screwing around , but it is cancelled. And yes i did notice it filled up. Happened shortly after recieving notification that the cancelation had gone through.
