Psycondriact 0 Report post Posted June 30, 2015 Hey there, This Saturday I'm hosting a LAN party where we are going to be playing COD4. I would very much like to introduce my friends (about 25 of them) to Obscurity. Unfortunately, I have no idea how to host a (modded) LAN server. I would love some assistance in this please Thanks, PsyDuck out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted June 30, 2015 It's very simple and pretty much the same as hosting an online game. Download the version of obscurity you would like. (Make sure the clients have the same mod or setup a redirect) Place it in your mod directory and clients create a bat file if using windows cd ..\..\iw3mp.exe +set fs_game "mods\[modname]" +set dedicated 1 +set net_port [port] +set g_gametype "obs_elim" +exec personal.cfg +exec obsucirty.cfg +map [map you want] If you are going to use codx just change the iw3mp.exe to whatever codx is named. This is how I test my deathrun server but I have never run an obs server so hopefully someone can confirm this is the correct method. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IJzzo 1,072 Report post Posted June 30, 2015 Well I think you can just host a listen server. Install the original obscurity mod into your modfolder and you should be able to select it from mod menu. Then start new server. I think that works. However everyone has to install the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fisher 101 Report post Posted June 30, 2015 Problem with that ninja is normally it sets the gametype to tdm or ffa instead of the correct gametype but I'm not sure with obs. Plus this lets him leave the game without it closing the server. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mc.Joker 929 Report post Posted June 30, 2015 Yep the way of fisher is better. I've tried running a server like your way @Ninja and with the mod Obs it won't work that great. Took me a long time. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
