Wanted: tutorial to set up your own server

[Hannibal]

also..since i tend to forget some things ..your server/host machine will need to have disabled ipv6 in registry otherwise you won't be able to connect to the server..

2.you can set a server for you and your son quite easy...just run flserver from game folder/exe/ and make use of the flhook

The question is very simple: how do I RUN this flhook? How do I start up this flhook console?

If this is just for you and your son, then run flserver in the discovery exe folder. Anyone on your home network can then join, but no one outside of the house. Saves you from all of the port forewarding and router setup. and ou can try out the game and the POB's. Kind of lonely with just 2 players but you get a feel for the game.

Being my own admin makes it easy to give my self a lot of cash, a good reputation and enables me to jump to every where. Instead of needing to travel hours to obtain goods, I just need seconds. So bases can be build and upgraded in a very short time. If I don't like its position, being an admin I can move it. I can cheange its reputation etc. etc. But I need to be an admin first.....

It starts automatically when you run flserver.

There will be 2 windows, the one which looks like Command line is the flhook console.

The console that opens with the server, write in:

setadmin CHARNAME superadmin

First I'm very sorry for all the double posts and this test message but what ever I did, I got a 504 time out error. And only just minutes ago I noticed that the messages have been published.
But it is possible that this message pops up twice because the moment I pressed "Post reply", I got a time out error.

It starts automatically when you run flserver.

No, I only get this blue FLserver window, no command line.

I feel really stupid: first of all the double posts and now of something that obviously should work right out of the box.

Thank you for your patience!

After launching flserver you will see window which asks you to set name, description and some other options. After setting them and clicking OK the flhook console will appear as the separate window.
