Having covered the steps for connecting to a game, let's now shift our focus to starting your own server: |
|
|
Initiate the game using your preferred method, and if you're interested in using mods, remember to utilize the Frosty Tool Suite. Not interested in mods? No problem – simply click 'Start Game. |
|
| Wait for the launcher to integrate with the game and for the game to load crucial assets. |
|
|
When the game is prepared, you have the choice to explore the server browser or take the initiative to host your own game. Now, let's focus on hosting a game by clicking 'HOST A GAME.' |
|
|
Hosting a game is a straightforward process: Adjust the settings to align with your preferences, select a map, and click 'RUN MAP.' Note: If you keep the server name unchanged, MARNE will automatically use your PC's hostname as the server name. |
|
|
Map Rotation: To streamline the process and avoid ALT+Tabbing out of the game to switch to the next map, you can set up a map rotation. Simply select a map, choose the game mode, specify the number of rounds, and add it to the rotation list. The selected map will automatically commence on the next round. |
|
|
Settings: In this section, you can configure server settings that will be retained every time you start your server. Settings follow a basic format: <class>.<setting> <value> For instance: Server.ServerName "My first MARNE server" Simply enter these settings line by line. |
|
You should now be well-equipped to commence your own game and join existing servers.
