| |
|
| |
|
| This guide will walk you through the process of setting up a dedicated server for MARNE. Follow the instructions below step-by-step to ensure proper configuration and functionality of your server.
| |
|
| |
| == Requirements ==
| |
| Before setting up your dedicated server, make sure you have the following prerequisites:
| |
| * '''Hardware Requirements''': A mediocre PC should work just fine.
| |
| * '''Operating System''': Windows 10 or higher.
| |
| * '''Software Dependencies''':
| |
| ** VC++ Redistributable ([https://aka.ms/vs/17/release/vc_redist.x64.exe latest version])
| |
| ** [https://github.com/CadeEvs/FrostyToolsuite/releases Frosty Tool Suite] (if you plan on hosting modded servers)
| |
| * '''MARNE Launcher''': Download the latest version from the [https://marne.io official MARNE download page].
| |
|
| |
| == Step 1: Downloading and Installing the Server ==
| |
| # Make sure Battlefield 1 is installed.
| |
| # Download the latest files from the [https://marne.io official MARNE download page].
| |
|
| |
| == Step 2: Configuring the Server ==
| |
| Once the game files are in place, you need to configure the server [[Settings]] according to your preferences:
| |
|
| |
| === Open the Configuration File ===
| |
| * Create a '''ServerSettings.txt''' file inside the games root directory (e. g. C:\Programs (x86)\EA Games\Battlefield 1).
| |
| * Open the file with a text editor such as Notepad, Notepad++ or Visual Studio Code.
| |
|
| |
| === Edit Basic [[Settings]] ===
| |
| Add or modify the following lines in the configuration file:
| |
| Server.ServerName "My Dedicated Server"
| |
| Server.AdministrationPassword "SuperSecurePassword123"
| |
| Server.ServerPassword "OptionalPassword"
| |
| Network.ServerPort 25200
| |
|
| |
| If your server is supposed to be visible inside your LAN only use this setting:
| |
| MARNE.LanMode true
| |
|
| |
| '''Note:''' Always enclose values with spaces in quotation marks (e.g., `"My Dedicated Server"`).
| |
|
| |
| === Save the Configuration ===
| |
| After editing the configuration file, save it and close the text editor.
| |
|
| |
| == Step 3: Starting the Server ==
| |
| # Launch '''[[Marne Launcher|MarneLauncher.exe]]'''.
| |
| # Click '''DEDICATED SERVER'''.
| |
| # You should now see a window where you can either connect to an existing instance or start a new one: Click '''START SERVER'''.
| |
| # Check the server console for any error messages.
| |
| # If the startup completes without issues, your server should now be live.
| |
|
| |
| Alternatively, if you want to use the [https://github.com/CadeEvs/FrostyToolsuite/releases Frosty Mod Manager] to start the server:
| |
| # Open the '''Frosty Mod Manager''' from the Frosty Tool Suite.
| |
| # Select the Battlefield 1 game profile.
| |
| # Ensure that the mods you want are loaded and applied.
| |
| # Click '''Launch''' in Frosty Mod Manager.
| |
| # After launching, check that a new server console window appears—this indicates that the MARNE mod is active.
| |
|
| |
| == Step 4: Testing and Connecting to the Server ==
| |
| # On a secondary PC open up '''[[Marne Launcher|MarneLauncher.exe]]'''.
| |
| # Click '''START MARNE''' and then '''SERVER BROWSER'''.
| |
| # You should be able to find your server in the list.
| |
| # Join the server and ensure everything works as expected.
| |
|
| |
| == Advanced Settings ==
| |
| If you want to customize your server further, consider modifying the following options in the configuration file:
| |
|
| |
| * '''Enabling/Disabling Specific Weapons:'''
| |
| SyncedBFSettings.EnableShotguns false
| |
| SyncedBFSettings.EnableHandguns true
| |
|
| |
| * '''Enabling/Disabling Minimap/Name Tags:'''
| |
| SyncedBFSettings.EnableMinimap true
| |
| SyncedBFSettings.EnableNameTag true
| |
|
| |
| * '''Adjusting Game Mechanics:'''
| |
| SyncedGame.MaxAllowedLatency 150
| |
| SyncedGame.BulletDamageModifier 1.25
| |
|
| |
| * '''Customizing Server Rules:'''
| |
| SyncedBFSettings.OnlySquadLeaderSpawn false
| |
| SyncedBFSettings.DisableCombatSquadSpawn true
| |
|
| |
|
| |
| There's more server settings you can change to your liking, you can find an overview [[Settings|here]].
| |
| == Troubleshooting ==
| |
| If you encounter issues during setup or while running the server, check the following common problems:
| |
|
| |
| === Port Forwarding ===
| |
| * Ensure that the server port (default: 25200) is correctly forwarded in your router settings.
| |
|
| |
| === Firewall Settings ===
| |
| * Add exceptions for '''bf1.exe''' in your firewall to prevent connection issues.
| |
|
| |
| === Server Crashes ===
| |
| * Review the logs located in the '''Logs''' folder for any errors or warnings.
| |
| * Make sure all software dependencies are up to date.
| |
| * A crash dump is located next to bf1.exe share it with a developer.
