Hello, I wonder if it's possible to create a dedicated Linux server for SWBF2, and if so, how.
I skimmed through the Download section but as far as I understand those are all client modifications .exe for hosting a SWBFSpy server, which I guess those are made specifically for Windows desktop for a client hosting. I may be wrong anyway :shrug:
I don't know for sure, but I'd try running it on wine. I have a flavor of Linux on my laptop, I might try it out myself tomorrow.
What Linux flavor are you running?
Led might be able to give you some info,
the nfo servers we use are all kinds of different OSes, including Unix types.
SWBF1 works OK with WINE, but SWBF2 is a little more trouble. Search the forum though, I believe someone has gotten it to work :cheers:

It works just as in SWBF1. If u want to use the Server Manager/Remote Manager u just gotta add the requirements to get it to work ;)

I seem to remember some issue with clients that could not connect...

I think that the only problem it had was that when loading the map rotation it took more than the usual, but nothing else... anyways I will try to host a server on a VM with Ubuntu Server and see if it has any other issue.
