File location... dod/cfg/server.cfg

This is a place to adjust a heap of cvars. Source server’s share some and some are just for the mod you are using. Your server provider may have a generic one for you.

The basics you have to adjust are at least the server name. Some providers make you use a “Banded” server name, some not. The amount of adjustments are huge and different for each mod. Just google “dods server.cfg” there are heaps.

It depends on taste, one server.cfg is different from the next, there is no “this one is best here… it depends on what you want. See this dods cvar list and pick through it…


Google and learn each cvar is best, the basics for dods on my server if you want to copy it…
