Free Server Manual
The servers named 'Free Server Mode - DM' and 'Free Server Mode - CTF' are available for all. This page explains how you can use them. The DM server has been preconfigured for advanced players (limited ammo, big guns), and the CTF server has been preconfigured for beginners (unlimited ammo, bullet only guns, no teamkills), but you can reconfigure most settings after claiming a server. So it doesn't really matter wich server you pick.
Free server usage
- Use the .gamepark command to list available subcommands:
.gamepark
- Note that the list of available subcommands will be different for unclaimed and claimed servers.
- Use the .rcon command to list available subcommands:
.rcon
- Note that the list of available subcommands will be different for users depending on them being logged in or not and the admin rights granted to them.
- Use the .gamepark claim command to claim an unclaimed server for 60 minutes:
.gamepark claim <username> <password>
- Use the .gamepark renew command to renew the claim on the server for 60 more minutes:
.gamepark renew
- Use the .gamepark save command to save your current settings:
.gamepark save <filename>
- These settings will be saved:
- control_limit cvar
- ctf_loops cvar
- deathmatch cvar
- dmflags cvar
- fraglimit cvar
- hostname cvar
- sv_maplist cvar
- sv_maplistfile cvar
- timelimit cvar
- Current map
- These settings will not be saved:
- password cvar
- spectator_password cvar
- Admin users and their passwords
- IP based kick and mute settings
- Use the .gamepark load command to load saved settings:
.gamepark load <filename>
- Use the .gamepark cancel command when you're done with the server:
.gamepark cancel
- After a cancel command is issued, or if the server expires because it isn't renewed, admin users will be deleted and the server will be returned to the initial settings.

Grant another player .rcon access
You are allowed to share the login details of the admin account that's created when you perform .gamepark claim. If you would like to create additional accounts with limited rights, follow the instructions in this example.
As an existing admin:
].players 192.168.1.1:28910: print Players (fps max = 112; SoFplus 20130322-AP) # CC FPS Ping Score PPM FRG DIE SK FLG REC Name -- -- --- ---- ----- --- --- --- -- --- --- --------------- 0 19 33 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Mike 1 49 14 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Ctrl 2 111 33 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 Duke Nukem ].rcon admin_add 2 theduke OK: Admin added ].rcon admin_grant theduke say,spec,play,swap,red,blue,kick,map,restart,pause,unpause,timelimit,mute,unmute OK
As the new admin:
A new .rcon account has been created for you: theduke You must set the password of your .rcon admin account by typing: .rcon admin_password <new password> ].rcon admin_password SuperSecret OK ].rcon login theduke SuperSecret OK: Login theduke
Note: The default setting for admin_add is to setup the account for a single IP address. If you want to allow a bigger IP address range, you have to specify the range in CIDR notation. Examples for the player in slot 2 (with IP address 192.168.1.1):
.rcon admin_add 2 theduke (single IP address: 192.168.1.1) .rcon admin_add 2/32 theduke (single IP address: 192.168.1.1) .rcon admin_add 2/24 theduke (256 IP addresses: 192.168.1.0 .. 192.168.1.255) .rcon admin_add 2/22 theduke (1024 IP addresses: 192.168.0.0 .. 192.168.3.255) .rcon admin_add 2/16 theduke (65536 IP addresses: 192.168.0.0 .. 192.168.255.255) .rcon admin_add 2/0 theduke (all IP addresses: 0.0.0.0 .. 255.255.255.255)
Login again if your slot changed
You may have to use .rcon login, if your slot changed. This can happen when the map rotates.
