Eve of Destruction is cool, I'll see if it's possible to install that one as well..

We could rotate between different mods every 3-4 days (or so)..

Others that would be good are "Forgotten Hope" for all out action and, of course, the one that caught my fancy, "Battlefield 1918".

1918 had some promise but from what i have heard the haven't got it quite right yet....is probably to stick to the more well known ones

FINALLY UP AND RUNNING NOW!!!

IP: 64.237.63.134
Name: Milforum.com -= BF1942 =-

No lag from Norway, so it looks like it's an ok server.

I've only installed BF1942 without any mods, so it's only running on the classic maps now.
I've set it in Coop mode for now, so you can play against bots in there.
Mods (DC, DC extended, Silent heroes etc..) will be installed later this week.

40 slots, but 8 slots are reserved for forum members, PM me for the password..

I'm learning how to use the gameserver now, so it may not be 100% optimized yet.
Tips from others who have operated a BF1942 server before is appreciated.

Change of plans..

I've installed Silent Heroes (Norway/Sweden ), so I'm testing those maps now..

Still in coop mode, so you can play against bots for now.

Download the Silent Heroes mod here, if you don't have it:

Enjoy..

Yes.
When maps from those mods are used on the server, you'll need to have them installed on your computer.

But all of them are free and easy to download

I've switched back to "normal" BF1942 maps now, going to install desert combat (+ extended) later tonight.
All add the download links for those mods here then.

Looks cool.

I'll see if it's possible to install the server files when it's released..
