Prerequisites

You MUST have 2 TMNF+ accounts. One runs the server, and the other plays the game.

The XASECO server controller relies on MySQL (v9+ preferred) to be running.

Quick Start

I can't, in good faith, recommend ANYONE to run this server, even if you know what you're doing.

Dedicated Config

If you really want to, you must edit the dedicated_cfg file.

• Add your own name and password for the server
• Edit authorization levels to your desire
• Input account info for server account
• Add server name and description

Server Config

To play custom tracks, you must first add them to TMServer/GameData/Tracks/Challenges/Downloaded/ directory.

To set custom server rules, including game mode and time limit, you must add your own server configuration file in the TMServer/GameData/Tracks/MatchSettings/ directory. The format for the server config is as follows:

<playlist>
  <gameinfos>
    <game_mode>XXX</game_mode>
    ...
  </gameinfos>

  # Define a track for the server playlist
  <challenge>
    <file>$FILEPATH</file>
  </challenge>
  ...
</playlist>   

Starting the server

I have included a handy startup script that runs the server with the specified custom match settings. If you want to run this server on your own machine, you will have to edit start_hunt_server.bat to point to the path where TMServer is located. Additionally, if you created a custom server ruleset, you must edit the path for the /game_settings= parameter on line 13.

Important notes:

• You need 2 TMNF+ accounts: 1 to run the server, and 1 to play on.
• You need a TM validation key to run the server
