My friend has his server pw locked for me to try debug mode on but i cant spawn kits or the vehicles. when i type rcon login it says failed. Is there a way to get around this rcon login step or does he need to add me into a python or server setting file?

Thanks I was able to do it on local server but not online even with debug mode on all i could do was spawn prbot but not extra vehicles or kits.

Setting up Remote server access:
This step is only needed if you want people other than the host on the server to be able to access the commands. If you are hosting your own local game by yourself then skip to [Logging in : Step 3]

1. Navitgate to the following directory:
Program Files/EA GAMES/Battlefield 2/Admin

2. Open the file 'default.py' in notepad.

3. Find this line:

Code:

options = {
'port': '4711',
'password': none,

Change the word 'none' to what you want as your new password. For example I chose 'vapoman' as my password so my file looks like this:

Code:

options = {
'port': '4711',
'password': vapoman,

4. Save and close notepad.


Logging in:

1. Start a local server.
Once spawned in ingame press the ~ key to bring up the console or alternatively use chat (j,k,l keys).

2. (If you are the host skip to step 3).
In type in (use the password that you set up earlier):
Code:

rcon login your_password

For example my password would be:
Code:

rcon login vapoman

Press enter, if you did the code wrong or you entered the wrong password it will come up with an error. If you entered it correctly no message should come up.

3. Type in:
Code:

rcon debug

A message should appear saying '*Debug Enabled*'
Enabling debug mode is important as most commands cant be done unless debug is enabled.


is this relevant?

go to the merk server website, they had it set-up so that anyone who joined could spawn things, they'll be able to help you.
