Author Topic: Blockland dedicated server on linux?  (Read 2234 times)

Does anyone know how I could run a Blockland dedicated server on a linux server (ubuntu 12.04 server) without having to use gui?

This would be great as I already use this for webhosting, email and a few other games.

Wine.

Post back here after you've installed it.


I have installed unity (GUI) and WINE and Blockland via WINE however when I click on the dedicated server on the desktop the launcher comes up and goes into standard Blockland. How can I have the dedicated server start like my LAMP server where it starts when the server boots up before anybody logs on?

Make this text file and save it as dedicated.bat :

start [blocklanddir]\BlocklandLauncher.exe -dedicated -map custom -port 28000
Replace [blocklanddir] with the path of where BlocklandLauncher.exe is.

start env WINEPREFIX="/home/daniel/.wine" wine C:\\Program\ Files\ \(x86\)\\Blockland\\BlocklandLauncher.exe -dedicated -map custom -port 28000

the file looks like this I have saved it as dedicated.bat when I double click on it, the text editor gedit opens and when I right click and tell it to run with WINE it will open and close in about a second and gives me this...

you're not supposed to save it as a .bat lol
run the command through terminal or save it as a .desktop launcher

Save it as dedicated.sh

Save it as dedicated.sh
Then you need #!/bin/bash at the beginning, just try it through the terminal first.
