Battlefield 1942 Game Server User’s Guide
About the Battlefield 1942 Game Server Module
The Battlefield 1942 game server module allows Plesk users to install and manage game servers through their Plesk control panels.
We do not recommend running Battlefield 1942 game servers on Plesk-managed web hosts because game servers consume lots of processor resources and would dramatically decrease web server performance. When choosing the hardware to lease or purchase, make sure it meets the following requirements:
- AMD or Intel CPU (a 1 GHz/128 MB RAM configuration can serve up to 16 players,
- 1.5+ GHz/256 MB RAM – 32 players, 2+ GHz/512 MB RAM – 48 players),
- Linux operating system installed,
- 150 Megabytes of free disk space per one game server installation plus space for additionally installed maps.
Usage Scenario
This usage scenario will illustrate how different users should interact with the module. The Plesk control panel administrator installs the Battlefield 1942 Game Server Module on a Plesk server. A business or individual, who wants to start the game hosting business (further referred to as Game Hoster or operator) leases, rents or purchases a game hosting account or a dedicated server from a provider. Then, the Game Hoster obtains an account on a Plesk-managed server (for this purpose the Plesk administrator creates a Plesk client account with minimal permissions, and assigns the game server module operation privileges to it). After that the Game Hoster logs into the Plesk control panel with operator’s privileges, goes to the game server management section of the control panel and initiates deployment of a game server. Once the game server is installed, the operator configures and starts it. Operators can create, configure, remove, start and stop game servers.
