Advanced In-Game Admin and Ban Enforcer - AdKats


Message added by Prophet731,

If you've been banned from a server then you will need to appeal the ban with the owners/community of that server. We do not control any bans done on servers that utilize AdKats as all bans are local to that server.

That honestly sounds like the best way to go about it. Thanks.

Ok, thanks. I was just snooping in the adkats_battlelog_players table and saw the gravatar row. Didn't know how that info was pulled. Seems some are set but most are set to 'null' even if they have a gravatar set on BL. Thought it would be cool to show the gravatar of the latest banned players. Test banned myself since mine was in the database, lol.

I think it only pulls some required info when the player's profile page is visited to avoid unnecessary requests to battlelog, but i'm not sure. Prophet would know more about the details of that process.

It pulls it from the players battlelog when it's fetched from the bfacp. AdKats doesn't do it as it's useless information to the plugin itself. So only way it fetches it is through the bfacp. Since its a nice but needs work GUI. Haha

Is Procon, AdKats, and the Stats plugin also running on your local machine?

Yes? No problem.

No? Well, then, don't do that because it would require placing your local machine onto the internet which will quickly turn into a massive security issue where anyone online will start browsing your computer's hard drive because you are clearly not inclined to properly configure it and safeguard it from attack.

 

If Procon, AdKats, and the Stats plugin are running on a server somewhere on the internet, just rent a SQL server on the internet and use that. Don't try to connect your local computer to the internet in order to save $5 a year.

Yes, i am testing some new things in the experimental section and getting the kinks out. Unfortunately one of the perils of being on the latest test versions is you'll see the occasional bug. Thanks for posting about it right away, more eyes always helps. The issue you saw was indeed fixed by .193/.194

But...I...

 

0.0.0.0 doesn't do anything, it's a non-existent IP address. If anything I would suggest trying 127.0.0.1 if localhost isn't working.

 

Please send me a screenshot of your settings in a PM. If you have everything running locally you don't need to worry about others seeing your values.

Be careful using that type of ip, they are usually dynamic, meaning they can change whenever your computer or router reboots. I would strongly recommend trying 127.0.0.1 which is the ip equivalent of localhost.

I tried localhost and 127.0.0.1 without success, 192.168.x.xxx is the local ip of my machine already fixed (does not change)

Of course Vote Ban BF3 plugin is running for BF3 but has some bugs that (I guess) won't be fixed.

And maybe a usefull votenuke option would also be helpfull for AdKats? The autonuke doesn't work properly on BF3 (or maybe I didn't set up the options nicely_). :-)

Sorry, i will not support the usage of votekick/voteban plugins. I believe they are very easily abused and not to be a replacement for admin oversight.

Thank you!!

This is because you don't have access to create triggers/storedprocedures on your database through godaddy. Contact your support through them and either get them to grant the access for that creation, or have them run the script on your database if they won't give you the access yourself.

But after I found that, I should ask "In-Game Admin - 3.3.1.0" how to fix this problem.

 

Because I do not currently use MySQL database, Maybe I would buy a MySQL to install your plugin.

 

Anyway, My team setting will not change, If you can help repair very much thanks!

Yeah i'll be working on fixing that. It never used team IDs before, only accepted team keys (RU, US, CN, ALL). But that became an issue when people would run team faction scramblers or just set their teams to always be the same faction after DICE allowed it. I'll add a patch shortly for it.

 

On that note though i would suggest setting up what you need to run AdKats. It's basically the upgrade to procon at this point with how much functionality is available.

 

Also if you run a single map server you might be able to take advantage of the auto-nuke script, so you don't need to manually nuke teams. It can figure that all out for you based on ticket loss rates.

Don't think you can disable it. You can delete them but you lose that IP history for the player. How big is your records table? The DB I have has 4,677,047 entries and that's since 2013

  • Our picks

    • Game Server Hosting:

      We're happy to announce that EZRCON will branch out into the game server provider scene. This is a big step for us so please having patience if something doesn't go right in this area. Now, what makes us different compared to other providers? Well, we're going with the idea of having a scaleable server hosting and providing more control in how you set up your server. For example, in Minecraft, you have the ability to control how many CPU cores you wish your server to have access to, how much RAM you want to use, how much disk space you want to use. This type of control can't be offered in a single service package so you're able to configure a custom package the way you want it.

      You can see all the available games here. Currently, we have the following games available.

      Valheim (From $1.50 USD)


      Rust (From $3.20 USD)


      Minecraft (Basic) (From $4.00 USD)


      Call of Duty 4X (From $7.00 USD)


      OpenTTD (From $4.00 USD)


      Squad (From $9.00 USD)


      Insurgency: Sandstorm (From $6.40 USD)


      Changes to US-East:

      Starting in January 2022, we will be moving to a different provider that has better support, better infrastructure, and better connectivity. We've noticed that the connection/routes to this location are not ideal and it's been hard getting support to correct this. Our contract for our two servers ends in March/April respectively. If you currently have servers in this location you will be migrated over to the new provider. We'll have more details when the time comes closer to January. The new location for this change will be based out of Atlanta, GA. If you have any questions/concerns please open a ticket and we'll do our best to answer them.

    • Hello All,

      I wanted to give an update to how EZRCON is doing. As of today we have 56 active customers using the services offered. I'm glad its doing so well and it hasn't been 1 year yet. To those that have services with EZRCON, I hope the service is doing well and if not please let us know so that we can improve it where possible. We've done quite a few changes behind the scenes to improve the performance hopefully. 

      We'll be launching a new location for hosting procon layers in either Los Angeles, USA or Chicago, IL. Still being decided on where the placement should be but these two locations are not set in stone yet. We would like to get feedback on where we should have a new location for hosting the Procon Layers, which you can do by replying to this topic. A poll will be created where people can vote on which location they would like to see.

      We're also looking for some suggestions on what else you would like to see for hosting provider options. So please let us know your thoughts on this matter.

    • Added ability to disable the new API check for player country info


      Updated GeoIP database file


      Removed usage sending stats


      Added EZRCON ad banner



      If you are upgrading then you may need to add these two lines to your existing installation in the file procon.cfg. To enable these options just change False to True.

      procon.private.options.UseGeoIpFileOnly False
      procon.private.options.BlockRssFeedNews False

    • I wanted I let you know that I am starting to build out the foundation for the hosting services that I talked about here. The pricing model I was originally going for wasn't going to be suitable for how I want to build it. So instead I decided to offer each service as it's own product instead of a package deal. In the future, hopefully, I will be able to do this and offer discounts to those that choose it.

      Here is how the pricing is laid out for each service as well as information about each. This is as of 7/12/2020.

      Single MySQL database (up to 30 GB) is $10 USD per month.



      If you go over the 30 GB usage for the database then each additional gigabyte is charged at $0.10 USD each billing cycle. If you're under 30GB you don't need to worry about this.


      Databases are replicated across 3 zones (regions) for redundancy. One (1) on the east coast of the USA, One (1) in Frankfurt, and One (1) in Singapore. Depending on the demand, this would grow to more regions.


      Databases will also be backed up daily and retained for 7 days.




      Procon Layer will be $2 USD per month.


      Each layer will only allow one (1) game server connection. The reason behind this is for performance.


      Each layer will also come with all available plugins installed by default. This is to help facilitate faster deployments and get you up and running quickly.


      Each layer will automatically restart if Procon crashes. 


      Each layer will also automatically restart daily at midnight to make sure it stays in tip-top shape.


      Custom plugins can be installed by submitting a support ticket.




      Battlefield Admin Control Panel (BFACP) will be $5 USD per month


      As I am still working on building version 3 of the software, I will be installing the last version I did. Once I complete version 3 it will automatically be upgraded for you.





      All these services will be managed by me so you don't have to worry about the technical side of things to get up and going.

      If you would like to see how much it would cost for the services, I made a calculator that you can use. It can be found here https://ezrcon.com/calculator.html

    • I have pushed out a new minor release which updates the geodata pull (flags in the playerlisting). This should be way more accurate now. As always, please let me know if any problems show up.
