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.

I always thought it was from the database. I put in a ticket with Prophet and left him a message on the ADK forum. Thanks for the great work you are doing..loving adkats!

Now for the live scoreboard itself for those that don't know. It's a direct connection to your gameserver. I don't interact with the database for the live scoreboard except to get player information when it queries the server. Since it's a direct connectoin to the gameserver you need to open up the port needed for battlefield rcon on your webserver, not that actual gameserver itself.

 

Protocol: TCP

Direction: Outbound

Port: 47200 (thats it for our servers at least, yours may vary)

 

If you done that the scoreboard should work just fine.

I have all ports open so that is not the issue. The server menu on live scoreboard shows that the server is populated but nobody shows up on the live scoreboard. Chat is working correctly. I have deleted the servers and reenabled them just to see if that would work and it has done nothing. Scoreboard remains unpopulated.

 

I haven't made any changes to webadmin in weeks and it had been working. It has to be some problem on my end that I can't figure out or the most recent server update broke the link.

 

Am I the only one having this issue, I don't think so because I have seen others post about the same thing.

 

Thanks for looking into it.

Is it only happening with second assault maps by any chance?

Good question, I know that in fact it was working over the weekend with Lockers and also with 4.0.0.0, not sure if that's coincidence but I can't test this since my server is full with Metro atm...

Thank God, and will echo what Keyser said thanks for the keen eye on this, now if I can figure out my email issue...

 

I get this error when accessing the Web Admin support section and ADK site itself:

 

Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 33554432 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 85 bytes) in /home/adkgamer/public_html/admin/sources/base/ipsMember.php on line 222

 

Also, anyone with info on the F2000?

Download the new update here and only upload the following files and overwrite them.

 

app/third_party/bf4/mapNames.xml

app/third_party/bf4/playModes.xml

 

This will fix the scoreboard issue.

 

Also open up the file app/config/webadmin.php and change the version from 1.4.2 to 1.4.3

 

I forgot to update that.

 

 

EDIT: Topic for this update can now be found here.

Confirmation of command with @yes is required before a report ID is acted on.

 

Who's confirmation? Or another admin or player?

 

So player A does a @report playerB aimbot, how does player A get the credit?

For gmail try port 587, not 465. Let me know if that fixes it.

PlayerA reports PlayerB for ReasonA

AdKats generates 3 digit ID for report. e.g. 825

 

All Online Admins > Report [825]: PlayerA reported PlayerB for ReasonA

 

Options:

 

AdminA acts on report using report ID in any command. kill, kick, ban, etc...

@kill 825

PlayerA > Your report has been acted on. Thank you.

AdminA > You KILLED PlayerB for ReasonA

PlayerA's report gets confirmed, and they are closer to having admin assistant status if you enabled that.

 

AdminA accepts the report but does not take action.

/accept 825

PlayerA > Your report [825] has been accepted. Thank you.

AdminA > Report [825] has been accepted.

PlayerA's report gets confirmed, and they are closer to having admin assistant status if you enabled that.

 

AdminA denies the report as it is incorrect.

/deny 825

PlayerA > Your report [825] has been denied.

AdminA > Report [825] has been denied.

PlayerA's report gets denied, their stats for admin assistant are not affected.

  • 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.
