Call of Duty: Black Ops – IGN Rewind Theater

Call of Duty Black Ops

A new serie of my all time most favourite game Call of Duty is on the way!

Treyarch has recently announced the game oficially and released a debut teaser trailer on April 29th.

The trailer, on the other hand, is opening new doors for more questions and rumors. The editors of www.ign.com prepared a nice breakdown of the video trying to find answers about what we see in the trailer and what we might expect to see in the game.

How to Set up BigBrotherBot B3 on Debian Linux

BigBrotherBotThere’s no doubt that BigBrotherBot (B3) is the best server administration tool for online FPS games. Currently supported games are Call of Duty series (except MW2 due to the lack of dedicated servers), Urban terror, World of Padman, Enemy Territory, Smokin’ Guns and Battle Field Bad Company 2. You can also find many useful B3 plugins such as Poweradmin, Echelon, XLRstats etc. If you don’t know yet what B3 is about, I recommend checking B3 website at www.bigbortherbot.com

In this howto, I will try to cover a step by step “core installation” of BigBrotherBot B3 on a Debian Linux. For alternative installation methods you can check B3 documentation.

I have written and tested this howto with a fresh install of Debian Lenny on WMware.

Assumptions

This howto assumes that you own a dedicated server which you have root access via ssh. The game, MySQL database and B3 run on the same box. (For other installation scenarios you can refer to B3 forums)

BigBrotherBotThe BigBrotherBot dev team is proud to announce the release of B3 1.3. This release brings a lot of improvement to the bot including :

B3 core :

  • The status plugin can now save the status file over FTP
  • Large updates to ftpytail plugin (support for reading game log file over FTP)
  • AUTODOC which will generate a webpage with all the commands you and your users can use ingame
  • A new setup wizard which helps you build your b3.xml (b3_run.py –setup)

BattleField Bad Company 2 support:

  • Beta release of the BF:BC2 parser. (Note that this is still a work in progress and it has been included in this B3 release as a beta. Since Dice is updating servercode frequently, you may expect similar B3 updates for this parser.)
  • The BF:BC2 parser does not require any server access, you can run this like any other BC2 admin tool.

Installing LAMP Server on Debian/Ubuntu Linux

LAMP is an acronym for Linux + Apache + MySQL + PHP.

Debian LogoIn this tutorial I will describe a step-by-step installation of a LAMP server on a Debian or Ubuntu Linux. If you’re accessing your server via ssh remotely from a Windows machine, I recommend using putty.  It’s pretty easy to set things up thanks to Debian’s apt-get command.

Connect to your Debian / Ubuntu via ssh using putty and get super user rights.

$ su
password:

Type your root password when prompted. Now we have administrator rights to install or remove packages.

In Debian based systems all packages that are  installed, not installed and available for installation are kept in a private database. The apt-get program uses this database. So you must always update this database prior to installing a new package.
