Server

Fesl Login Server (GameSpy Emulator)

NOTE: To simplify the work, use the AMP package, for example, XAMPP.

1. Install OpenSSL (>= 1.0.0). Latest version you can download here.

UPD (07.01.2020). For Windows download from here. I can 100% guarantee that it works with Win32 OpenSSL v1.0.2u. More late versions doesn't work (TODO: recheck again).

2. Install MySQL server (latest version here) .
3. Import database bf2142.sql to MYSQL server.
4. Copy to your fesl folder libmySQL.dll from MySQL folder

UPD (07.01.2020). New versions of XAMPP don't contain C Connector, you can download it manually from here

5. Edit _launch.bat. Change dbuser, dbpass, dbname.

NOTE: MySQL should work only on localhost! Don't change dbhost from 127.0.0.1!

6.Edit hosts.ics ("С:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts.ics") and add next line (сhange your.external.ip to your server's external ip):

your.external.ip  stella.master.gamespy.com 

7.Start _launch.bat

NOTE: You can change License Agreement in license.txt, but however, due to the fact that BF2142 does not know a line break, the text will be like a one-liner.

WebServer

NOTE: Stats requires PHP >= 5.3.8 UPD (07.01.2020). Not working on PHP >= 7.0. I can 100% guarantee that it works on PHP 5.4.22. I advise you to use XAMPP 1.8.2

1. Unzip folder "web" to your localhost folder (WARNING: Stats system won't work at another location!)
2. Open ./include/_ccconfig.php and change $db_host, $db_name, $db_user, $db_pass to yours, which you installed in Fesl Login (step 4)
3. Open your database in MySQL (phpmyadmin/ or another utility), open table "servers" and add two new entries (local and external IP) and key "authorised" 1.
4. Open your PHP config file (php.ini) and change

error_reporting = E_NONE
display_errors = Off

GameServer

1. Download BF2142 serverfiles
2. Extract "python" folder to the main folder with server. Agree with overwriting.
3. UPD (07.01.2020). Edit hosts.ics ("С:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts.ics") and add next line (сhange your.external.ip to your webserver's external ip):

your.external.ip  stella.prod.gamespy.com
