Hello all I decided to switch over to the dedicated server but I'm having trouble opening it after finishing the install. It stops at the loading screen. Any help would be appreciated.

Dedicated server doesn't have an interface, so it's normal that you see only that screen.

What you have to do it's to make sure with autoexec.cfg normally, the webport that server is "listening" ( running on it, default one is 8088 ) and open up the desktop icon local web GUI to manage it, or open your browser manually and look at the file: C:\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta Server\WebGui\index.html#/en/settings ( according to the path where you have installed )

another option is, the server is not starting at all since it's missing some configuration file, so try before start the dedicated server to copy your saved games folder from your "old" traditional server to the Saved Games\DCS.openbeta_server folder and then start again the dedicated server and check WebGUI if it's working.

Thanks about 30mins ago I figured out that it was probably normal as I was able to get a mission/online session running through my account on DCS website.. but this brings up more questions for me. How do you edit and make new missions with map editor? Also how do you add a description to the server? Thanks

You can not use anymore a dedicated server installation to use Mission Editor, to edit a mission you need to have a full client installation.

 

To edit server description, open with Notepad++ ( free software that you can download here ) the file ServerSettings.lua and fill up like this:

ServerSetting.lua_.png

Putting at the end on each line the / character, and only for the last one the ,

The easy way is to type into your full client installation, start a temp server, then copy past the description.

 

( i don't think in the WebGUI there is option to edit description, but normally I don't use it! ;) )

If you mean the ability to type description from WebGUI, probably they will add in the future. It's not a complex task, just missed think on development I suppose ( WebGUI and dedicated server are pretty new for DCS )

 

If you are talking about capability to edit mission, there is now way in my opinion.

Dedicated server is not intended to do it! Trying to implement this feature, it's in opposite direction of development of dedicated server, supposed to be lightweight, not requiring gpu etc... )

 

For editing mission, you have the full client installation, and it's also free, you can install anywhere, create your .miz file, and then upload on your dedicated server
