I'm using CentOS 5 (64 bit I think, cause I have 8 gigs of ram). Anyway, I was told 64 bit would work with gamecreate (a friend of mine uses it with 64 bit ubuntu server).

I can't get this installed for the life of me. Is there any guide for installing? I've tried chmodding, everything....

I'm new to this and need step by step instructions...thanks

So I got it installed, and added the host...but it doesn't wanna stay online? I know the server itself is online as I'm on SSH right now, but it keeps going offline when I try and install a game. The game starts to install, the files are there, but it keeps going offline. WTF.

Can you please paste the GameCreate log output into here so we can get a better idea of what's happening.

also, how do I stop the service for gamecreate?

I just need to know the name of the service so I can stop it in ssh:) thanks

UPDATE: Nothing seems to happen until I try and install a game.

Steve · Mammoth

The log will be in the default GameCreate directory.
/home/gamecreate/

Not in there. Keep in mind i installed it on my desktop, and its not in the gamecreate folder. Whats the file called?

Steve · Mammoth

Go to the gamecreate folder you installed the client to, and look for the file gamecreate.log

If there are no log files, you may have to edit the ini file to enable logging to a file.

Yea theres no logs. What do I put in the ini file??

Steve · Mammoth

Change the line

log-file []
to
log-file gamecreate.log

in the gamecreate.ini

Start the GC client again.
