Create Basic Server (Windows)

Note: This guide is intended for dedicated servers, not servers started from the ingame menu!

Requirements

• Windows operating system (For Linux: Run Server on Linux)
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable x86 and x64
• Game files need to be present on host system
• Republic Commando UCC

Setup

• Download Republic Commando UCC and install it into GameData/System folder
• Create a shortcut for UCC.exe and add this parameter on target line: Engine.ServerCommandlet
• It should like below (absolute paths may be different depending on installation location):

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Star Wars Republic Commando\GameData\System\UCC.exe" Engine.ServerCommandlet

• Forward the server connect port (default 7777) for TCP and UDP in your router/firewall
• Optionally, forward the gamespy master server port 11138 for TCP and UDP if you want to see your server on the list

Configure System\System.ini

Open up GameData\System\System.ini file with notepad. (Notepad++ recommended)
