This page will help you setting up a dedicated Republic Commando server.
==Requirements==
==Requirements==
*Windows operating system           (Linux guide will follow)
* Windows operating system (For Linux: [[Run a server on Linux with UCC]])
*Graphical User Interface - GUI    (No need for that with UCC)
* Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable x86 and x64
*Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable x86 and x64
* Game files need to be present on host system
*Some RAM and CPU power, todays computers are strong enough
* Republic Commando UCC
*Game files need to be present on host system


==Setting up shortcut==
==Setup==
Create a shortcut of SWRepublicCommando.exe, open up its properties and add this line at the end:
* Download [[Republic Commando UCC]] and install it into GameData/System folder
* Create a shortcut for UCC tool and add this parameter on target line:
<pre>
<pre>
-server -ini=System.ini
Engine.ServerCommandlet
</pre>
</pre>
So it should look like this:
* If necessary, forward ports 7777 TCP/UDP and 11138 TCP/UDP on your gateway. (Router)
<pre>
...System\SWRepublicCommando.exe" -server -ini=System.ini
</pre>
The name of the ini file can be variable as long it exists.
