Battlefield Play4Free

There are two admin tools for BP4F.

P4FCC (Play 4 Free Control Center)



This is a purpose built admin tool for BP4F.

The initial release is the "essentials" edition, with all the basic features an admin needs to maintain and manage their server. This makes the basic tool as light and memory efficient as possible. Extra [cpu hungrier] modules will be made for all those extra monitoring tasks (like limiters), as admins request them.

This tool has a BUILT-IN DUMMY SERVER, so anyone can download it and play at being an admin!

---> Install here <---

That page also does some basic compatibility checks (.net version, required componants), but if it fails, install directly here






EAsy Server Panel BP4F



Eliott Ness have rebranded the Ness Manager for BP4F.
Being a reskin, it has a few more features and will have less bugs at it's core, so may be essential for the next few weeks, while P4FCC stabilises.

---> Install here <---

Warning: This tool needed elevated (administrator) permissions. i don't know why



Summary

Both tools will work for any BP4F server, rented by any server provider.
P4FCC is a completely new build, and will be evolve as Admins reqiure.
The Server Panel has an established tool at it's core, so is presumably [initially] more stable.

Most admins will probably find features they like from both tools, so it's worth trying them out and following this thread for further delelopments.

On behalf of P4FCC, I welcome any admins to PM me a steady stream of bugs and suggestions, to help it grow and meet all your Admining desires!

humm, is this real?

yea i reckon it is, already have the EAsy server panel but am having problems with it

I forgot to mention, if you don't know me (because we're just using character names now), I'm Pedro.
I made Autoadmin for BFH.
I made P4FCC.

I will update this post with more news on this as soon as I see it.

It is the same as i3d.net - they use easy server panel.

We used this on PTE for the tests about 4 weeks ago - through eliott-ness

Sorry for the delay.
Original post now updated.

how does this server panel work? He asks for an IP-Adress of a Server, but there are no IP-adresses shown for any Server in BFp4f, how does this work?

Note: I3D.net will only offer support for BFP4FCC (codeveloped by us). We will offer 0 support on EAsy server panel.

It is shown on the website from your server provider.

EAsy Server Panel is the best!
Thanks for this!

Having been testing both tools for a while now, I've got to say I'm very pleased with where they're at. As with any software in this still relatively early stage of development, there may be some hiccups here and there, but I'm sure it won't be too long before these teething problems are fixed and everything is working well.

I'd advise server admins out there to give both of the tools a go and see which one suits you better !

Both tools are linked to, at the top of this thread.

You can PM me any problems you have with BP4FCC, as I am expecting some first day issues.
I will update the thread with both proper support contacts, once they are established.

Pedro
