Setting Up A Dedicated Server


First what version of Halo are you playing in?

If it is 1.04 then you need these files!
Halo Dedicated Server 1.02
Dedicated Server MAP Files
The Brutal Bizkit Server Files v1.04

If it is 1.08 then you need these files!
Halo Dedicated Server 1.02
Dedicated Server MAP Files
The Brutal Bizkit Server Files v1.08

Install Halo Dedicated Server 1.02 and Dedicated Server MAP Files!
Halo Dedicated Server 1.02 will install in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Server\"!
Install Dedicated Server MAP Files in the same path!

Extract The Brutal Bizkit Server Files v1.04 or The Brutal Bizkit Server Files v1.08 what ever version your playing in!

In the file you extracted "\Halo Server\" copy the files "haloed.exe" and "init.txt" and put them in "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Halo Server\"!

In the file you extracted copy the file "savegames" put this file in "\My Documents\My Games\Halo\"!

In the file you extracted copy the file "haloed.bat" put this on your desktop!

If you have a router you will need to forwarded port 2302! (Fyi port 2302 is default for halo servers!)
Lookup port forwarding for your router!

Install a firewall and block udp remote port 29910!
Firewall's Some Server Operators I know use!
Kaspersky
Kerio 32bit systems
Kerio 64bit systems
Tiny Firewall
Comodo Firewall Version 3.0 32bit systems
Comodo Firewall Version 3.0 64bit systems

Dubble click the haloed.bat file and your server should be running!
