Installation

For Players

 
 

Automatic

Installation

The easiest way a player can download the mod, is to do so automatically from any server running the MDK mod.
If the player is new to the mod, they will have to enable their downloads via the menu interface.
If a connecting player already has a prior instance of the mod, this setting is not needed.
Note: In the event the player receives an Update Error message, they will also then need to use this setting.

 

1.) Click Network Settings

 

2.) Click on the setting Allow Download, changing it from No to Yes

This can also be done in the console with the command cl_allowdownload "1"

 

 

3.) Connect to an MDK mod server

You will begin downloading the updater file which initializes the mod installation.

 

During the updating process, the game will refresh several times. If successful, you will see a new loading screen appear. This screen displays the servers mod version along with your client version.

   

 

In the event the update fails, this could be due to several reasons. A common reason has to do with a write access error. This can usually be resolved by re-launching the game. If the error continues, you will need to open the games MDK directory and delete the file sof2mp_uix86.dll and try again 


Manual

Installation

Note: Some web browsers may attempt to save .pk3 files in .zip format. If this occurs, simply rename the file extension to .pk3 after the file has been downloaded.

 

1.) Download the latest updater file mdk_mod_X_xxx_u1.pk3 (Right click and Save Target As if the browser tries to read the file, Save As with a .pk3 extension)

The updater file will have the previous version of the mod in the file name where xxx is.

For example on version 2.1 the updater will be named 2.0 and so forth.

This will basically provide the 2.1 mod to any player with version 2.0 and prior in addition to new clients without the mod.

 

2.) Place the file inside of your MDK directory <SoF2 Directory>/MDK.

If the folder does not exist you can simply create one.

 

If installed in the Program Files / (x86) directory, you will be prompted on every action taken.

You will need to have admin to perform changes within the folder.

 

If you do not have admin or prefer to have no restrictions, you can copy the game directory to any location other than the Program Files directory as this folder is write protected in any version of Windows Vista and up.

 

3.) Launch the game and connect to an MDK server


Advanced

Installation

This is only recommended for experienced users as installing the mod incorrectly could result in the mod not functioning properly.

1.) Download the raw mod file directly mdk_mod_X_xxx.pk3

2.) Place the file inside of your <SoF2 Directory>/<MDK> folder

3.) Launch the game and connect to an MDK server


Troubleshooting

Installation

For users installed in the Program Files directory that are on Windows Vista and above, there are restrictions set by Windows. These restrictions make the directory read only by default. Instead of allowing applications to directly write and modify files, they are now routed to an alternate folder called VirtualStore. This can make your SoF2 experience a bit more difficult as files normally written in the game directory such as configs or downloads will be routed here. With regards to the MDK mod, if the manual method above was followed and it is not loading correctly this is usually the cause.

Before beginning, it is important to navigate to your <Program Files>/<SoF2 Directory> and delete the MDK folder. This will ensure there are no conflicts when following the steps below.

1.)  Navigate to the following folder location, be sure to replace the <username> with the username that your computer is logged into.

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore

 

2.) Locate your SoF2 installation directory. In this example, it is located at the following location

C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files (x86)\Soldier of Fortune II - Double Helix

 

3.) Copy the updater file mdk_mod_X_xxx_u1.pk3 into the MDK folder (Right click and Save Target As if the browser tries to read the file, Save As with a .pk3 extension)

 

4.) Launch the game and connect to an MDK server


Troubleshooting

Authentication

Some users who have the mod installed may experience issues regarding "Unverified Client". If this occurs you may need to synchronize your date/time to reflect the most accurate data.

The below example is demonstrated in Windows 10

1.) Right click on the date/time located on the bottom right of your Windows taskbar and select Adjust date/time at the top

 

2.) Under "Synchronize your clock", click on "Sync now"

If synchronized successfully, your "Last successful time synchronization" should reflect the current time.

 

If you encounter an error while synching, please verify that your computers date is correct.


Installation

For Server Admins

 

 


Note: If setting up a local server (Non dedicated), substitute the FTP references for your <SoF2 Directory>

Important: Be sure to include only the updater PK3 file (post fixed _u) inside of your servers MDK folder if you plan on keeping sv_allowDownload enabled.

No other PK3's should be in this folder.

1.) Download the server files mdk_mod_X_xxx_server.zip (Right click and Save Target As if the browser tries to read the file, Save As with a .pk3 extension)

 

2.) Extract the files from the archive and place the contents into your servers base and MDK folders via an FTP program.

CoffeeCup Free FTP is used in this example.

 

 

3.) You will need to make sure the following is declared in your servers command line or batch file

+set fs_game MDK

+exec startup.cfg

Here is an example of a complete command line string

+set rconpassword mypassword +set fs_game MDK dedicated 2 +set net_port 20100 +exec startup.cfg

If you are uncertain about how to apply changes to the command line, you may need to open a support ticket with your servers host to make the necessary changes.

 

4.) Start your server

If done correctly you will notice a new server listed in the browser name New MDK Mod Server.

This server should automatically be populated with bots.

 

5.) Connect to your server

When in-game, type the following command into either the chat or console

\addme

This will add you as the very first sysop (System Operator) and prevent others from using this command.

This command can only be used once.

 

Important: The server must not run in pure mode, "sv_pure" should be set to 0.


Features

Voice Chat

 
 

Voice Chat is a function that connects a player to a TeamSpeak 3 server.

This can be located in the MDK menu under the information icon (light bulb) as shown below.

Once selected, it will connect the player directly to the configured voice server.


Features

Minimizer

 
 

Minimizer is a function that minimizes the game window. When minimized the player will be able to interact with their desktop like usual.

This option is available in the MDK menu under "Binds" as shown below.

 

Once a key is assigned to this function, the player can activate it at any time during the game by pressing the assigned key.

To return to the game, simply select the SoF2 icon from the taskbar.


Features

Widescreen

  
 

The old display menu is replaced with an improved version. This improved version is located within the MDK X button in the main menu.

Once in the MDK menu, navigate to the settings button. There is a drop down option titled "Display Mode", when clicked it will display all of the resolutions currently supported by your monitor. Resolutions with the postfix (Wide) are 16:9 aspect ratio, the rest of the resolutions can either be 4:3 or extra wide. When an option is selected, be sure to click on the check box that is located to the left side of the option. This will apply the desired resolution and reload the game.

Player Customization

Profile

  
 

Your profile can be accessed by clicking on the MDK X button in the main menu. Within the profile, you can customize several options beginning from Left to Right.

1.) Country Flag

Displayed on several menus within game

2.) Avatar

This can be anything from the SoF2 identity, Facebook profile picture, or MDK website avatar. In order to use Facebook or MDK avatars, the option "User Avatars" must be enabled. Disabling this option will only display the SoF2 identity avatar.

Whenever updating a custom avatar, be sure to check if the image displayed reflects the most recent avatar you have online. If this differs, simply click on the "Refresh" icon located below the avatar preview "Is this recent?" Selecting this option will prompt you with two choices, wait for the avatar to update after a map change or update immediately.

3.) Victory Music

This is music that is played during the intermission if you are ranked first during the match. This option is only available if a server has these sounds configured. The option contains 3 buttons, a "Previous", "Play", and "Next" option. These are used to cycle through the available music clips or re-play the music.

Note: Depending on the amount of action going on in the server at the time, you may need to find a quiet spot to preview the music as too many other sounds can drown it out.

4.) Crosshair

You can select the crosshair design from a range provided by the server. There is a black preview box along with 4 sliders beneath that allow you to customize the color and visibility. 


Player Customization

Name

 
 

The identity screen has a built in name editor. This is one of the first things you will notice when selecting a player identity. The color depiction for each character is 100% accurate and true to the game engine.

A player has access to the extended ASCII character set without the need of manually inserting each character and with the benefit of seeing what each character looks like. This can lead to many customizable options on demand when creating names.


Player Customization

Scoreboard

 
 

Interface

Player Customization

The scoreboard is available in two different styles. The default style is the modern scoreboard, this includes the intermission stats. The second option available is the classic scoreboard, this also includes the intermission stats. This setting can be found in the MDK menu under settings.

Server Setup

Customization

 
 

Sounds

Server Setup

To setup new sounds or modify the existing sound commands, locate the "sounds.cfg" located in the servers MDK folder. When opened, all currently configured sounds will be displayed starting from the announcement notifications followed by the voice command sounds.

 

These sounds are conveniently provided directly to players when the "sounds" command is entered into the console or the bind for available sounds is executed as shown below.

 

There are many sounds and features within the config that can be configured to your liking. It is advised to keep the standard voice commands as is to avoid confusion with players when visiting other servers. Instead, it is recommended to add additional sounds below the line titled "Additional voice commands".

When saving a soundpack for distribution to your players, the file "sounds.cfg" should not be included with the pk3 file as it is not needed an may cause confusion. Soundpacks can contain many sounds, even sounds that are in excess as they can be added later for use simply by modifying the "sounds.cfg". This eliminates the need for having to provide several soundpacks to add sounds if they are already available to you.


Music

Server Setup

A music queue is music that plays after a kill spree. This is music that is also available as victory music. This feature is disabled by default. To configure music you must do the following.

1.) Create a soundpack that contains the music that will be available.

The soundpack by default must be in the following folder structure


(Soundpack.pk3) -- File -- Can have any name

sound2 -- Folder
queues -- Sub folder inside of sound2
sissy  -- Sub folder inside of queues​

 

This folder structure can be configured with the following CVARS

sv_queueFolder "sound2/queues" -- Folder that contains standard queue/victory music

sv_queueFolder2 "sound2/queues/sissy" -- Folder that contains sissy queue/victory music

Once the folders are created you will need to add the music files.

Music files must be named numerical and in sequence.

It is recommended to have each music file be no longer than 10 seconds in length however this value can be larger or smaller.


sound2 -- Folder
queues -- Sub folder inside of sound2
1.mp3
2.mp3
3.mp3
4.mp3
5.mp3
sissy -- Sub folder inside of queues
1.mp3
2.mp3
3.mp3

 

Once the sound pack is completed you will need to tell the server how many sounds you would like for it to have available.

To do this use the following CVARS

sv_victoryMusic "5" -- The available amount of regular music clips.

sv_victoryMusic2 "3" -- The available amount of sissy music clips.

 

Below is an example of this structure as provided by the mdk_sounds_1.pk3


Server Setup

Downloads

  
 

The original download system provided by SoF2 has been replaced with a new and improved system. This new functionality allows users to download files at high speeds. To enable this functionality, the server operator will need to configure a URL for maps and for pk3 mod files. It is recommended that the setting "sv_allowDownload" "1" be enabled in order to provide the mod to new users.

1.) Locate and open the "startup.cfg" file located in the servers base folder.

2.) Search for the downloading section and provide a web URL for "sv_mapsURL" and "sv_paksURL"

3.) You will need to provide a list of space delimited pk3 file names for the "sv_paksRef" CVAR. This should exclude maps and typically can contain sound packs, skins and other mods.

An example for this would be

seta sv_paksRef "mysoundpack myweaponskins mymenutheme"

 

4.) Reboot the server or execute the "startup.cfg" file either via rcon "rcon exec startup.cfg" or in-game via the console with "adm rcon exec startup.cfg"

Note: The files referenced by "sv_paksRef" and the maps located in the servers mapcycle must be available on the web server for the downloads to work. The game servers MDK folder should not have any pk3 file with the exception of mdk_mod_X_xxx_u1.pk3, this file must also be located on the web server referenced by "sv_paksURL"
