FAKE RCON

Unfortunately there are still problems to use RCON since the release of CS2, but with the plugin FAKE RCON (NEW: CKRAS BOT & MatchZy) you can mange your CS2 Gameserver, how to do that and how to install FAKE RCON you will learn in this guide.

PROBLEM

In the current server version from CS2, commands like rcon changelevel are not working, so we need a solution here.

We recommend to use CKRAS BOT & MatchZy, alternative is to use the Tool https://github.com/fpaezf/CS2-RCON-Tool-V2/releases

FAKE RCON PLUGIN

The Fake RCON plugin takes care of this problem and allows you to execute the commands on the server again and thus manage the server.

NEW CKRAS BOT

INSTALL PLUGIN

We installed the plugin FAKE RCON on all CKRAS gameservers by default, so you don't have to do anything until you enter your desired password in the rcon.txt. If you notice a problem - please click once switch more games -> delete the game and reinstall, this will fix it!

~~Please click on edit to set the rcon.txt for your future FAKE-RCON password.~~

~~Change the Placeholder YourRconPassword_Here with your password.~~

We have removed the automatic installation, but you can still install FAKE RCON via FTP.

For this we have newly introduced NEW CKRAS BOT

optional via ftp

You can edit the rcon.txt via FTP, the FTP data can be found in the webinterface under Gameserver (top right tab) under FTP Accounts. Then enter the data into an FTP programme, e.g. Filezilla, and use the default port 21.

The file rcon.txt can be found in the following folder:

/cs2/game/bin/linuxsteamrt64

PLEASE RESTART YOUR SERVER AFTER YOU HAVE SAVED YOUR FAKE RCON PASSWORD! NEW CKRAS BOT
