Follow this video to make your own dedicated crysis2 server.
Step 1. Download this package. http://www.gamesas.com/support
Download that crysis2 community dedicated server package


So guys here is what you have to do.

1.download that package and copy Crysis2DedicatedServer.exe to the bin32 directory
o Dedicated.cfg to the root directory
o Crysis2_CommunityServer_Documentation.pdf to the support directory inside Crysis 2.

2.Create a seperate gamesas account using a different email ID.You cannot use the same account details for the dedicated server and your client at the same time - you MUST create a separate account to use both concurrently.just create an account from crysis2 login page.REMEMBER TO USE A DIFFERENT EMAIL ID.


3.After you have created a new account just login with that account just once in crysis2 MP.Then edit dedicated.cfg using notepad and type your ID and password there.Save it then again change the extension to .cfg.And you are done.


4.NOw comes that level rotation.xml file.As you can see you have to create that file.I have added the level rotation.xml file which i am using.Just download and copy paste it in crysis2 root folder where dedicated.cfg is located.And before you use it you have to edit that file and add your server name and password.When you open the txt file you will see this lines at the top.

Like you can see my server name is subho's test server you have to change it to something else and add you password in that password field.That it you are done.now you have to save the file as LevelRotation.Xml.


5.Now after copy pasting both dedicated.cfg and level rotation.xml in you crysis 2 root directory just make a shorcut of dedicatedserver.exe to your desktop.Now open that file.A command promp like window will pop up.Allow it to do its stuff.just allow it to run in background and start crysis2.in server browser type your server and u will hopefully get ur server.

Ask me if you need any help.You can tweak more like enable R.con for the server.i will tell you those if u want.those are complicated.

Thanks for info about that we have dedicated server utility. I don't even knew that it's in support downloads

don't work at all, video etc. what a hell get levelrotation.xml? the instruction is very poor. sorry

27 minute video? This needs to be revised to 5 minutes TOPS... Geez

What we need is simplistic instructions written step by step in this thread. Copy and paste into files we have or need.. Better yet, a GUI interface...

well.. wat can u expect from a person new to online gaming who gives instructions? lol

If you think you are some old grumpy grandpa of online gaming who only played GTA4,why don't you give them the instruction.Wait i forgot you are way to dumb to give any instruction.

Becoz of some reason i cant upload that file. So i am copy pasting all the data here.This is the level rotation.xml file

Everything is not in the video? How about which ports to open? Nontheless, very helpfull video.

Also, can the client and the server run on the same PC?

Why am I forced to connect to a third party server to use my dedicated server? Where is the LAN function? Let's say hypothetically I'm in a room way out in the country with no phone lines or internet and I want to connect all 16 copies of Crysis 2 that I purchased retail so all my friends and family can play because have no other entertainment out here.

WHERE IS THE F***ING LAN FEATURE?

Client and server can run on same pc.64200 is the default port.

well AFAIK lan party is not supported in crysis2.So no joy in that area.

I think I might have some issue with my router and windows 7 64bit, tried last night but no joy! I agree LAN would have been better this way if I created a map I would have very few issues running it and/or testing it. THANK YOU CONSOLES for making Crytek wanna dev for your KAK platform... you rock, NOT!

which part is giving you trouble?Are you getting some error.If your login detail is incorrect then dedicated server.exe will crash everytime you start.Did you created a new gamesas.com account using the ingame new account method.Mine is working perfectly and i have used to this same method.Also win7.
