CW Game Panel can do many things in terms of basic server administration. From here, you can start and stop your server, manage your game files over the web, change startup configuration options, and check up on the current server's status.

Contents

Logging In

Your CWGamepanel control panel can be accessed here: http://gamepanel.cyberwurx.com/ Alternatively, you can use: http://cwgamepanel.cyberwurx.com/

After following that link, you will see the login screen. You will need to enter the email address that you signed up with, and your password.

  • Note: This is not your RCON password

You should have a screen that looks similar to this: Image:GS-Login.png After you enter your login credentials, simply click login

Welcome to the Panel!

After you login, you will be taken to the basic gameserver administration panel. We will orient you through the different areas now.

My Servers

Here you can see your server's current status. There will be different icons next to your servers indicating the server's current status. Image:GS-Main-page.png

In our example, our server has the X icon, meaning it is down.

Name

This is the name of the server. This also can be changed to something desirable such as, "Clan Meh 24/7 de_dust2". If you would like to change the name of the server, please submit a ticket requesting that server's name to be changed. Make sure you include the IP address for the server.

  • Changing the server name does not affect the current server's process.
  • This also does not change the server's hostname. Be aware that this name is only for you to see inside the panel.

Game

This is the current game that is hosted with your account.

IP Address

The IP and port of the server. This is the public IP address that your players will connect to.

Status

In the unfortunate event that your server may be suspended, the current status will be listed here.

Gear

This brings us to our next section covering the start-up options for your server.

Server Details

If you click on the Image:GS-Gear.png icon, the gamepanel will take you to the Server Details page. Use this page to change start-up options such as your starting map, config files, and so on... Image:GS-Server-Details.png

Start the Server!

You can start/stop/restart the server from this page. If you want, go ahead and click Start. You will see the following message when the server is started up.

Congratulations! Your server is on its way up! Since our servers will update automatically upon restart, the server may be downloading a new update. Sometimes the update servers are slower than normal and it may take up to 30 minutes to update a server at any given time.

Server Information

This is a brief rundown of information covered in the last page.

Server Configuration

Because each game is different, your server may have a different startup inputs. We will cover this more in each game's section.
