player hosted servers?????

[Nerd.Gamer.Dave]

We all know this game is abandoned. It never works more than a day at a time for over a year now.

So it there a way to host a game on our own and just invite friends?

[Nerd.Gamer.Dave]

Back to the original point of this post: I am asking if someone can point me in the right direction to the game .ini file or whatever I need to tweak to set up a PC to host this game myself.

I am not looking for a fix to access the busted and mostly non-functional Gun Media servers. I will host it myself.

If someone can help with this, I would appreciate it

Camp blood does allow you to bypass the Database error by freezing it since the database is working,its just slow
do this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WRazaCMTvHA&t=2s

Doesn't work. Just tried it repeatedly.

I've been playing camp blood like this for a month now and it always works,sometimes it takes a few tries tho

I'm not too tech savy but in order to accomplish this wouldn't you still need access to the data base? If it's corrupted,broken whatever the case is, your efforts would be in vane.There is still got to be away to save peoples progress and from what I understand your perks,badges,xp,cp,achievements are all in the data base .No new players are going to want to play if they can't progress us old players couldn't care less. I've been 150 since Oct of 2017. You'd probably need to speak to Gun to have access to the data base maybe you could stop this from happening don't know how tech savy you are.,

can you link me or DM me the link to install camp blood? The 3 discord groups I find for F13 don't have it.

In generic terms, the database is basically just a spreadsheet of all your progress, like perk names, xp, level, etc. etc. Any admin/dev could be able to manipulate that data to level up, level down, and change characters.

My overall idea is to set up a dedicated server like any other game, then a database of it's own. Yes it would reset all progress people had, but that data is also able to be manipulated to bring players (i.e me and my friends that want to play this game together) to whatever values we see fit.

With no support from Gun anymore, I am of the very strong opinion, it's time to hand over the game to mod makers, modders, and let us host our own games with our own friends. If people could actually log in, play with friends, and not have all the busted/hacked issues, the game would remain popular, active and thrive

You're just another hacker, you want to do what the hackers already did and held the game hostage for 2 years. Blocked.

One HUGE problem there is NO WAY IN HELL they would hand the game over EVER!!! It's a Intellectual property under a licensing agreement. It's NEVER going to happen. Camp Blood and other derivatives that MAY be out there are TOTALLY ILLEGAL and in violation of copyright agreements.They have already received cease and desist orders in the past. I'm surprised they haven't been shut down completely even though the aren't charging any $ to download or play.

[76561199088796308]

How is my account fake?Not that it really matters,I have like 5 accounts on Steam. Regardless F13 the game is a intellectual property Gun just has a licensing agreement with Horror Inc. to use their property and now they don't 100% own all the content within the game Victor now has claim to SOME of it's elements,hence why the game and the entire F13 franchise is still in limbo.Gun is NOT going to hand anything over they don't OWN the game Horror inc does.

what i think we really need here is the ability to host our own "database" sooner or later i feel this will be dumped too and the game will not function with it. it really makes no difference if everyone starts level 150 with all the best perks, but without the ability to bypass the last step and go 100% pier to pier is to bypass that database all together, put in an ip/dns name for your database share it with your friends, save your progress locally etc. the quickplay has rotted beyond existence now. we hardcore fans need to be able to host our own.

now someone get to cracking, might not be that hard to change the built in dns/ip server database, the creating one to mimic the original, maybe moreso.

I was worried about this exact issue from the start of the fall, some may not realize it but the game is not really independent of the devs equipment, that stupid "database" that made sure people didnt just open their game file and change level=0 to level=150 or ehh even 999 will break the entire game down to a single player experience only sooner or later. its not like doom from the 90s where i could pop a handful of 486 computers on my network and just link them offline with no ISP.

if it were a 100% true "pier to pier" you would be able to run a game with people on the same network with no internet during a hurricane, power out and nothing but a generator keeping your PC's and router up

im not sure why private server wasnt an option when they were killing off dedicated ones, i feared this all long. allowing a local host is not breaking the law, hell games ran like that for a long time, some still do, you can spot them when you have the option to enter ip/dns when searching for a game host. they should have moved all game save data to the local game files and just allowed someone to be a host in the truest sense and let other clients connect, not rocket science. im sure they were 100% well aware of what they were doing, i mean they were still going to have to host this database themselves. their motives are unclear to me.

It would never work in the modern world or with the gaming community but if everyone was to boycott the TCM game until they resolved the Friday the 13th longevity issue oh they would handle business then. Assuming the TCM devs and F13 devs are even tied together anymore, so many studios production companies etc etc it’s hard to tell who owns what anymore.

It doesn't matter now Game is OFFICIALLY DEAD after Dec 31 2024, This just gave the hackers carte blanche to totally take over with no fear of bans.

You have quite literally no clue what you’re talking about, hosting a private server has zero to due with being a hacker. There are plenty of retro games that went offline being held up with private servers, hell if I hook my dreamcast up right now I can play phantasy star online thanks to other intelligent gamers.

The idea is to preserve and keep old/dead games alive, I have no idea why you’re taking this so wrong/negatively.

Good points. But no, none of the devs anywhere have interest in F13. The entire Staff at Gun moved on a couple years ago and there has not even been basic server maintenance in 18+ months. The "servers" are just on auto-pilot, doing what very broken and limited work they provide to the game in it's current state.

The lawsuit arguments are also not valid tbh. Public information is quite clear, and the lawsuit has been settled, all parties involved have closed. Gun Media 100% can continue to support this game, can assign 4-5 employee's to update, run and open the servers back up to the gaming community.

The final results are very, crystal-lake clear: Gun Media can support the game. They can even create more content like Uber Jason and the space station as a level. They just cannot expand any content related to child Jason or Jason's mother.

This game can remain up and running, and supported by Gun Media. The are willingly choosing not to.

So some kind of true peer to peer connection, player hosted servers, and other options will keep this game going for many years.

Player run servers would also open it up to modding, and the modding community would result in a game thriving
