Dashboard: Server Management
Server Management Dashboard
Welcome to the HawkSync Server Management area. Use this dashboard as your starting point to configure and run your server operations.
Important Setup Notes
Before running the game server, when setting up the HawkSync Server Manager on an existing game installation, delete the following files from the game directory:
| File | Required Action |
|---|---|
| DFV.cfg | Delete before first startup with HawkSync Server Manager. |
| autores.bin | Delete before first startup with HawkSync Server Manager. |
If you plan to use the 64 Hz patched executable, place the patched .exe file into the game directory before starting the server. If the patched executable is already present in the game directory, you can leave it as-is.
Both DFBHD.exe and hawksync.exe must be run as Administrator for proper operation.
