== Public Enterprise Hosting ==
This guide explains how to host games on ENT's [http://entgaming.net/link/host.php public hosting system]. There are two ways to do this:
# [[#Hosting_through_ENT_Link (website)]]
# or [[#Hosting_through_Battle.net]] on Asia, USWest, USEast or Europe.

<div class="panel-body">
Hosting via battle.net will only host on the official battle.net servers (and garena & entconnect). You will not be able to host via server.eurobattle.net or any other inofficial servers. If that is the case, host via the website. Furthermore, ENT does not administer any bans enforced in privately hosted games, nor do we punish hosts for their usage of kicks. The only reasons for us getting active is if they violate any of the rules below.

Using the ENT public hosting service to

* advertise anything or
* pretend being an Enterprise Gaming auto-hosted game by using ''#'' in the game name or
* do anything but not actually play the game
is '''ban-able'''. If a moderator sees that, he is given the permission to warn you and unhost the game.

=== Hosting through ENT Link (website) ===
You can now host directly from the website and then join the hosted game through ENT Connect, Garena, or Battle.net. The website also has the advantage of allowing you to select the location to host a game in. You'll need to register an account first, though.
# First, go to [http://entgaming.net/link/host.php Host A Game]. You'll have to add some maps to your personal list. To do this, click the [http://entgaming.net/link/host_add.php list of added maps] link.
# Once you have added the map, go back to the ''Host A Game'' page, enter the username that you will join the game with (in case your Battle.net and forum usernames are different), select a map and location, and press ''Host''. Check the games list and wait until your game is hosted and then join the game.
#: '''Tip:''' You can see when your game is hosted on the ENT [http://entgaming.net/forum/games.php games] page.
#: '''Warning:''' Hosting on un-official servers like Garena or server.europebattle.net makes it impossible to spoofcheck. Therefore, you will not be able to use host commands like spoofcheck or !pub, etc.
=== Hosting through Battle.net ===
# First, go to the Clan ENT channel by typing "''/j Clan ENT''". You can always whisper the commands to "Clan.Enterprise" if the channel becomes unavailable for whatever reason.
# Choosing your location: To see all available locations, type ''!location''. To change the default location (which is atlanta), type ''!location <location>''.
#* Example:
#; <code>aRt)Y: !location</code>
#; <code>Clan.Enterprise: Locations: [atlanta] ny europe seattle la au jp.</code>
#; <code>aRt)Y: !location europe</code>
#; <code>Clan.Enterprise: Your hosting location has been updated to [europe].</code>
# Selecting a map: Now you are able to choose the map you would like to host by typing ''!map'' (map you would like to search for). If there is more than one version of the map, you will need to type the full map name.
#* Example: ''!map DotA 6.74c.w3x''). As mentioned in the previous step, if the channel is unavailable you can whisper the bot with the whisper Clan.Enterprise the command "''/w Clan.Enterprise !map mapname.w3x''".
# There are a few other commands you may find useful for loading a map. ''!load'' will load a map configuration file or a load code.
## For example, "''!load dota_ref''" will load the latest DotA map and add referees, while "''!load 12345''" will load the map with load code "''12345''".
## Also, "''!map :mapname''" will search through the maps uploaded by players.
# Hosting the game:
#* After selecting the map, you may now proceed to host the game by typing ''!pub (game name)''.
#* Hosting a private game is slightly different, as you do ''!priv'' instead of ''!pub''. Obviously, if the game name you chose is taken, it will not host and if it contains bad words, they will be '''replaced''' with symbols (!, @, #, &).
# Once you have chosen a game name, you will be placed into the queue. Once you're first in queue, your game will be hosted shortly.

If the bot doesn't respond to these commands, it either means you entered the wrong username on the web form (if you hosted through the website) or you have to spoof-check. You can spoof check by typing /w botname sc (the bot's username appears in the chat when you join the game).
</div></div></div>
=== Upload your own maps to ENT public hosting! ===
This guide will go through uploading your own map and hosting it with our public hosting service. You will need a forum account if you do not have one already.

<div class="panel panel-info-white-border">
<div class="panel-heading">
<div class="panel-title">Note</div>
</div>
<div class="panel-body">
You do not need a forum account to host maps already on our bots.
</div></div></div>
Instructions:
# Before you begin, look at our list of [http://entgaming.net/link/host_add.php player-uploaded maps] to make sure someone has '''not already uploaded''' the same map.
# First, it is recommended that you [http://entgaming.net/link/validate.php validate] your Battle.net account.
## Enter your username and realm. You will get a code that you will have to whisper to Clan.Enterprise. For example, ''!validate 0FDX8''.
## Sign on to battle.net with the username and realm that you entered and then enter a chat room and whisper Clan.Enterprise with the code.
## Now click the [http://entgaming.net/link/accounts.php List Linked Accounts] link and you should see your account appear. If not, try to whisper the code again.
# Now, go to [http://entgaming.net/link/ ENT Link] and ''[http://entgaming.net/link/makemehost.php select Upload your map]''. You should now be redirected to a place that asks you to upload a map. After selecting your map and uploading simply by clicking Upload, you should see it appear on the list (there is a column for load code but that is not required any more to play your map. Your map is uploaded to our system now!
# Finally, to host your map, use the following commands:
#; <code>/w Clan.Enterprise !map :map name</code>
#; <code>/w Clan.Enterprise !pub gamename</code>
#: So basically, just put a ''colon'' (:) before your map name. Everything else is the same as how you would normally use our public hosting service!
# If that does not work, you can use the old load code system. The load code is the column that I mentioned above and should be approximately five characters long.
#; <code>/w Clan.Enterprise !load :loadcode</code>
#; <code>/w Clan.Enterprise !pub gamename</code>
#: Take your load code, put a colon (the "'':''" character) before it, and then ''!load'' and ''!pub'' as you normally would.
# Uploaded maps are public. '''Anyone''' can load them using the colon. To see what maps a certain user have uploaded, find their forum user ID and then type ''!map :userid''. To get the user ID, go to the user profile (use [http://clanent.net/forum/memberlist.php?mode=searchuser this link] to find a member) and then take the last number in the URL.
#: For example, my profile link is ''entgaming.net/forum/memberlist.php?mode=viewprofile&u=2''. That means my user ID is 2. So then I would type:
#; <code>/w Clan.Enterprise !map :2</code>
#: Or in case some maps have "''2''" in them, this is better:
#; <code>/w Clan.Enterprise !map :.2</code>
#: The dots make sure it doesn't match a 2 in the map name. Then you'll see all or some of the maps you've uploaded.
Alternatively, you can look at [http://entgaming.net/link/host_add.php the list of uploaded maps] and find a map from there.
=== Administer your personal banlist ===
You can find your [http://entgaming.net/link/bans.php personal banlist] there. It allows you to manually ''unban'' or ''ban'' users.
Just enter:
# Their username.
# Realm (select one).
# Provide a reason (so you know what you banned them for).
# Selected one of your [http://entgaming.net/link/accounts.php ENT linked accounts].
#: If you do not have any accounts linked, [http://entgaming.net/link/validate.php validate it].
