Introduction
One person told me about the idea of changing the greeting on my server. We found a discussion about change MOTD.
I drew attention to this post:
Originally posted by [TKC:
TacTicToe] MOTD only pops on for about 2 seconds, so unless you have a server full of uber speed readers that just HAPPEN to look into the upper left corner at exactly the right time after joining the server, it doesnt really matter anyway.

MOTD as currently implemented is pretty much useless. Killing Floor is an example of a properly implemented MOTD system. So honestly, it is not worth your time or effort.

You change the MOTD in the PCServer-PrimalCarnageGame.ini

This is an example of a MOTD on one of our servers.

[PrimalCarnageGame.PCBaseInWorldGameReplicationInfo]
MOTD=Welcome to The Killing Crew #1 TDM|Forums are located at www.thekillingcrew.com

And later, i got message with this:
As for the MOTD, you can find it in DefaultGame.ini or PCServer-PrimalCarnageGame.ini, depending on the way you host the server.
How to change MOTD on server
After a couple of attempts, I knew how to change the MOTD.

1 step
Go to %YourSteamFolder%\steamapps\common\Primal Carnage Extinction\PrimalCarnageGame\Config\PCServer. You must open file PCServerGame.ini

2 step
Paste on the empty place of file, for example
[PrimalCarnageGame.PCBaseInWorldGameReplicationInfo] MOTD=Welcome to HUGE idle and fun server

Step 3
Save file, and run server

IF U WANT TO EDIT MOTD AFTER PASTE IN PCServerGame.ini, FIND OPTION IN PCServer-PrimalCarnageGame.ini

If you did everything right, the result will be like in the screenshot below


Actually i'm waiting update with good MOTD like in CS: GO
How to add announcements message
Messages that will be broadcast to the server every X seconds, such as teamspeak or website information.
1. Open file "PCServerGame.ini"
2. Add on the empty place of file this
[PrimalCarnageGame.PCBaseInWorldgameInfo] +TimedAnnouncements=(Message="Your announcement here", Delay=3600)
Delay set in seconds(3600 max.)
Message should be written in inverted commas
IF U WANT TO EDIT IT AFTER PASTE IN PCServerGame.ini, FIND OPTION IN PCServer-PrimalCarnageGame.ini
