Quake3World

Ok, so I am setting up a dedicated server for q3a on my linux box just for fun.. When I run it, it all runs fine, i think (the stuff below is what goes on after my start command)

and my dedserver.cfg will be posted after the output all the way at the bottom

Once its up and all, I go to connect to it from my q3a client... and well... it just sits there.. and sits there.. and does nothing... (this is at the connecting screen) btw, i am using my server's internal IP.

I checked the netstat and the output is this (for the q3a server):
Proto Recv-Q Send-Q Local Address Foreign Address State User Inode
udp 0 0 *:27960 *:* root 39579

^^^^ thats the only thing I see that is using the port 27960
now see that the state is not LISTENING.. So i have no clue whats going on... anyway here is this:

Looks sound. I take it you're using the demo version. Have you tried the icculus source? The demo comes with the PR 1.11 binary, which contains heaps of bugs.

demo as in... linuxq3ded is a demo? or my pak0.PK3 is from a demo quake3?


I just found linuxq3ded on google.. and I've seen it working.. But I did not know that there are other quake3 servers ^_^

I'l get the icculus later on and repost if it works, or whats going on

Thanks!

edit: err nm

post your server cfg. do you have net_ip and net_port set in these cfgs? even if you do you should put +set net_port 27960 and net_ip 192.168.0.x in you shortcut to be sure.

type net_port/ip in server console to see where you stand after that.

my server config:

Also, i've tried to run IOquake3 server, and I get the error:

it looks like it's running but why does it start in q3dm7 ..shutdown then seems to restart fine in q3dm1 ???

things you should try

-download and install the osp mod

--startup like this as a test
xorserv@xorserv:~/q3ds$ sudo ./linuxq3ded +set dedicated 2 +exec dedserver.cfg +map q3dm7

did you try adding what i said in your shortcut?

not sure.. i think thats in the pak file..

Now i tired to run
still doing the same thing..

alright, now i got the IOq3 server working.. just wondering now why its giving me the error when i try to connect to the server: "interface is version 3, expected 6" but i am guessing thats because my cleint is out of date.. i'l update it and repost :P

updated client.. getting same error.. any ideas?

after i updated, i took the pak0 file from the updated client and updated the server pak0 file with the new one.. still get the error though.. hrm..

I'm sorry if this is said, i kinda skimmed

but have you found the 1.32B q3ded,

your con dump up top says you are running 1.11.

Ftp.idsoftware.com if you want to download it

That error comes up because of a fucked up install. I've had it a few times, and a reinstall set things straight.

I forget exactly what the deal was that causes the error, but it's somewhat common. For windows I figured it was an old .exe or something.

I cant find the "q3ded" executable anywhere in the FTP.. nor on google..

*sigh

Hrm... if anyone has the latest, could you send it to me at:
pandemic{at}@impulse100{dot}net

awesome, i got the server, and it all works now.. Thanks for everyones help!!
