Quake3World

didnt know what subject to call this lol,

how do you print something across the arena screen from the server,i dont mean chat.so every one sees it.

ie i was playing quake arena one day and a large colourful message appeared across my moniter saying hi all wankers lol.


just wondered how you could do this from server

g_motd or motd.txt in some mods. What mod were you playing?

only the server admin can setup MOTD.
"message of the day"
players cannot do it.

sorry,i ment during game play.not at start up.and i am the server admin,newbie i agree but admin i am lol

hello anyone there??

default quake3 motd config ..mods may have a better MOTD system,iknow OSP does

How do I change the MOTD?
set scr_motd "Message" in server file


How do I add colors to the server name or MOTD?
Use the following infront of the letters you want a specific color:
^0 for black text
^1 for red text
^2 for green text
^3 for yellow text
^4 for blue text
^5 for cyan text
^6 for pink text

For example, typing: ^1GriffinRUN would appear as:

lol,im not talking about motd,thats straight forward,during game play you can have a messager appear all the way across the screen in large letter.how do they do that.and i dont mean chat funtion either lol

i'm betting you weren't really laughing out loud

glad i made you laugh
MOTD at the beginning of the round or use a mod does that does it at a certain time interval.
