Hi all.
Trying to build a dedicated server for Quake III for a small competition tomorrow. Anyway, game is a bit old now and a lot of the old helpful sites for Quake III have passed away now.
I am running the game on Win 2k3 via command line switch.
Which is currently quake3.exe +set dedicated 1 +exec ffa.config
Problem i have is 2 fold, one is that in the exec file, the map is set to q3dm17, and yet it constantly keeps starting q3dm2.
Secondly I set the max players to 16 and the server constantly starts with a max of 8 players..
here is the contents of ffa.config
set sv_hostname "PON DEDICADO SERVER"
set sv_maxclients 16
set g_motd "Bienvenido a Playonet"
set g_forcerespawn 15
set rconpassword "*******"
set g_gametype 1
set fraglimit 99
set timelimit 45
//Here's the map-cycle. When fraglimit or timelimit is reached, the map is automatically changed.
//Otherwise it would just play the same map again.
set m1 "map q3dm17; set nextmap vstr m2"
set m2 "map q3dm17; set nextmap vstr m3"
set m3 "map q3dm17; set nextmap vstr m4"
set m4 "map q3dm17; set nextmap vstr m1"
----------------------
As you can see i have made all the maps q3dm17 so that it will always remain on the one map.
But always when the server starts it seems to ignore the ffa.config file, create the map with q3dm17 and set max players to 8.
Anyone have any ideas plz..
Many thanks..
