  • quakeworld coop server

    Hi, i want to make a quake coop server with linux,
    i downloaded the files needed but it doesn�t work.
    When i launch qwsv i get:
    Code:
    FindFile: can't find server.cfg
    couldn't exec server.cfg
    FindFile: can't find maps/start.bsp
    Can't find maps/start.bsp
    SV_Error: Couldn't spawn a server
    Fatal error: SV_Error: Couldn't spawn a server
    ok where should i place the server.cfg file?
    and maps?
    The last error i don't know what mean, i suppose it is related to the previous errors...

    Is Quake installed to the directory you are trying to run the server from as there shouldn't be any reason at all it can't find start.bsp as that's included in very version of Quake (shareware included).

    maps go in:
    .../quake/id1/maps

    the server.cfg should go in:
    .../quake/id1

      So I just gave this a shot and I was able to go through the maps, but there was no bad guys and the weapons were set up for deathmatch. Any Ideas? is there a flag I need to set up in the server.cfg file?

        id1/pak0.pak must exist and be lower case, as well as id1/pak1.pak or you can't start a server.

        Side note:
        vanilla qwsv doesn't support coop. you must use a third-party server for proper coop. fteqwsv and mvdsv both support coop properly (mvdsv requires an spprogs.dat (for the monsters code) while fte can simply run the nq progs.dat).

          hmmm.... well I went and snagged fteqwsv off of their site, but it did not come with any documentation, nor did I see anything about running a server on their wiki. Think you could point me in the right direction to get a doc?
