Universal Server Project

heh, bakemaster, don't worry about it. With this post you've already expended way more energy on the issue than I would ask or expect. I'll use glpro 3.50 for life, I love it, I've been using it for over a decade, it's in my very soul. I'm sorry if I disrespected your proquake updates. I'm sure if I gave the new one a whirl it might solve some of the issues, or some of the issues have already resolved themselves by driver updates and whatnot. Thank god someone is still carrying the proquake torch

I compiled the modified proquake 3.90 server on Debian Etch. Grab it here:

Sandbox.quakeone.com in Chicago (Master Splinter's server) is now running Universal Server Release #1.

Features: slide, zerstorer deathmatch, ffa vanilla dm with 111 maps, rocket arena with 63 maps and the qMatrix mod.

Using the server:

Type "commands" for the list of commands.
Type "levels" for the list of maps available

Mod voting: Type ffa, slide, zer, arena or qmatrix to vote to switch to those mods. (Those are indicated in commands).

I don't have it sending to Qrack/ProQuake 4 clients the URL for the download yet. I'm still doing setup, so you'd definitely need the "Universal Server" client zip. I'll get to that part later in the day.

Thanks! I'll add that to the ProQuake downloads section.

Lets hear a !!!

[monoz]

what about 3wave ?

[Baker]

what about 3wave ?

That'll be coming in Release #2. Threewave is very important, of course.

/It will be stock ThreeWave with the ThreeWave skins and flags. R00k's [far more refined version] isn't open source. This means that I am not certain if a "match mode" exists in the stock ThreeWave CTF to prevent people from crashing the party. HOWEVER, no doubt that this can be added eventually. Most mods need that functionality.

Killzone New York is setup with Universal Server.

Neither Chicago or New York is telling ProQuake 4 or Qrack the file download URL yet.

In the meantime, if you want to connect, download this an unzip into quake\id1 folder.

I'll wait for the URL to go live.. so we can do some proper testing on all that stuff

[Lerster]

nice work.

[MasterSplinter]

Pretty sweet! I just checked out Sandbox, and Slide was ruinning... Can't wait to see what it is like with other folks.

I swapped between mods... and it was perfect! No more hopping to another server for RA!!! Weeee!!

[MasterSplinter]

If someone in CA gets 'called out'.... they can settle it like Players in the Thunderdome: RA

[Baker]

I need to take a few minutes and get Sandbox and Evade's servers in the server browser.

And probably AirRocket or whatever the one that dfsp_spirit has setup in Europe.

[dfsp_spirit]

Wait with the airrocket server, I'll PM you when everything is ready. I got the server binary but it's not running there atm cause I don't have the mods or maps installed anyway.

And it's just a fun server for friends and testing of my beta maps. Ofc everybody's free to play there all day long but I won't be there and do admin work on it.

It will be at airrocket.net, default port I guess.

[Mindf!3ldzX]

so I could connect,and say,vote-airquake
and play that mod without downloading it?

This whole thing is going to evolve very rapidly, but Universal Server Release #1 Beta: http://www.quake-1.com/files/univers...r1_gamedir.zip for you (or anyone else like Evade) to play with on their server in the mean time.

Correct. It downloads what you need while connected to the server far faster than, say, the old Quakeworld download ever worked.
