enable auto downloading on a server.
I'm running 2 pcs on a LAN and the pc thats hosting the game is the server. It's got a ton of maps and shit on it.
K?
So when the other pc connects (w/auto downloading on) it gets an error saying couldnt download blah blah blah because auto downloading isnt enabled on the server.
How do I fix this....thx
you can run a dedicated osp server by copying your original q3 shortcut and then right clicking and adding this line in the target.
example:
c:/program files/qiii/quake3.exe +set fs_game osp +set dedicated 1 +exec (sever config name w/sv_allowdownload 1 in it).cfg
in the osp folder, they have sample server cfgs for various gametypes.here's my 1v1 cfg:
Code:
set g_motd "" set server_motdfile "1" set server_ospauth 0 set sv_hostname "CNDA - OSP KNIGHTMARE" set sv_allowdownload 1 set sv_floodprotect 0 set sv_maxclients 6 set sv_pure 1 set g_dowarmup 1 set g_warmup 0 set match_readypercent 100 set match_timeoutcount 5 set match_timeoutlength 100 set sv_fps 40 set server_motd1 " ^B^3CTNDA " set server_motd2 " " set server_motd3 " stats soon " set server_motd4 "" set server_motd5 "" set server_motd6 "" set server_motd7 "" set server_motd8 "" set g_botsfile "mybots.cfg" set g_spSkill "5" seta bot_enable 1 seta bot_minplayers 0 set bot_nochat 1 set sv_punkbuster 0 set timelimit 15 set cl_punkbuster 0
// rcon/Referee password set rconPassword "polvo" set ref_password "ref1"
// Mode config settings // -- Start on g_gametype 1 (1v1 DM) set g_gametype 1 set mode_start 1
// Map settings set map_file "cfg-maps/1v1maps.txt"
map pro-q3dm6
just paste that into a txt file and rename [something].cfg and then exec that cfg with the new shortcut you created.
now you can join the server via the in game browser or all seeing eye, etc.
