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

well, I dont have a server config to tell you the truth. I just crank it up from the main menu and change it from local or whatever to LAN and go

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.
