Need Quake4 Server config

Post by **nightwing** » Sat Oct 22, 2005 11:06 pm

Hello all,

I'm trying to start up a server. Can someone post a good dedicated server config.

One that would disable player bobbing and give a server one of those colorful names?

If any of you can post a link to setting up a Quake 4 server I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you all!

Note you can also use this format for name colors:

^cRGB

where RGB is a 0-9 value of each color

Thank you midnight!!

Would you happen to know why my server is not showing up in the Quake game browser list?

Do I have to forward ports?

Thanks again.

You know I found it really odd that I didn't have ports forwarded on my router and yet the server was showing up. But ya if you don't find it I would forward ports, and there is likely a separate port for communication with the master server, so that might be the issue too.

Any idea how to get the map rotation working?

Thanks for the reply Midnight.

Do you know which ports I need to forward for the master server?

I am assuming that you need 28004 port for Quake 4 correct?

Game port: 28004
Heartbeat port: 27650

the heartbeat is what makes it show up... so yea forward that.

net_serverSnapshotDelay "50":

Be carefull with this setting. Unless you're running a really powerfull box, this can really screw shit up. I'm running 30 because its on a dedicated dual 2.8 xeon with 4 gigs of ram with a lot of bandwidth.

a good way to notice what this is set too: turn on your net graph and you'll physically see it scrolling by faster.

Thank you Qr7 will try that. Should I forward both UDP and TCP?

Post by **Qr7** » Sun Oct 23, 2005 4:27 am

udp for 28004

im not sure what the heartbeat uses so i'd forward both for the 27650
