Q3A Linux Server Download

EDIT: 26.03.13 Fixed masterservers, Added ddos iptables firewall scripts


Hello, here is something I have complety forgotten collecting dust on my harddrive for quite some time.
It let's you create a dedicated gameserver for Quake III Arena for the Sega Dreamcast 'out of the box*'.

I rechecked all the content corrected some errors and think it's ready to put here.


The biggest difference to other methods mentioned elswhere for creating a dedicated Quake III Arena server are,

A: Size difference only 27 Megabytes (.Mb)
B: No need to upload the whole Quake III Arena CD content to the remote server
C: Preconfigured server configs for vanilla gameplay 'ffa,ctf...'
D: Optional some serverside mods and tools (rcon,serverstats)


Steps:
Download q3a-dc-dedserver.tar.gz
Untar the archiv
Edit Serverstartup scripts eg. ffa.sh for free for all server (username and directory)
Open Server Ports (firewall,router) see README 'Network Ports:'
Start server
Play

It's been a very long while since I've seen you online. Good to see you still around in the Dreamcast world.

Thank you for this!

I used your packages as the basis to set up a couple servers. "Tainted Merkin" is the server name. Some scripts had to be tweaked and re-written a bit, but it eventually worked. The only issue I'm having is staying persistent in the master list. Some times I show up, some times I don't. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it. Any ideas?

They aren't on a real great connection right now (looking for a new host), but it seems to work OK.

The one at 27960 is a standard FFA
The other (27961) is where I'll be working on server mods. Right now, it's either "last man standing" or "Freeze tag". But I plan to work on a few of my own in the near future.

Both currently allow voting.

Incase you wan't to use this as a base for your server. Please update 'global_masterservers.cfg' with the following code. Or nobody will find your server.
