chaosdm with linux problems

Post by supers »

I'm having a problem running Chaos in dedicated server mode in linux, everyone can connect but none of the chaos functions work, nor there is no chaos weapons, only regular quake weapons

Hi supers


You'll need a "set game chaos" in either your server.cfg file or add it to the command line that starts the server..... here's a command line for a windows server....

quake2.exe +set game chaos +exec server.cfg

linux should be similiar, if not the same...

Hi! This is just a guess but what about adding
+set gamedir chaos
to your command line?

The Following is from PQ's console commands page:

gamedir
Type: String

Default: none

Description: The directory name where the game files are located when the server is running a custom game configuration.


Sorry if this is of no help. Good luck!

D:\quake2\quake2.exe +set public 1 +set dedicated 1 +set game chaos +exec server.cfg
Is the shortcut I use
just change the D:\quake2 part to whereever your q2 is located.
