Tuxgames has it listed as the 31st of Oct 03, I would give it an extra month or more.

I think the RTCW Engine runs much better and faster overall, so naturally ET will as well. Army Ops isn't that bad though.

Trial and error builds the better servers, if there is an error in you config, it should give some sort of error. This is how I did my Dedicated SS:TFE and SS:TSE servers. You are using it right from what I saw on the site. But you really won't know until you try it yourself by starting it and playing it.

See Google is your friend :lol: http://www.slackercentral.com/quake3/

I have never run a dedicate Q3 server, but I can provide assistance on one thing, instead of typing out; cd /usr/local/games/quake3 screen ./q3ded +set dedicated 2 +set net_port 27960 +set com_hunkmegs 56 +exec server.cfg You can also make another script called q3ded and add all this to it, chmod 755 the script and just run the script: #!/bin/sh #My Quake 3 Dedicated startup script cd /usr/local/games/quake3 ./q3ded +set dedicated 2 +set net_port 27960 +set com_hunkmegs 56 +exec server.cfg #End of Script ---------------------------- $chmod 755 q3ded $./q3ded And voila ... You should be able to do a Google search and find some great Server Admin Sites. There are some for UT/UT2003, but I don't have any for Q3 right on hand for you. I hope the script idea makes life easier for you :)

:wink: Nope, this is relaxtion for me. It is my stress relief lately, it takes my mind off of what I normally do on a daily basis :)

Thanks johnnyv, is there an editor or progam I can use to view previously compiled code in Linux, or is this possible at all ?

I want to learn how to create a binary file for games. For example these types of game binary files "armyops-bin", "ut2003-bin". Any information on creating these types of files for gaming would be of great benefit to myself. Thanks.

HOW DARE YOU :wink: :P I don't think they will be coming after you with pitch forks so you should be ok :D LOL, this is what happens though when I get bored. I start going .."What if ?" way too much LMAO. I got the file straightened out I think. I just tested the installation again. I am going to create a single file now, then add a link.

I got bored again at home, so I went and created my own AO Linux Installer, I just have to fix one little thing and will add it to my site. Sorry Icculus and Ravage, please don't get angry. :(

yeah but what do we have ravage here for? ciao! We could join them :)

You could of course create your own installer DOlson :shock:

I have a the follow hardware list below, including Video Card. And I am running Mandrake 9.1 and everything rocks.

Here is the port list you need to also add into Guarddog Firewall so you can connect to the master servers; 1716 - UDP 1717 - UDP 1718 - UDP 8887 - UDP 27900 - UDP 20045 - UDP I still have not been able to get on any of the servers yet, I had register an account prior to playing. Once I did this I still was not able to get on the servers. I suspect it had to be authorized first. I just have not tried again since I added the ports to Guarddog, keep getting side tracked..

I have signed it. Didn't give real name or address, but still it is another voice against SCO...

upuaut; Follow the above directions. If your having a hard time understanding how to follow them, then try going to my website. I have pretty much the same thing, but you might understand it better if the layout is different ? http://mandrake101.no-ip.org/ - Native Linux Gaming Section I hope you this more clearer for you :)

I have the game, it is quite cewl.

I had the same problems with the LiveCD, if you want some instructions on how to get the data off the CD, check my website. I have compiled all the info from this thread and the other one on Gentoo Forum, and made a little Tutorial on how to extract the game from the CD. I am still creating the site right now but the info there will help you out. http://mandrake191.no-ip.org/

LMAO .....

I have already switched from sendmail to postfix, because I know it is already running and working. That is what I am trying to do. Get notifications via Postfix instead of Sendmail. But neither seem to be working properly. I did email Matt as well about this, but I have not got a reply back yet.

Thanks Paul and LiquidZoo, that did the trick for me.....Game ON !!

Here is snippet of the code which uses sendmail. Yes it is a perl script "guestbook" for web sites. You can setup the option to email you when someone enters something in the guestbook, using sendmail. But I wanted to use Postfix because know it is working using LogSentry (aka logcheck) which goes through the log files, snort logs, and emails them to me locally. ************************************************************** # Set Your Options: $mail = 1; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No $uselog = 1; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No $linkmail = 1; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No $separator = 1; # 1 = <hr>; 0 = <p> $redirection = 0; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No $entry_order = 1; # 1 = Newest entries added first; # 0 = Newest Entries added last. $remote_mail = 0; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No $allow_html = 1; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No $line_breaks = 0; # 1 = Yes; 0 = No # If you answered 1 to $mail or $remote_mail you will need to fill out # these variables below: $mailprog = '/usr/sbin/postfix'; $recipient = 'me@me.local.comt'; ******************************************************************************** * ######### # Options # Mail Option if ($mail eq '1') { open (MAIL, "|$mailprog $recipient") || die "Can't open $mailprog!n"; print MAIL "Reply-to: $FORM{'username'} ($FORM{'realname'})n"; print MAIL "From: $FORM{'username'} ($FORM{'realname'})n"; print MAIL "Subject: Entry to Guestbooknn"; print MAIL "You have a new entry in your guestbook:nn"; print MAIL "------------------------------------------------------n"; print MAIL "$FORM{'comments'}n"; print MAIL "$FORM{'realname'}"; if ( $FORM{'username'} ){ print MAIL " <$FORM{'username'}>"; } print MAIL "n"; if ( $FORM{'city'} ){ print MAIL "$FORM{'city'},"; } if ( $FORM{'state'} ){ print MAIL " $FORM{'state'}"; } if ( $FORM{'country'} ){ print MAIL " $FORM{'country'}"; } print MAIL " - $daten"; print MAIL "------------------------------------------------------n"; close (MAIL); } if ($remote_mail eq '1' && $FORM{'username'}) { open (MAIL, "|$mailprog -t") || die "Can't open $mailprog!n"; print MAIL "To: $FORM{'username'}n"; print MAIL "From: $recipientn"; print MAIL "Subject: Entry to Guestbooknn"; print MAIL "Thank you for adding to my guestbook.nn"; print MAIL "------------------------------------------------------n"; print MAIL "$FORM{'comments'}n"; print MAIL "$FORM{'realname'}"; if ( $FORM{'username'} ){ print MAIL " <$FORM{'username'}>"; } print MAIL "n"; if ( $FORM{'city'} ){ print MAIL "$FORM{'city'},"; } if ( $FORM{'state'} ){ print MAIL " $FORM{'state'}"; } if ( $FORM{'country'} ){ print MAIL " $FORM{'country'}"; } print MAIL " - $daten"; print MAIL "------------------------------------------------------n"; close (MAIL); }

I read the stuff at the Gentoo forum, but found it confusing. How can I do this like you are discussing above ? What program is required by Mandrake to extract the coop file ? Where do I get the "coop" package for Mandrake ?

Anyone have Postfix properly working with "Matt's Free Guestbook" Perl script ? I want to be emailed when someone enters something in the Guestbook but so far tests have not worked properly.
