RavensSoul Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 I was sitting here thinking the same thing just a few minutes ago. I mean all we want to do is to provide a server for folks to enjoy and us too. UT Dedicated doesn't need a CD to run the server and I don't think that Q3 needs 1 either. Just doesn't make any since.. I know that the idea for a configurable dedicated server is probably new to LucasArts and that they probably just havn't gotten the idea yet that it's rather silly to require a CD to run 1. Hopefully some1 from either Raven or LEC will release a full dedicated server soon.. just my 2 cents Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AtomicRoach Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 I am by NO means an expert on these servers... I'm still learning myself - but can't you just run the dedicated server file and not use the CD? I just downloaded that the other day and I've had a server running for the weekend.. granted, my cd was in the drive, but i dont think it checked for it.

Mertado Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 There are 3 ways to do it. First, download and run the dedicated server program. It takes a little tweakery to get it up, but it runs like a champ without the need for the CD (you must install JK2 first, of course), especially if you run it from a batch file so it automatically reruns itself when those a-hole hackers try to take it down. The second is to add the line 'bot_enable 0' to your dedicated server config file. I'm not positive this will work, but it did in Q3 before they removed the CD check, so it should work here also. The last way involves doing things that game companies don't like, so you'll have to e-mail me on that one. Best bet is the dedicated server app first.

Soul-Burn Posted April 8, 2002 Share Posted April 8, 2002 Just have the files on the server.... ./jkded +dedicated 1 +exec autoexec.cfg and voila, it's running... no CD needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
