| Post subject: | help a noob set up runequake plus server |
hey all, about two years ago I played on a runequake plus server and was thorouhly addicted - at 209.96.178.230. Sadly it's been discontinued for a while now. anyway, I've downloaded the runequake source, and the RQP source, but really have no clue how to use it. browsing through the forums, I haven't found a dummy's guide to quake, which is pretty much what I need. so, anyone feel like babying me through the process of setting up a local runequake(plus) server for myself? |

This thread would be a good starting point for compiling the source: http://forums.runecentral.com/viewtopic ... hlight=rqp Here is a guide that explains some of the FAQs of setting up a server: http://www.quakeone.com/index.php?ind=g ... show&id=44 |

for yourself? this sounds like you could install the Runebot and play against him. he has hook and runes, similar to what u talking about. chuck's runebot. latest version http://www.fileplanet.com/143555/140000 ... nebot-12-- hint u can DL additional maps and play them with the runebot such as the beatdown maps...etc. |

yeah, but I want to be able to run it on a LAN. I got to the point of downloading the compiler... and trying to piece together other things that I've read on the forum about it, but I really can't figure out what the heck I'm supposed to with it. I have both frikqcc and qccx. but like I said, I really don't know what I'm doing. help?

dude, dont complicate yourself with the compiler and all that mumbo jumbo. chances are what you are trying to crop together wont work. unless you are a programmer and can alter code...and know what you are doing. those pieces of code the frikbots and whatever else u had, they have to work in accord and u have to specify somewhere for them to call to each other, which in turn gonna bring more errors, bugs and other crap, if the conflicts are not ironed out by a competent programmer. the mod is already made. if u want runes only and hook, get the runequake sourcecode, which is somewhere here on the site. ask slot for assistance with setting that up. if u want the bots with it then get the runebot, which has runes built in, hook, and bots, but im not sure how u can run a server with it and people can connect into it at the LAN. so your new question should be after you get the runebot, how do u make it in a LAN setting, so people can connect and play? and im sure slot can help u with that one. |

yeah, but I also want to understand about how the whole thing works. that's why, just like I said in the first post, I want someone (if there's someone willing) to give me the step by step instruction to set this thing up; aka, runequake servers for dummies. I'm interested in learning something. |

Just put qccx in the same folder as the source code and execute it from the command line ... c:\quake\rqp054\source> qccx /o2 (press Enter) Then it compiles the progs.dat in the parent folder Then run Quake like as in c:\quake\quake.exe -game rqp054 There is what you are looking for. Unzip the source to c:\quake\rqp054 and compile. I'd recommend using Slot Zero's Rune Quake over Rune Quake Plus for initial playing around, then after you figure that out you can play around with compiling Rune Quake Plus (which has a more complicated folder structure that might be confusing). |

so what exactly is happening when you run a compile? what exactly is it compiling? like I said, I'm curious about the inner workings of this thing. I got it to compile and write a new progs.dat and a new progdefs.h.txt, but when I tried to run using quake.exe it stops saying there's a "general protection fault at eip=00046b43 ... and them some other values, and "Call frame traceback EIP's: 0x00046b43" I try using the same command line but usewqpro.exe and it runs the game, I try to start a multiplayer server, it lists all these values, looks like it's about to start, but then stops with the last line being "runaway loop error" any thoughts? hey, thanks for helping me through this. |

1. Take Slot Zero's Rune Quake 1.2 (Download) 2. Unzip it to c:\quake which will create a sub dir c:\quake\runes 3. Start -> Run-> c:\quake\wqpro.exe -game runes -dedicated 8 4. In the black server console, type "STATUS". An ip address will be displayed. 5. On another computer (or the same computer) do Start -> Run -> c:\quake\glpro.exe and then type "connect <insert IP address from #4>; your client will connect. This runs the progs.dat (provided) that is in the above download. To self compile: 1. Take this download (Rune Quake 1.2 Source)-- NOT the same as above -- which contains the source and unzip it in c:\quake; it will create a folder named c:\quake\runequake-1.2 2. Start -> Run -> cmd (press Enter); you are now on a DOS screen. 3. Unzip the compiler (link in an above post) -- use FRIKQCC 2.5 (Download into c:\quake\runequake-1.2\src or is it c:\quake\runequake-1.2\poq ... try both ... and type: frikqcc_release -allownest /o2 This will create a new progs.dat in c:\quake\runequake-1.2 4. Start -> Run-> c:\quake\wqpro.exe -game runequake-1.2 -dedicated 8 5. In the black server console, type "STATUS". An ip address will be displayed. 6. On another computer (or the same computer) do Start -> Run -> c:\quake\glpro.exe and then type "connect <insert IP address from #5>; your client will connect. At this point you will have compiled a source code and can take this knowledge and apply it to Rune Quake Plus 0.5.4 if you want. |

hey, thanks a ton; I've been able to dive in a little bit more and grasp this stuff a little better. now, when I compile, and I get this error message warning: LINK:0:numpr_globals exceeds SHRT_MAX by 3476 I've seen it listed one other place, but after reading through that forum I'm still not too clear how to remedy. Hey again, thanks a bunch for the help. teh noob really appreciates it
