Quake3ademo.exe
Not motion blur, use the in game browser and look for server gdonovan. Demo can be downloaded from a number of places including 3dgamers.com and idsoftware. Gary Look for server "GDONOVAN" and make sure you disable game filtering when using the server browser. Zero players on the server is filtered out by default. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 29.01.07 at 02:06:33
and for the version, download demo 1.11 ;)

Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 29.01.07 at 03:16:00 1024 x 768 x32 with 8s AA and 16x filtering with all game options maxed out (6600GT) |

Out of practice, back in the day I use to 'netquake on a modem for 6 hours at a shot. Anyone remember Quakespy? I still have the old install programs, lol. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by paulpsomiadis on 29.01.07 at 06:23:12
Hah, sorry I missed you guys... :(
...but really, we should try using the retail version for some more varied maps. ;) (yeah, I know it was the demo so more people could take part...) ::) |

Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 29.01.07 at 15:34:55
wasn't Q3A opensource, since it's so old lol.

UT or Quake3 are not freeware or abandonware, Quake3 & Unreal is still on sale in a number of retail places. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 29.01.07 at 15:59:45
hmm okay didn't know that, my apollogies for the hassle back there.

And the answer... ;)
...eBay is your friend! 8) |

sigh. The idea is to get as many playing as possible, not everyone has access to Ebay or the inclination to purchase the game. Anyone can download the demo for free. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by jandarsun8 on 29.01.07 at 18:18:19
I'll download it tonight when I get home from work and check it out. I won't get home until 5 pm CST. Would love to hook up with you guys.
|
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 29.01.07 at 18:53:07
btw for the lads that have the original [ no this ain't waerz lol ::)]
here on this site: http://www.planetquake4.net/download.php?op=viewdownload&cid=5&min=90&orderby=titleA&show=10 Heaps of maps, models, skins & patches and many more! it took my like 4 hours to find it!! This is the place where I got the Lone Wolf figure ;) I'm not sure if the extra maps as models will work with the demo, though I am willing to give it a go. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by TM30 on 30.01.07 at 00:11:53
i just DL the demo... when will the next fight start?
|
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gamma742 on 30.01.07 at 00:39:08
I have a copy (demo) does it need to be a certain version to join?
|
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 30.01.07 at 00:46:49
There is only one version of the demo, 1.11.
This is NOT the motionblur version that was leaked out. I'll try to figure out a good time for the next setup, I'll have to look up some server commands... |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by paulpsomiadis on 30.01.07 at 03:59:59
Shame it's not possible to "cross-play" between the DEMO and RETAIL by simply loading the same maps... :P
...I can dream I guess! ::) LOL! ;D |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Mansfield on 31.01.07 at 17:06:57
how I can see my fps in game?
' weird... i can't find any server anymore after playing couple game :o |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 31.01.07 at 20:56:02
open the q3 cfg file and do a search for "fps"
You will find two entrys with "fps" the one your looking for has a value of "0" change it to "1" and save. I think it states something like "display_fps=0" but as I'm at work I can recall. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 31.01.07 at 21:00:33
I'll fire up the server again in about an hour-
look for server "3dfx-gdonovan" |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Mansfield on 31.01.07 at 21:19:39
ok I found that fps it was set_drawfps "0" or something...
damn... again master server is crashed :P |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 31.01.07 at 22:09:09
Setting up server for map rotation, give me a few sec...
|
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Mansfield on 31.01.07 at 22:25:59

trying now. Looks like the master server is down, I'll keep trying for a bit while I tinker with the server.cfg file. I think I have it setup right for an 8 player game with 15 minute roation and 20 frags before roating to 4 different maps, perhaps I can get a few bots going to. |

Just look for the 3dfx server, you can't miss it. We got a heartbeat from the master server, I think were up! False alarm, ugh. |

Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 31.01.07 at 22:43:39

Me too! Nothing going on yet though
I'm going to try launching without the cfg file and see what happens |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 31.01.07 at 22:49:16
Well that IP you gave looks like a network IP of one of your systems , can't find it with the Specify function :(
strange. the one we used was 64.148.35.76 Port 27960 dunno what port the new one has though. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Mansfield on 31.01.07 at 22:52:54

Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 31.01.07 at 23:00:08
Damn router again! (I had to change the allowable IP address)
I have the router taken care of and now the master server is down again. Try this IP- 70.135.201.61 |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 31.01.07 at 23:01:41

Thanks for playing- I'm going to dumb down the bots a touch, shorten the map time five mins
|
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 01.02.07 at 00:06:21
cowabunga that was fun ;D and yeah thanx for downing the bots I know for most of you they are easy but beleve me when playing Flight Sims almost every day Playing Q3A can get alot different heh.
thanx for the fun everyone :) Hey Gary what settings did you use on the 6K? |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by gdonovan on 01.02.07 at 00:26:40
The V6K was running in dedicated server mode, not much to see =)
I'm going to fool with some other settings to see what else I can change to make it more fun, gravity cut to 50% might be interesting. For some reason I can see the game on the Q3 master list, very odd. |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Obi-Wan_Kenobi on 01.02.07 at 00:34:21
yeah very odd indeed heh oh well 50% gravity hmm would have a Descent 1/2/3 taste to it then hmm for a few maps it would be a nice idea, but not for all, running & doging rockets is more fun, try and mix the settings a little :)one map with no gravity hah , one with 50% gravity 2 with 100% gravity orsay normal mode
|
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by jandarsun8 on 01.02.07 at 02:26:07

for the people that have the Retail Quake3 here are some great sites with tons of Maps, Skins, models and other great Q3A gear :)
http://ztn.planetquake.gamespy.com/ http://www.quake3world.com/maps/ this last one has some popups, but they can be avoided with FireFox ;) http://www.planetquake4.net/download.php |
Title: Re: running a Q3demo server 7:45 PM EST Post by Mansfield on 01.02.07 at 08:29:36
It was fun indeed ;D but it took too late. It was 00:27 at local time and I had to wake up at 7 this morning :)
maybe next time bit earlier?? thanx ps how I take screenshots... oldstyle to press printscreen doesn't work. It gives a shot which look like that it heve been taken with broken graphic card :) |

I can try, but no more then a half hour (I don't get out of work will 3:30 EST) Quote:
start the game and bring down the console (press ~, the key to the left of number 1) at any time. type in: bind "f12" screenshot press enter and then exit the console. Now everytime you press F12, you get a large TGA file in the Quake3 directory. |
