I am trying to set up a server but i have a problem. When i run the server with the standard server cfg i have packet loss 38% - 40%
When i run it with a cfg i found on drt's site i get connection interrupted.
Inbound and outbound are allowed only for port 27960. I use firestarter firewall.

Any ideas?

I don't think it helps but this is how i run it (in case i do something wrong here)

nohup ioquake3 +set fs_game excessiveplus +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

This could be replied already but i don't have time to search, especially with the weird search engine they got here :roll:

try add this commands in server config, maybe it will fix problem:

set sv_maxrate "25000"
set com_hunkmegs "80"

and try to change valuse of this :

set sv_fps "20"

but maybe someone who hosting server can help better.

What kind of machine is it? Do you know what kind of internet connection it has? I assume its on Linux since you got that nohup in there.

In your server.cfg, what map are you loading? Theres a bug in 1.03 if the map in server.cfg is the same map as the first in the rotation, then it hangs with the 'connection interrupted' message. Use test_bigbox in the server.cfg. Also, are you running PB? Oh, guess not you're using the Icculus quake3... Have you tried with ID's quake3? I havent tried running ioq3 with e+, I'll do that when I get home.

@Tartaros: I had similar problem. I've sent You via PM mine server config (just simply unpack it to your quake3 directory, and run dakarin-server.bat), check it out if problem still occurs.

wtf, all are right Shock

@ Starless, i loaded another map and the connection interrupted message wasn't there. I was just testing so i didn't run PB. With Icculus i had connection interrupted but with id's all was good (with any map loading).

@ Dak, your cfg seems to work fine with Icculus.

wtf, all are right Shock

btw, did you guys know that excessive plus without Icculus doesn't take up 100% cpu when idle? I didn't, so all this trouble with it for no reason Confused

It works now but i still want to experiment some more to see how things really work. However, something deep inside tells me to leave things untouched, at least for now Big grin

--edit--

Thx Big grin
