I have a few questions, first off, how do i set up a good excessive CTF game, i have all these maps and cant play them in CTF mode. And i see all these ***.cfg files, how do i use them?? I figured out that i have to turn the commands into a ***.bat file but i dont know how to direct the path to find the .cfg files and link it all togher. That is my only stump so far. And when i get this running ok can i host my edited files on my site (russty.net/quake3a) nothing is there yet but i'm working on it. Please informe me . I'll try to get back here as soon as possible to see what you guys have said, although i'm moving to florida on the 27th from Pennsylvainia so it might take me some time to get back here. Thanx guys!!

Maybe you should read some guides about setting up a server. There are
many around in the net, just "google" a bit.

To set up a CTF game you have to set g_gametype to 4.

To execute .cfg files use:
quake3.exe +set fs_game excessiveplus +exec test.cfg

The path is relative to the mods directory, like "excessiveplus" in that case.
So "dir1/dir2/test.cfg" means "c:\games\quake3\excessiveplus\dir1\dir2\test.cfg".
You can also execute more .cfg files within "test.cfg".

And you are welcome to host any config files.

Maybe someone just called a vote to change the gametype. There could be many reasons.

Could you post your rotation/config?

g_gametype 0 is Deathmatch

g_gametype 2 is Single Player (don't use it)
g_gametype 3 is Team Deathmatch
g_gametype 4 is Capture the Flag^

Try to alter all "g_gametype 0" to "g_gametype 4"
