Excelent job.
Hmn & how to change proces priority to q3 service(@ startup). By default services are running @ normal prior.
Windows NT command:
start /high quake3 +set dedicated 2 +fs_game excessiveplus +exec server.cfg
Where /high can be replaced by /low, /normal and /realtime.
Also, you can change priority and (or) CPU affinity of any process by pressing CTRL-ALT-DELETE, looking up it in process tab and right clicking it.
Windows NT command:
start /high quake3 +set dedicated 2 +fs_game excessiveplus +exec server.cfg
Where /high can be replaced by /low, /normal and /realtime.
Great, that it is.

This works only on standart proceses, not for services.
What do you mean by "as a service.."?
Windows will run it and treat it just like they would, for example, tcpvsc or some antivirus program.
Ir would be just another "component" of windows.
And then you can do stuff to it that you can do to other components
So its like running the server as something running from windows..like explorer.exe?
exactly
ok, thanks m8
