Quake2 Dedicated 3.20 For Sun Solaris (x86 and Sparc)
-----------------------------------------------------
Please see the readme.txt file included for general information about the
game. This file contains Solaris specific information.
Requirements
------------
Solaris x86 2.5.1 or later, Sun Solaris Sparc 2.5.1 or later.
Installation
------------
To install the Quake2 data files, mount your Quake2 CD and copy
the directory install/data to the location where you want Quake2. You
can also symlink it, but I don't recommend that. Around 200MB of disk
space is required for a full installation.
For example:
cp -r /mnt/cdrom/install/data/* /usr/games/quake2
This binary only runs as a dedicated server and requires no special
user permissions.
You can also set dmflags, timelimit, etc. in a config file, like so:
set timelimit 20
set fraglimit 25
set dmflags 532
map fact3
Then exec that config file on load, like so:
./q2ded +exec server.cfg
If you use a config file, you must put a 'map' command in it or the
server won't load a map.
To run a dedicated server in the background, use this;
nohup ./q2ded +exec server.cfg &
A better way is to run Quake2 on a tty via screen. screen can be found
at ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/pub/gnu/screen-3.7.4.tar.gz.
