server_compile.sh & start_server.sh for Linux ioq3 sysadmins If your distribution doesn’t include such niceties, these could help a newbie get started with a compiled build of ioquake3 for servers and a short script to get started. 2015-07-07 00:14:34 +00:00			`#!/bin/sh`
Escape quotes for sv_dlURL in shell so it doesn't become "http:" q3ded +set sv_dlURL "http://example.org" The shell removes the quotes but makes the content be a single argument for progam args. Quake 3 concatenates all the program args and splits lines at + or newlines. Then Quake 3 parses them using a tokenizer that skips unquoted C comments beginning with //. This results in the cvar being set to "http:". Escape the quotes so they are passed to the program and the tokenizer knows not to skip C comments. q3ded +set sv_dlURL \"http://example.org\" 2017-07-21 03:37:36 +00:00			`echo "Edit this script to change the path to ioquake3's dedicated server executable and which binary if you aren't on x86_64."`
