The best way to run a dedicated server is to create two files - a batch file to start the server, and a config file with the servers�s settings. This will also work on a system without a 3d card. Do this:

Open notepad. Type a line that resembles the following (you can name the cfg file whatever you want to):

quake3 +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg

Then save the file as a batch file. To do this - click File>Save as - and for "Save As Type" select "All Files" Name the file server.bat and save it in your quake3 directory. (again you can name it differently - q3server.bat, qauke.bat or whatever)

Next open a new notepad file and type the following:

seta sv_hostname "DM Server All Maps"
seta sv_maxclients 16
seta g_motd "Welcome to our Quake3 server"
seta g_quadfactor 4
seta g_gametype 0
seta timelimit 15
seta fraglimit 25
seta g_weaponrespawn 3
seta g_inactivity 3000
seta g_forcerespawn 0
seta rconpassword "password"
set d1 "map q3dm1 ; set nextmap vstr d2"
set d2 "map q3dm2 ; set nextmap vstr d3"
set d3 "map q3dm3 ; set nextmap vstr d1"
vstr d1

What it all means:

sv_hostname "DM Server All Maps
What Players will see on the join server window.

sv_maxclients 10
Maximus number of players on the server.

g_motd "welcome to our Quake3 server"
Message players will see while joining the server.

q_quadfactor 4

g_gametype 0
Sets the type of game.
0 - Free For All
1 - Tournament
2 - Free For All (again)
3 - Team Deathmatch
4 - Capture The Flag

timelimit 15
Sets the timelimit.

fraglimit 25

g_weaponrespwan 3

g_inactivity 3000

g_forcerespwan 0

rconpassword "password"

Save this file as server.cfg(or whatever name as long as it matches your batch file)
and save it in your qauke3> baseq3 directory folder. To start the server - just run the batch file that you created earlier.
