As we all know, Sauerbraten enables users to host servers. This is a quick forum post to teach you the basics of hosting one.
INSTALLATION
Sauerbraten comes complete with the bat (windows), and launcher (mac), you won't have to download anything if you want a server. However, if you want a fancy server, you'll need to use a server mod. The list below are just some of the mods:
QServ: https://github.com/deathstar/QServCollect
SpaghettiMod: https://github.com/pisto/spaghettimod
Remod: https://github.com/vasyahuyasa/remod-sauerbraten
Zeromod: https://github.com/andrius4669/zeromod-sauerbraten
SuckerServ: github.com/SuckerServ/suckerserv
Hopmod: code.google.com/p/hopmod
SETUP
Windows:
First off, you'll need to forward 2 ports to you hosting computers IP address, normally you can type your IP address into your web browser, this should bring you to router setup, once there find "Port Forwarding" then forward two ports: "28785" and "28786". The ports should be forwarded using TCP & UPD.

Hi
I am running a Server on Win7. It runs great but i`ve got some questions about scripts and more.
How can i add a script to kick Teamkillers automaticly?
Where can i get other Options like #votekick or something else?
When I am playing a map, for example hallo insta ctf mode, after the 10 minutes time the server doesn`t load a new map. why?
I typed a Motd in the Server.init but i can`t read it when i connect to it.
If i type /connect serverip it doesn`t connect, there is just the option to search it on the server list.
Please help me
Greetings, Dom
There are a lot of people with auth passwords who are able to kick team-killers on an auth server. I would like to be able to do this myself. Does anyone have an suggestions?

Hi everyone. Nice to see Quad has its own forums now!
Basically I'm working on an SP map, and I'm using quite a few custom textures. I'm currently adding specular and normal maps, but the weird thing is that these effects don't seem to show.
Well, they rendered once - and there was so much glare that the map was burned into my retinas for a week. I'd like to make these effects a bit more subtle, but the engine isn't applying these shaders any more. Thus progress is kind of on halt until I can see the changes.
Does anybody have any ideas as to what's going on? Pixel shaders seem to work with the default textures, so it's probably the way I've packaged it. The only thing is that it did work once. Then never again.
I've got a nvidia 9600gt gfx card, and all shader effects are enabled.
Map config and texture package files are attached.
Thanks.
