There used to be a chat command you could type inside Quake 2, and everyone on the same server would automatically respond with their Client/Version of their Q2 Client. What's this command so I can see what version everyone is using?
I am looking for a way to have custom team- and enemy models in multiplayer Q2 games. For example, I want my own team to always have the female models, and enemy team mebers always the male model. Quake Live and some Q2 mods already support it, but especially older ones, like Rocket Arena 2 for example, don't.
Some years ago there were client side Q2 proxies, such as Nitro 2 and Xania. I used to play with Xania, which provided exactly this possibility. Xania is long gone, but I still was able to locate an older version of it using google. But still I doubt that it would pass current anti cheat detections.
There should be a way to configure R1Q2 to accomplish something similar? Can someone help?
UDP_OpenSocket: Couldn't bind to UDP port 27910: Cannot assign requested address Couldn't allocate dedicated server IP port on 87.73.79.21:27910. Another application is probably using it. Error: Couldn't allocate dedicated server IP port on 87.73.79.21:27910. Another application is probably using it.
How can this be fixed?
[edit] I'm launching the server with this command:
I just found out the coolest thing ever Its possible to play Quake 2 with Xatrix Mod in CTF Mode, even with Bots. The trick is using good old Gladiator Bot, which includes Xatrix, Rogue, CTF and even RA2 code, which can all be activated selectively using server cvars. So what I did is first generating an override file for q2ctf6 with xatrix weapons (just for testing purposes). Then I extracted latest gladiator bot linux files into my server's Quake2/xatrix directory, made symlinks for both the pak0 and pak1.pak files from ctf. The problem is, the client also needs to symlink (or copy) the ctf-pak files to the xatrix directory to make this work. It would probably also be possible by copying the xatrix-pak file to the ctf directory and running gladiator from there. Yes, and then loading up my override in r1q2-ded (+setting some minimum server cvars, most important +set xatrix "1" and +set ctf "1") I was able to play q2ctf6 against Bots with xatrix weapon. The combination of dual fire with the accel-rune really rules. I never saw such a short firing interval before. But also traps can be very funny if you throw them into the enemy base.
What do you think about it? Does the combination make sense? Would it even be desirable to have a Tastyspleen server running gladiator bot? What I didn't try so far if RA2 mode works with xatrix or rogue code enabled. Can't imagine even RA2 with rogue/xatrix weapons.
tastyspleen is running t least three xatrix servers with some custome modifications (for example to traps). I like these and would like to obtain the source code. Is it available somewhere?

But, from what Paril told me about CleanCode, as long as the dll is compatible with the engine it should work. Both CleanCode & Berserker are C++ vs C.
I heared about CleanCode. But why do you mention it? Did you try Berserker with CleanCode game.dll? Is CleanCode released at all?
