nQuake

nQuake for Windows has been updated to version 1.8a, the only change being the removal of the security module. The nQuake CD-ROM Generator was updated for the same reason. nQuake for Linux was updated also, but got a quick "fix" where the README file was renamed to INSTALLER, to provide clarity :-)

ezQuake has also been updated to 1.8.3, sorry for the delay.

If you are one of nQuake's mirrors or would like to be one, please update your rsync cronjob to the following:

0 */3 * * * rsync -rtz rsync://f.nu/nquake <b>/path/to/nquake/files</b>

where /path/to/nquake/files can be something like /www/nquake.

You might also want to edit your apache config so your mirror can be reached from <mirrorname>.nquake.com, like this:

<VirtualHost *:80>
ServerName <b>mymirror</b>.nquake.com
ServerAlias random.nquake.com
DocumentRoot <b>/path/to/nquake/files</b>
<Directory <b>/path/to/nquake/files</b>>
Allow from all
Options +Indexes
</Directory>
</VirtualHost>

This allows people to reach the f.nu mirror from http://mymirror.nquake.com and http://random.nquake.com (randomly chosen mirror).

After you've done this, make a post here telling me the URL of the mirror (http or ftp), the server's IP, the server's connection (Mbit/s), and the location of the server (country and city), that is unless you are already hosting an nQuake mirror and the URL to the files have not changed.

I have started working on nQuake Server Edition.

Features will include:

• Simple installation interface á la nQuake for Windows/Linux/*BSD.
• Option to upgrade existing installation.
• Server-specific settings are set during installation.
• Modifications: Arena, Clan Arena, Capture The Flag, (Frogbot?), KTX, Team Fortress.
• Team Fortress will have an option to install any of the variants available.

If you have any input on what should be included or any specific settings you think should be set, please feel free to tell me.
