- x. Creating custom gametypes (factories)
- x. Using external remote console
- ---------------
- TODO: ask ttimo for help. zlib is definitely in there. libc/libgcc/libstdc?
- To run the 32-bit version of the server, you will need to install 32-bit versions of all libraries. See your
- distribution's instructions on how to perform this.
- -------------------------
- Install and update the server through SteamCMD, using a command similar to below.
- ./steamcmd.sh +login user pass +force_install_dir ./steamapps/common/qlds/ +app_update 349090 +quit
- Please see the Valve Developer Community for full SteamCMD options: https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/SteamCMD
- Run the server using the provided run_server_x86.sh and run_server_x64.sh scripts. This will set the proper working
- directory and LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the correct libsteam_api.so. You can add command line options at will.
- A standard server or VPS can host many instances of Quake Live, so you may wish to run multiple servers. We recommend
- managing them through a third party process control system. Below is a sample script that will take one parameter: a
- number starting at 0. This will launch a server with a unique hostname, port, rcon port, and stats port. This is a
- great way to quickly run a small cluster of servers on a single box.
- You should change the path to reflect where you have installed the game. Never run the server under root.
- #!/bin/bash
- rconport=`expr $1 + 28960`
- exec /home/user/steamcmd/steamapps/common/qlds/run_server_x86.sh
- +set net_port $gameport
- +set sv_hostname 'My Quake Live Server #$servernum'
- +set fs_homepath /home/user/.quakelive/$gameport
- +set zmq_rcon_password 'dog'
- +set zmq_stats_enable 1
- +set zmq_stats_port $gameport
- This can be combined with a process control system like supervisord in order to manage and launch any number of
- instances. Note that supervisord is third party software, and the below may change at any point. We will not support
- You will need to replace 'user' with the user name of the dedicated server.
- [program:quakelive]
- command=/home/user/steamcmd/steamapps/common/qlds/launch.sh %(process_num)s
- process_name=qzeroded_%(process_num)s
- autorestart=true
- In conjunction with the above launch script, this will give you 10 server instances, numbered #1 to #20, starting
- at port 27960, with rcon starting at port 28960. They will automatically restart if crashed. For information on using
- x. Configuring your server
- Configure your server through server.cfg. You may wish to make a copy of this file and place it into your fs_homepath,
- as updates to the default server.cfg may revert your changes to default. The default server.cfg is heavily commented,
- There is no need to specify a map on the command line or server.cfg. The server will automatically execute the variable
- 'serverstartup' when the server has completed initialization. By default, this will launch a random map selected
- from the server's map pool. Please see the below section on configuring map pools.
- Quake Live servers are designed to handle multiple gametypes, and multiple gametype variations on one server. This
- means that your server can switch from Free For All to Capture the Flag to Clan Arena, to even variants of gametypes,
- such as InstaGib FFA, and custom variations that provide more traditional competitive settings.
- Because of this, you should generally not place gameplay settings inside server.cfg. Although the server will attempt
- to restore all old settings after switching gametypes, these factory settings will override settings in server.cfg.
- See the below section on creating custom factories to setup your own match rules.
- ------------------------------
- Quake Live reads and stores to a persistent text file on disk information about who has access to server moderation,
- server administration, and ban list. By default, this is in the file access.txt, and can be changed through the
- Only edit this file on disk while all servers are stopped, as the game will write out the current access list before
- each map load. In order to have access to your server, you will need to add yourself as an admin. Obtain your
- 64-bit Steam ID by connecting to any match, and typing /players in the console. Put it in access.txt in the
- Save the file, and start the server. You can then use /mod, /admin, /demote, /ban and /unban commands to manage the
- x. Setting up a map pool
- The server's map pool accepts a map, and a factory, delimited with a . See the default mappool.txt for an example.
- A different file can be specified through 'sv_mapPoolFile'
- If you wish to use your own custom factories, you can specify them in here so that your custom factory will appear
- in the three map voting system at the end of the game.
- If you wish to lock your server to one gametype, then make sure your map pool only contains maps in that factory,
- then add 8 to g_voteFlags to stop 'callvote map' from accepting the optional factory argument. This is not
- usually needed though; we recommend allowing your players to play and callvote whatever gametypes they wish to
- play on your servers, but it is often not bad to restrict Duel servers due to the low player counts.
- ----------------------------------------
- Setting up a custom factory is a bit more involved than the past solutions of editing config files, but it allows for
- more flexibility in match rules, while ensuring that settings don't leak over into future matches. By default,
- Quake Live ships with base rules for every gametype, and a few variations. Other factories may be available on Steam
- To define your own gametype factory, create a 'scripts' folder inside your baseq3 directory, and name the file with
- This file is a JSON file that contains either a JSON array with multiple factories, or a JSON object containing a
- single factory. For example, here is the built in InstaGib FFA factory:
- {
- 'title': 'Instagib FFA'
- 'description': 'Railgun and Gauntlet only. One shot, one kill.',
- 'cvars': {
- 'g_spawnArmor': '0',
- 'g_instagib': '1',
- 'timelimit': '15',
- 'fraglimit': '50',
- 'g_loadout': '0'
- }
- All fields should be present and of the correct type.
- 'id' is how you will refer to the factory inside a map pool or a callvote, and must be a string.
- 'title', 'author' and 'description' are all strings containing info about the factory, and can be seen in Start Match
- 'basegt' is a string of the base gametype it should apply the settings on. Valid values for 'basegt' are:
- ffa, duel, race, tdm, ca, ctf, oneflag, har, ft, dom, ad, rr
- 'cvars' is an object containing key value pairs of the cvar names and values to set.
- If a factory is invalid, the reason why will be printed in the console during startup, and the factory will not be
- x. Using Steam Workshop
- Quake Live will only autodownload custom content that has been uploaded to Steam Workshop. The legacy HTTP and UDP
- download functions have been removed. If you want your players to be able to play custom content on your servers,
- To add a workshop item to your server, add its item ID to workshop.txt. The item ID can be obtained from the URL
- Before the server finishes initializing, it will attempt to download all items in workshop.txt, such that custom
- content can be included in your map pool. The progress of this process will be printed to the server console, and if
- any download fails, it will be skipped and the server will continue to start.
- To upload content, you will need to use SteamCMD's workshop_build_item command. Please refer to the Steam documentation
- x. Using external remote console
- The remote console works differently than previous titles. Rcon is disabled by default, and can be configured using
- 'zmq_rcon_enable', 'zmq_rcon_ip'. 'zmq_rcon_port' and 'zmq_rcon_password'. Unlike previous titles, rcon will bind to
- the TCP port you specify, not UDP. The socket itself is a ZeroMQ socket, using CZMQ for authentication. Included with
- the server is a simple rcon client, zmq_rcon.py, written for Python 2.x. You will need to install Python CZMQ, which
- can most easily be done through 'pip install czmq' if pip is available on your system. To run the script, use something
- python zmq_rcon.py --host=tcp://127.0.0.1:27961 --password=mypass
- -----------------------
- Quake Live also exposes a ZeroMQ publish/subscribe socket that will emit a great amount of detail about the ongoing
- match, live as events occur. A basic script is included, zmq_stats_verbose.py, but it will simply print the stats events
- to screen as an example. All events emitted by the engine should be valid JSON. Any additional functionality and
- storing of stats is left as an exercise to the reader.
