Rocket Arena 2 Server Files for Win32, Linux, Alpha, Irix, and Solaris platforms. Client pak is required.
-------------------------
Installation Instructions
-------------------------
This is the server package for Rocket Arena 2. You will also need the client pak (a seperate download) installed on the server. Download it and install according to the included instructions. Please note that on Unix machines you may need to rename the client EXE file to a ZIP file and unzip it manually.
Extract all of the files to your \\quake2\\arena directory.
You can put the raserver.bat in your \\quake2 directory.
Customize the server.cfg to your tastes. It includes the admincode (see below) which will allow for in-game configuration of the mod. Please change this code!
Please see below for info on the arena.cfg file, used to customize settings on a per server/per level/per arena basis. It includes map rotation information as well.
Customize the raserver.bat file if needed as well (maxclients, etc).
If you want to run a listen server (i.e. you play, and others play with you) then change the +set dedicated 1 in the raserver.bat to +set dedicated 0.
You can edit the "motd.txt" file to display a message to connecting clients. See the included one for line size information.

IMPORTANT!!!
**************************
The default settings in server.cfg include:
set public 1
setmaster q2master.planetquake.com
set logfile 2
set netlog ripper.planetquake.com:21998
The first two lines publish your server on the PlanetQuake master list so that people can see it in GameSpy. If you don't want your server to be public, set public 0 and remove the setmaster line.
The second two lines enable net logging. See below for net logging info. If you are running on a LAN and not connected to the Internet, REMOVE THESE LINES!!
If the server crashes after the first frag, then it is having trouble sending the net logging info and you should turn net logging off.
