Hello everyone.
I want to create a dedicated server for 1.2 cause I don't see much low ping servers other than official.(i live in Southern California).
I need help on what files to download and how to get it running with the latest gpp trem ded please.
Also some advice on how to become a featured server is appreciated.
thanks!

Hi!
I did set up a basic tremulous 1.2 linux server on our debian lenny root server a while ago. After I got it up and running I noticed that there are almost more 1.2 servers than players, so I decided to wait till the final release of 1.2 to tweak all my config files, so I can't help you with that.
Anyway here are some pointers to get started:
I couldn't find a comprehensive 1.2 server guide, so I used these guides:
http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=m6294hlh475f8q8gq4kbisfnq7&topic=3586.0 (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?PHPSESSID=m6294hlh475f8q8gq4kbisfnq7&topic=3586.0)
http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=8707.0 (http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=8707.0)
If I remember correctly you need a 1.1 install and than patch it with the gpp version from here:
http://tremulous.net/files/ (http://tremulous.net/files/)
I then used this bash script with screen to test my server.
#!/bin/bash
screen -d -m -S nobody /opt/tremulous/tremded-gpp.x86_64 +set dedicated 2 +exec server.cfg
screen -list
I hope that was helpful. I would also be interested in some good sample 1.2 config files for a dedicated server, to tweak mine a bit.
EDIT: Almost forgot: I had to add a rule to our ipfilter firewall to allow connections to tremded
