Since you didn't notice it, look here (http://tjw.org/tremulous/SETUP.txt).

And just in case: Follow the direction under where it says "Windows".

Obviously.

Into the mod directory (eg. base2) or anywhere you want if you like having crazy paths in your server.cfg.

q3. whats am i supposed to do with g_admin?

Set it to the relative path from mod directory to admin.dat or you can also use absolute path.

If you had ANY prior experiance with Quake-based games and mods, these answers would be obvious.
