Title: Proxy config
Post by: w4ldf33 on July 23, 2007, 02:37:26 pm

Hi,
I'm trying to get Trem running behind a proxy for a while now, I think i need help :)

How to set the start parameters right in Linux (Ubuntu)? I'm starting with +set net_socks .... but it doesnt seems to work (Proxy Monitor doesnt show any connections.
The Startupfile of Trem looks like this:

Code: [Select]


#!/bin/sh

BINARY="/usr/lib/tremulous/tremulous"
BASE_PATH="/usr/share/games/tremulous"
QUIET=0

# Tremulous binaries don't understand "regular" command line parameters. Let's
# catch them here, to avoid accidently launching the binary.

while [ "$1" != "" ]; do {
if [ "$1" = "+set" ]; then
break;
fi
case "$1" in
-h|--help)
echo -e ${EXCUSE}
exit 0
;;
-q|--quiet)
QUIET=1
;;
esac
shift
}; done

# Ready to rumble!

if [ ${QUIET} -eq 1 ]; then
exec ${BINARY} +set fs_basepath ${BASE_PATH} +set ttycon 0 $* >/dev/null 2>&1
else
exec ${BINARY} +set fs_basepath ${BASE_PATH} $*
fi

exit $?

Maybe i have to put the params here? but where and how? ;)
OR: How to get it running on windows XP? Tried with Sockscap and with the start Parameters ... Sockscap shows some connection in the Monitor but I cant get the serverlist.
With the start params I cant get a list, too. But I can refresh servers added by hand, but connecting stops @ awating gamestand.

COmputer Info:

OS: Ubuntu Studio / Windows XP Prof SP2
CPU: AMD Sempron 3000+
RAM: 1GB NoName
Proxy: Jana Server
Internet: ISDN

Why?
Proxies add lag, and unless its on your lan, it will make the game unplayable.

+5 (And a proxy in your lan adds lag too  :roll: )
