1) On your computer it should only show in LAN, but on other computers it should be in Internet, unless you have a router/firewall, then you need to port forward. And yes, follow the Quake 3 guide on portforward.com.
2) Add the line

Code: [Select]

set g_mapConfigs "folder". Then make a folder in Tremulous\base called folder. In the \folder, make a file called default.cfg. Inside there, in your case, add

Code: [Select]

set g_alienbuildpoints 1000
set g_humanbuildpoints 1000
set g_alienstage 2
set g_humanstage 23) Sorry can't help you with that.

3) Sorry can't help you with that.

You have other guid, maybe reinstallation. OK, run server, connect with client to game and disconnect. Then look in to console shell, and near you colliding nick and ip is writed guid. The old guid in "admin.dat" under that colliding admin name rewrite with this new. Connect with client and admin name to game and done!

I think UBP equals 999, not 1000. You may have exceeded the max number of digits expected or something.

Also, I would lower the maxping to like 500 or even lower.

I'd say even more like 250...

We had it around 350, just in case someone joins and everybody spikes, so people who are at around 250 don't get dumped everytime some 999er joins. I believe that you want a little overhead in this parameter above the value you would like to see as the max player ping, otherwise ppl at that ping get tossed if the server has issues, and you end up more with people around 180 (because somebody three time zones away tried to join on dialup). To not screw ppl at 250, we had to set it higher. Or such was my experience with it. (I had friends in the Midwest trying to join a twelve-slot server on the West Coast, and some "spiky lag" issues, according to one or two, so we raised that a bit and less ppl got randomly booted).

player1: ping is only checked against maxPing when you join - if you get in then your ping triples then the server doesn't mind. Unlimited BP is about 12000 - it's impossible to use much more than that, even if you fill the map with hives and boosters.
