The beautiful guide on making a QVM on Windows!

It's an OK "guide" but it needs more, and better organization, IMO before people can really start using it as such.

Seriously, Foe, you already knew that I have my own server... you could've asked me to set up a subdomain for you! However, I recommend Sourceforge or Google Code because my SVN doesn't integrate with everything else like the big guys' do.

As to modded Tremulous, yeah, it's "another horrible balance change" but I've been an X regular for months now. It's fun and it's a good community, even if it isn't pure Trem, and sometimes it's exciting to break away from the norm and go play with really beefed-up classes and weapons. In the meantime, my dretching on pure servers has most certainly suffered as a result, haha. At any rate, it's really fun to figure out ways to code really weird never-before-attempted functionality into Trem, even if it isn't practical; Spectator has actually set up a server dedicated to this purpose, and it changes on a whim when one of the devs decide to try out something new. Sex is X's resident modder who implements the really crazy changes, and they are interesting, albeit not something you'll want to play full-time.

just replace the qvm and change map using !map atcs or !devmap atcs
Really? And is any difference between !map atcs and continuing in rotation? Because when I changed qvm, then server was often hanged up while tryed load new map.

Er... then your QVM has issues of its own that you need to fix. All mapchanges are the same, and they'll load the current QVM anew, whether it's rcon map, !map, or maprotation.cfg.

Thanks SlackerLinux! Never thought it would be so simple

The server reloads the QVM on a map change, much faster than shutting down the server and restarting it...

I have fixed a little problem with the MSYS compiling issue of MSYS loading and closing, I fixed that, edited it so its more simpler. The file download i placed on the guide is damaged, use the new link. Also, I am very Anonomous on tremulous. So if your planning on tracking me, good luck.

Well, atleast on my linux server it is not true. I uploaded new qvm, then !map atcs. Server crashed. But was still in running processes and blocked port. I finally killed him with some commandline commands. Then I started server again (nothing was changed) and all was ok, no crash, no bugs. Now I allways uploading new qvm, shutdown server, start server and all is ok.

On my computer with windows xp I can use !map atcs and all is ok.

Updated! Please lock and stick.

Maybe a tutorial on modding the X stuffs would be better posted on the X forums?
