Sauerbraten Server setup
From Hackerspace Brussels
|
We'll be trying out all the different stuff (and see where we get):
- setting up the server (I think I would go for the hopmod modification)
- maybe creating a custom environment... (wouldn't it be fun to actually have the space as our shooting ground?)
- have a go at shooting at each other.
- have a go at the fridge, killing a Club-Mate
Here's some links to start off with:
Having a Sauerbraten server running (just the basics)[edit]
- Install Sauerbraten (find it in your repo's)
- Running Sauerbraten as a server (open a terminal window)
- sauerbraten -d
- Here I see where my configuration file is located:
- Location: (hidden folder): ~/.sauerbraten/
Voila, you have a local server running on your IP! (now that was easy, wasn't it?)
Getting ready to also install HopMod, to have some improved features on the server (using Ubuntu here)[edit]
- resolving dependencies
- sudo apt-get install binutils build-essential cmake g++ gcc libgeoip-dev libsqlite3-dev libzip-dev make subversion sqlite3
- going to the folder where I save my source files
- cd ~/src/
- putting the latest version of HopMod on the computer
- svn checkout http://hopmod.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/ hopmod
- compiling it from source
- mkdir release-build
- cd release-build
- cmake ..
- make
- make install
- configuring the conf file
- can be found here ~/src/hopmod/conf/servers
- added an admin password
- changed game mode to whatever you want (in my case: "coop edit" to create a custom map)
- have a look to the server backend
- http://localhost:28788/admin (localhost or IP address of the Hopmod server)
... so the next this is to create a custom map and be able to save it.[edit]
- Here are the basics: http://sauerbraten.org/docs/editing.html
- Designed your own hackerspace? (or another cool map?) Share it!
