Might sound odd..but you've actually loaded the mod first right?

RA is a very tricky beast..it's picky as anything and has a habit of breaking itself for no reason (in my experience).

Yes, and it does seem a bit stubborn :)
Load mod (shortcut to fs_game arena) > RA menu screen > MP > Create > select map

At this point should I have any special RA gametypes at the bottom? I also only have a few Q3 maps available, should the RA maps be here? Are there any in the default install? Say I pick one of the first Q3DM maps, couple of bots, >Start, >then dumps me back to menu screen. Help!
 
I've got OSP and some configs around somewhere for a server tho a 'big' server might be better...

Can't make any promises but I'll try to be about.
 
Mate if you go to the trouble of making a server, you decide, anything with CTF and Im there :D

Catch me on xfire...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
I don't have xfire sorry :) I should get round to getting it sometime but I'm hideously busy at the mo..

Which brings me onto my current problem. I'm afraid I can't make it tonight. I'll def try to get a night soon though. Hope you have fun ;)
 
Cool, got canny little bunch of people in my Xfire account now :)

I'm still getting my head around all the mods etc, but my rail is getting better too :D just not at close range :( thats pretty hard !

Okay lads,
just bought us a 16 slot ventrilo server, 3 months for now just to see how it goes.

ive never run one before so its a little bit of a learning curve for me, but your all free to come and go as you please :) ( well 16 of you at a time ! )

ill buy more slots if i need to though !

my in game name is Terra Firma, the vent server is called Terra Firma
i dont have an IP yet because hotmail is being gay with their 'busy servers' :@

We are experiencing higher than normal volume and are therefore unable to service your request at this time. Try one of the following:
 
In the meantime, you're welcome to use our teamspeak server :) Usual IP:

87.194.8.32 - default port.

It's probably not as stable as your vent server, but it could be useful until you get your details (damn hotmail) :)
 
FFS just spent 3hrs trying to install Quake 3 again and it just isnt working. I see the start of the id screen (before the actual stamp) and then nothing - just freezes and eventually drops back to desktop...

Getting frustrated - tried twice now :mad:

Soz RB Customs...

Yup, my mod of choice. Might be around tonight.

Still can't get RA to work.

edit:can't work it out, but I can connect directly to your Q3:RA IP specified in this thread. So ready for any games now!

Okay,
VENTRILO server is up !!

all are welcome, as long as its quake 3 !

i will make an AFK chanel, but since its a small 16 slot server ( for now ) i may nudge AFK people out of the server to make room for others.

details are as follows,

IP: voice402.inetgaming.co.uk
Port: 4423


My name on there is Terra Firma

:D

I only ever used to play cmpa , not pld in while though
 
I quit quake3 a few months ago to play cs:s :(

Seemed to be so many people cheating on quake3 and none of the old good players play anymore.
I think the only servers that were active were the XS4ALL ones.
