Has anyone here happened to set up a Quake *2* server under FreeBSD? Yes. I'm running Quake2 3.20 for Linux (with various mods, mostly LMCTF 5.2 TE) under FreeBSD 3.1-RELEASE. Also have Q3Arena Test for Linux running. Both were pretty easy to set up, and I'm extremely new to FreeBSD. (As in, I just installed it last Saturday). My hardware is nothing to brag about (P120/64MB) but works well. Players tell me it's faster than the K6-233/128MB NT4 server I used before. Seems to me the only weird thing I had to in order to get it working was to copy the contents of the quake2/lib dir into /compat/linux/lib. That's quite possibly a dumb newbie thing to do, but it worked.
