Humiliation! Introducing q3a.skull.moe - A Quake 3 Arena Server

That's right. Thanks to the power of Linux and ioquake3, It's time to frag like its 1999 again! Hosted by yours truly, come join me and others for the real competitive shooter.

logon with q3a.skull.moe:27960
password: fraglikeits99

If you have requests for maps/mods/custom maps, feel free to post them here! I'm open to your feedback.

NOTE: While it is not required to use ioquake3 to play on the sever, it is HIGHLY recommended you do so. You can get it here: https://ioquake3.org/
And of course, you still need a legitimate copy of the game. As of writing this post, it is 60% off on GOG! https://www.gog.com/en/game/quake_iii_arena

UPDATE: I have found a solution to on screen weapon placement using high FOVs. Download and install this mod to your quake 3 arena folder: https://clover.moe/flexible-hud-for-ioq3/

Copy and paste this code into your console, using whatever FOV you prefer. I use 110.

Code: Select all

cg_stretch 0; cg_fovAspectAdjust 1; cg_fovGunAdjust 1; cg_fov 110;

Now that the server allows clientside mods "sv_pure 0" I have set a password on the server to discourage cheating. I don't expect anyone here will do that, but I have set one anyway. The server password is:

Code: Select all

fraglikeits99
open console and type

Code: Select all

 /password fraglikeits99
when you are connecting. You can also use

Code: Select all

connect q3a.skull.moe
with it instead of using the specific button.
I have also listed it in the primary post. Enjoy.
