The Lan Party

Ten-Minute Quick-Setup


This WILL only take about 10 mins to read and setup. If you can follow instructions, you'll be up and running in 10 minutes GUARANTEED. If not, let me know... you got a prize coming.

Basic Info
The objective of Headhunters is very simple.


Server Setup
This section ASSUMES several things. If these assumptions don't really apply to you, then try to fill in the gap and then check the rest of the instructions afterwards.


Having said that, the rest of this will get you up and running Quickly(tm) with HeadHunters for maximum frag-time. Reading the ENTIRE hh250manual.htmlwill tell you a lot more, and give up other settings and the like. . . BUT... right now I know you just want to cap some heads, so here you go.

  1. Make sure HeadHunters is installed. If not, check out Setup in the manual
  2. Default config files for BOTH hhctf and hhdm are in the pak file and are used by default. They are named hhserver.cfg and hhctfserver.cfg You can extract them if you'd like to make changes, or create your own to use.
  3. In the quake2/HH dir, you will find 2 batch files. . . one for starting Straight HH, the other for HHctf. Directory structure is not really relevant, as it just goes straight to the parent and runs q2 as a 'Listen Server' for other players to join.
  4. At the console type set hostname "whatever you wanna call it HeadHunters server" so people can tell your server from all the others.
That's it. . . No really. . .
 

Client Setup
There's nothing extremely special that you need to jump on a HH / HHctf server, but it helps to know the following info.

Seriously. . . there really is nothing else.
 

Other Stuff
If you installed GameCam, and you have the inkling, make a couple of demos and send em my way and I'll put the best of em up on the HH page. GameCam spectator modes are the absolute best way to view ANY game
 

Ok now go frag.
