This article is going to aim on quickly starting up a game server within Zandronum's default server browser, Doomseeker. Without any delays - lets begin!

[Video Demonstration]

General

Here, we're going to setup some of the essentials of the game server. Below is what is going to be used on our game server:

What the 'General' tap should appear

Engine: Zandronum

Executable: Be sure that this is already setup, otherwise - skip this.

Server Name: My First Personal Game Server

Port: Skip it unless necessary

Game Mode: Duel

Map: MAP09

IWAD: Doom2.wad

Additional WADs and files: Skip this, we will just use the IWAD stock maps.

Broadcast to LAN: Select this if you wish to broadcast the gameserver within the LAN network.

Broadcast to Master: Select this if you wish to broadcast the gameserver openly.

Rules

What the 'Rules' tap should appear

Map list

Add this to the list:

MAP09

This way, once the duel round is over, the game server will not change the maps.

Difficulty: 5 - Nightmare!

Modifiers: Buckshot

Max. Clients: 8

Max. Players: 2

Max. Lives: 0

Miscellaneous

What the 'Miscellaneous' tap should appear

URL: Leave this blank.

E-mail: Leave this blank.

Connect password: Leave this blank.

Join Password: Leave this blank.

RCon password: Leave this blank.

MOTD or Message of the Day: My first simple game server!

DMFlags

What the 'DMFlags' tap should appear

Check the following that is listed below:

Weapons Remain after pickup
Spawn players as far as possible
Automatically respawn dead players
Kill anyone who tries to exit the level
No monsters
Items other than invuln. and invis. respawn
No jumping
No crouching

Start the game server

There is tabs such as DMFlags2, Compat. Flags, and Custom parameters, however - in this tutorial we will need not to worry about them for now. Thus, all that must be done now - is to start the game server by clicking the 'Start server'!

Use various settings!

This guide is simply a 'quick start' and we purposely left off many cool tricks. However, always feel free to be adventurous when setting up a new server, for example, survival invasion.
