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

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.
