Q. My server.bat always says "connected, but i couldnt ping you!"

A. ... ... !!! ???

3.

#1: a bunch of answers

1. This is definitely security-related. Before I locked-down my XP PC, I could run a server OK, but now I've implemented all the recommended security and closed all my ports, I can't. It probably possible, by opening the specific port(s) required, but I haven't got the time/can't be arsed to do it.

2. Maybe sometimes you really ARE standing right in front of a wall ;)

Seriously, it has never been reported to happen like this and, as it's an ATI-specific driver bug, it seems unlikely that it should only be occaisionally...

3. I don't know. Can't be more honest than that :)

Yes, Anim8or works!

just make your model than export it as a 3ds and the run it through this prog http://www.quake2.com/modeling/q2modeller/files/q2mdlr83.zip to get an md2. Of course, it it isnt that simple, but it works
