Can My Shitty Game Server run an ID Tech 3 server? Easily. So long as you remember to update the rate on client and server!

Testing the following game servers:
- Quake 3
- Star Trek Elite Force 2 (modified Quake 3 Team Arena engine)
- Return to Castle Wolfenstein (no native bot support, used the WolfBot mod)

Noting that game servers sometimes ask for CD keys but rarely, if ever, need them.

See other videos in the series for explanations on things like Steam Command and Hyper-V setup.

Quake 3 Steam ID: 2200
Return to Castle Wolfenstein Steam ID: 9010
