Dedicated Server + Game

[Kalanur]

I can't launch both at a time.
I want to create a server and play with some friends on it. If I start the server first everyone can connect but I can't open the game. The same thing happens if I start the game first.

This is the error message i've got from the console.

Maybe it has something to do with Vista.

Check out this tutorial (http://www.burial-grounds.com/quakewars/e107_plugins/content/content.php?content.34) for running a server Kalanur, it might help:

A snippet from the tutorial for your specific problem:

In order to run both the client and server instances of Enemy Territory: Quake Wars on the same computer, you must add this line to the server Command Line for start up. This will enable the game to safely extract the gamex86.dll file without confilicting with other instances o the game.

+set fs_savePath "c:\a_path_for_my_server"

Again, add that line to the "Command Line Properties" option in the ET:QW Server Launcher program. Replace "a_path_..." with a folder in the root of C: such as "server".

is Command Line Properties when u press the the right mouse button and press properties? or is it in the luancher??

I couldn't put it on the command line of the server. So, I put it on the target line under properties when you right click the desktop icon, of the regular demo game.
