SUPER-AWESOME MINI LIVE:

What is this?

This is the work-in-progress website of the :F server family and mod for the Q3 clone game called OpenArena and for Quake 3 itself. The server is located in Frankfurt with a superb low latency connection for european players. It runs a mod called failmod with some features in the beginning to enhance and make the casual pub baseOA CTF gameplay playable, but later - as it grew and temporarily resurrected the otherwise dead game as a sideeffect - received some competitive features too, to play higher quality games.

The mod is based on version 0.8.1 (the one-and-only-true-version) of OA, running on a modded 0.8.8 engine, with a modded vm and an autodownloadable clientside vm, + equipped with a sophisticated featurerich adminscript.

Always stay up to date! Latest news:
2023-11-24 NEWS:
If you like Q3 join :F gen2 with a Q3 client! It's Q3 and OA at the same time.





Maybe you have to repeat these a few times until you finally manage to join:
(Do not worry about client/server game mismatch, when you download the mod it will be gone)
/cl_allowDownload 1
/reconnect
/cl_allowDownload 1
/reconnect

Important: Read the motd upon connecting. Set /cg_motdtime 600 (10 minutes) if you are a slow reader.

If you want bright pm major for teammate and bright pm sarge for enemy like you normally do on genius, you must set these:
Enter them very carefully, letter by letter. Doublecheck the cvars and the values.

/cg_enemyAlwaysgreen 0
/cg_forceModel 1
/cg_enemyModel sarge/pm
/cg_teamModel oamajor/pm

Notice, it's oamajor/pm, NOT major/pm anymore. Since Q3 support Major refers to Q3's Major. As an OA player you don't have that model, you would see missing textures. Openarena Major's new name became oamajor.
Notice, cvars and values do NOT have '=' between them.
Notice, there is only one space in each line. between the cvar and the value.
Was it really that hard?

(Bonus: No more screen shaking when receiving damage)

The rail trail shaders have some known issues, use /cg_railStyle 7 until it is fixed.

"It became laggy, too much shit is going on on the server"
No. The server does not run 2 separate vms (and even if it would, so what?). It's (almost) the same old vm with different client-side assets. In fact getting rid of screenshaking and choosing someone with a soothing asmr-ish yet powerful and confident sound as a model made it feel extremely super-smooth. Just try it!
2023-09-30 NEWS:

The stat page became buggy since i've added gen#2 in a rush, will sort out later. Apologies for the inconvenience.


update: The links are clickable now. (Not yet directly from the rating page though)
2023-01-09 NEWS:
As you've already noticed stupidctf.tk does not resolve anymore :/

Do not worry, here's a Catch-22 temporary quick fix you could use:

echo "165.227.171.108 stupidctf.tk" | sudo tee -a /etc/hosts

Have you ever wondered?

"Why am I capturing and fragging that much each day when at the end of the month all my stats just disappear and I'm back to square one again?"

Good news: Eventually it turned out all your efforts, your frags&flags wasn't in vain. Go to GENIUS SPECIAL stats page to see your stats for each year and even for server lifetime!

Track your progress, notice your improvement year by year, be it accuracy, k/d, captures, or anything! Or the opposite, realize how unmotivated, burned out and old you became not only by feeling but through the raw cold numbers.

Even better when you compare yours to your mates' (no homo)! No clickable public profiles (yet?), you have to take a screenshot and post it to your clan's discord channel.
No clan yet? Find or found one!

Notice: Yearly special stats are only for genius server. Stats were reset during switching host somewhere during 2017 iirc.


Note: Your qkey file is your key to your stats!
You can delete cookies, change IP or even delete the game itself until your qkey file is safe you will be recognized again and you will regain all your past games and stats!
Make sure you always have a copy of that file in a safe place! Upon reinstalling the game copy your old qkey to the new location if you want to keep your stats!
