Hello there.

Could anyone tell me how to disable autojoin and enable spectators

on the server?

If while playing I'd like to spectate [Esc->START->SPECTATE] the server forcibly join me to the team previously played in half a second.

cvars in .cfg (and server console) are:

g_teamAutoJoin = 0;

g_teamForceBalance = 0;

Thank's.

Thank you.

But what about force join in TDM, or CTF mode? How to disable it?

g_teamAutoJoin "0"

As I wrote above - g_teamAutoJoin is 0 , but players automatically join to the weaker team =/

Make sure you used 'set' or 'sets' before the cmd in the server cfg

Type /speconly and you will stay in spectator mode. Type the command again to disable the speconly mode.

What means "before the cmd" ? I have dedicated_server.bat with

start quake3.exe 
+set sv_pure 0 
+set fs_game excessiveplus 
+set vm_game 2 
+set vm_ui 2
+set vm_cgame 2 
+set dedicated 2 
+exec server.cfg 

and in the server.cfg :

set g_teamautojoin              "0"
set g_teamforcebalance          "0"
set xp_teamBalance              "0"

In OSP mode player become spectator before joining the game, in e+ - not =(
btw, Is typing in console /speconly or /away the only way to become spectator?PS. I'm using e+ 2.2b.
