Excelent job.
Hmn & how to change proces priority to q3 service(@ startup). By default services are running @ normal prior.

The majority of people think they think, when really they just change their prejudices. Understanding is a matter of will in most cases.

Windows NT command:
start /high quake3 +set dedicated 2 +fs_game excessiveplus +exec server.cfg
Where /high can be replaced by /low, /normal and /realtime.

Also, you can change priority and (or) CPU affinity of any process by pressing CTRL-ALT-DELETE, looking up it in process tab and right clicking it.

This works only on standart proceses, not for services.

Windows will run it and treat it just like they would, for example, tcpvsc or some antivirus program.

Ir would be just another "component" of windows.

And then you can do stuff to it that you can do to other components Winking
