MVDSV: a QuakeWorld server

MVDSV Logo

MVDSV (MultiView Demo SerVer) has been the most popular QuakeWorld server in the world for more than a decade because of its ability to record every player's point of view in a server side demo and provide many different game modes to enjoy QuakeWorld with.

Getting Started

The following instructions will help you get a MVDSV server up and running on your local machine from prebuilt binaries. Details on how to compile your own MVDSV binary will also be included to match specific architectures or for development purposes.

Supported architectures

The following architectures are fully supported by MVDSV and are available as prebuilt binaries:

  • Linux amd64 (Intel and AMD 64-bits processors)
  • Linux i686 (Intel and AMD 32-bit processors)
  • Linux aarch (ARM 64-bit processors)
  • Linux armhf (ARM 32-bit processors)
  • Windows x64 (Intel and AMD 64-bits processors)
  • Windows x86 (Intel and AMD 32-bit processors)

Prebuilt binaries

You can find the prebuilt binaries on this download page.

Prerequisites

None at the moment.

Installing

For more detailed information we suggest looking at the nQuake server, which uses MVDSV and KTX as QuakeWorld server.

Building binaries

Build from source with CMake

Assuming you have installed essential build tools and CMake

mkdir build && cmake -B build . && cmake --build build

Build artifacts would be inside build/ directory, for unix like systems it would be mvdsv.

You can also use build_cmake.sh script, it mostly suitable for cross compilation and probably useless for experienced CMake user. Some examples:

./build_cmake.sh linux-amd64

should build MVDSV for linux-amd64 platform, release version, check cross-cmake directory for all platforms

B=Debug ./build_cmake.sh linux-amd64

should build MVDSV for linux-amd64 platform with debug

V=1 B=Debug ./build_cmake.sh linux-amd64

should build MVDSV for linux-amd64 platform with debug, verbose (useful if you need validate compiler flags)

G="Unix Makefiles" ./build_cmake.sh linux-amd64

force CMake generator to be unix makefiles

./build_cmake.sh linux-amd64

build MVDSV for linux-amd64 version, you can provide any platform combinations.
