Why is so difficult to find a normal DM server!?!?There are undred of minsta servers but no 1 DM server to play with svn!!!!!!
Generally it's difficoult to find a good DM server with stable version too.... :cry:

i'm a noob can you explain...what's dojo server?

The dojo server can be found via the server browser. You might simply type "dojo" in the filter, and you will easily find it. But since you ask, I assume that the dojo server is quite far away from you so that it lists waaay down somewhere with a horrible ping.

Since you mentioned a "stable" version, I assume that you use Nexuiz 2.4.2 and that this is why you do not want to join SVN servers. Furthermore, from your nickname, I assume you are using Ubuntu.

Having done all these assumptions and since more and more servers are running SVN, I recommend you to use the Nexuiz SVN version too. Check out this thread
http://forums.alientrap.local/viewtopic.php?t=3061
for how to get it to work under Ubuntu specifically. The SVN version will greatly enhance your game experience, with much better sounds and all.

Once you have set up the SVN version, any SVN DM servers will be much more fun for you to play.

Enjoy!

Why that?!?
People that know what they are doing when setting up an svn server will also provide an svn compat pack for download, then 2.4.2 users can just join fine!
BTW people that do not provide such an compat pack should just NOT host an svn server..

Well I was just thinking that people would automatically prefer to use servers of the same version and feel insecure about those SVN servers if they themselves still run 2.4.2... since Ubuntoz seemingly wanted to avoid the SVN servers. But that of course could have many other reasons as well.

Anyway - you are right.

Well there are some small incompatibilites between svn and an old 2.4.2 client, but nothing too bad, and on the other side you get a fixed antilag, fixed ati bug, nicer effects, less bandwidth usage and many more cool stuff. I'd say there is no reason to avoid those servers.. but quite some reason to pray it can soon be released :-)

I'm using the last versionon of nexuiz...updated by svn....but the server i can find are only minsta.....there aren't dm servers for svn

The dojo has a compat pack, all the NN servers do. You do not need an SVN client to play on them.

To change dojo to dm, drop the console (shift+esc) and type >> vcall public_dm
