Copy menu.dat to data folder. You need to place your new darkplaces/nexuiz.exe into the main folder.

i tin if i want to compile and run the engine i need the nexuiz/trunk/ folder , but i try to use the tortoiseSVN to donwload the folder but i cant it said: Repository moved permanently to '/nexuiz/trunk/'; please relocate'. from shaggy tutorial, i tin if we need to add the pop we don use darkplace at all instead we need to compile gamecode in qcsrc/

Wondering whether i am right or not =.=' :D

If you wrote in more readable sentences, then the answer would probably yes. As I said you need to modify qcsrc/menu/... files.

There is one thing as authenticating inside menu only and way other server side authentification,

That feature really isn't a good idea.

If servers can be password protected, many will be, but still appear in the public server list. That would be really annoying, as most players simply don't have the password for these servers. Just try to join a server in UT99, you'll see what I mean. A high percentage of them is password protected, making it really hard to find a server that is NOT passworded.

The only way such a feature could get in is if it ensures that password protected servers never are entered into the public server list - that is, if the code ensures that sv_public is never 1.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again

You can vary the number of "MS", so you can clearly see it's MS which is causing it.

There could be an even better solution by auto filtering (show or not) the password protected servers. Naming a server "go to #mine_friendly_server channel and ask for invite" isn't a bad idea and would remove the amount of tk'ers and spammers incredibly in that particular server.

No.

Sure, that was the intention in case of UT too. But too often that info doesn't get updated, or it was never shown who to ask, or even clan servers.

No, either make your servers public, or don't. Password protected servers are not public BY DEFINITION.

However, it now is possible to enter servers as favorites, so you can put your private servers (that might be protected) into the server list that way.
1. Open Notepad
2. Paste: ÿþMSMSMS
3. Save
4. Open the file in Notepad again
