Adding Steam Workshop Mods to Your Quake Live Server
Install Steam Workshop mods like custom sounds and skins on your Quake Live dedicated server.
Since Quake Live doesn't support FastDL, you are required to use the Steam Workshop for downloading custom content. The benefit of this is your server and players will always have the same content.
For this example, we will be adding this killstreak sound mod to our server: Workshop Mod
Enable MinQLX
Access the XGamingServer Panel and select your Quake Live server. Make sure MinQLX is installed on your server using our Install Plugins guide.
Add Workshop IDs to workshop.txt
In the sidebar click on Files. Select the baseq3 folder. Open the workshop.txt file and add your workshop IDs to the bottom of the file. This downloads the mods to the server itself.
Add Workshop References to server.cfg
Open server.cfg and add the line set qlx_workshopReferences 701783942 to the bottom of the file (replace the ID with your own). This forces the client to download the workshop mods.
Restart Your Server
Restart your server.
If you want to add multiple workshop mods, you MUST add all the IDs to the workshop.txt file (one ID each line) and to the server.cfg qlx_workshopReferences line (comma separated).
