| In order to get Quakeworld up and running firstly get the modern Quake Client Package. It contains a newly developed QW Client (EzQuake) with all required crosshairs, conchars, configs in a nice package. Also contains an older client fuhquake which I still use.
http://fquake.sourceforge.net/
Once you have the package installed you will need to configure the beast. Now this can/might take a while as QW is highly customizable. There are many sample configs about the place. The EzQuake client comes with documentation so you can see what you can/want to configure. Then if you have further questions or need help you should go to the following advanced configuration forum:
http://quakeworld.nu/forum/viewforum.php?id=10
Okay so you have the client and its all nicely configured. Where are the servers?
Well the Irish servers are as follows:
games1.iol.ie:28401
blinky.games.dcu.ie:27022
Also you can view all worldwide qw servers/players on an easy to use website as follows:
www.quakeservers.net
Also to arrange games or find out whats going on you should get on irc.
Firstly download an IRC client such as mirc
http://www.mirc.com/
Start it up and connect to the main IRC network for Quakeworld players
http://www.quakenet.org
Once you are connected then join the irish chat channels by typing:
/join #qw.ie
/join #tayto
/join #quake.ie
And now you are all set to go.
