I'm writings a games frontend for a LAN that dowloads the game from the
server than execuets it. The problem is with connecting to multiplayer
in quake. It works find when the line is typed in dos, you can connect,
but when I use system(), spawn*(), or exec*() it connects than your
dropped. So I'm thinking there might be some eviroment varibales, or
something??? If anyone can give me anything it would be VERY much
appriciated.
