How To Add Admins To Your Quake Live Server

Managing player permissions—including granting administrative privileges or banning players—is essential for maintaining a healthy gaming environment. Quake Live uses a file called access.txt to handle player permissions.

  1. Access the Game Host Bros Panel.
  2. Click on your Quake Live server.
  3. In the sidebar click on Management > File Manager.
  4. Select the baseq3 folder.
  5. Here, find the file named access.txt.
  6. Add a new entry on its own line and follow the format: steamid|(mod|admin|ban) For example: 76561198072786081|ban.
  7. Type /reload_access to make the changes live.
