It seems that whenever I click "Find Servers", and when i join a game, the game mode is automatically selected for the server, before I even join.
Yes, it's a server variable. You, as a client, can't change it.
when I click on the "games" tag on the create server window, it comes up as a blank window...
Yes, this is still in a beta stage :)
How can I change the game mode on my own server?
1/ Have a look at the "Community Help" (http://forums.goldeneyesource.com/index.php/board,39.0.html) sub forum.
2/ Read the sticky: "Search the wiki first".
3/ wiki (http://dev.goldeneyesource.com/wiki/index.php/Main_Page).
4/ Use the handy fellow Search Function with GameMode (http://dev.goldeneyesource.com/wiki/index.php/Special:Search?search=gamemode&go=Go), for example.
5/ Click on the #5 result: Server Commands (http://dev.goldeneyesource.com/wiki/index.php/Server_Commands).
