Ceriux, before you read on, I need to know if you have the original Vanilla quakec source code, OR if you are looking from a mod source code, like, runequake?

================================================== ========

So it says to add CheckMOTD (); in PlayerPostThink () that you have already found, RIGHT AFTER the CheckPowerups (); line (which is at the end of PlayerPostThink ())

So to show you exactly what the above means look at the end of the PlayerPostThink function:

void ()
PlayerPostThink =
{
	local	float	mspeed, aspeed;
	local	float	r;

	if (self.view_ofs == '0 0 0')
		return;		// intermission or finale
	if (self.deadflag)
		return;
		
	// do weapon stuff
	W_WeaponFrame ();

	// check to see if player landed and play landing sound	
	if ((self.jump_flag < -300) && (self.flags & FL_ONGROUND) && (self.health > 0))
		{
		if (self.watertype == CONTENT_WATER)
			sound (self, CHAN_BODY, "player/h2ojump.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM);
		else if (self.jump_flag < -650)
			{
			T_Damage (self, world, world, 5); 
			sound (self, CHAN_VOICE, "player/land2.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM);
			self.deathtype = "falling";
			}
		else
			sound (self, CHAN_VOICE, "player/land.wav", 1, ATTN_NORM);

		self.jump_flag = 0;
		}

	if (!(self.flags & FL_ONGROUND))
		self.jump_flag = self.velocity_z;

	CheckPowerups ();
	CheckMOTD (); // <------------------- It goes here like this

};
