newserv automatically finds quests in the system/quests/ directory. To install your own quests, or to use quests you've saved using the proxy's set-save-files option, just put them in that directory and name them appropriately.
Standard quest files should be named like `q###-CATEGORY-VERSION.EXT`, battle quests should be named like `b###-VERSION.EXT`, and challenge quests should be named like `c###-VERSION.EXT`. The fields in each filename are:

- `###`: quest number (this doesn't really matter; it should just be unique for the PSO version)
- `CATEGORY`: ret = Retrieval, ext = Extermination, evt = Events, shp = Shops, vr = VR, twr = Tower, gov = Government (BB only), dl = Download (these don't appear during online play), 1p = Solo (BB only)
- `VERSION`: d1 = Dreamcast v1, dc = Dreamcast v2, pc = PC, gc = GameCube Episodes 1 & 2, gc3 = Episode 3, bb = Blue Burst

There are multiple PSO quest formats out there; newserv supports most of them. It can also decode any known format to standard .bin/.dat format. Specifically:
| Format | Extension | Supported online? | Offline decode option |

| Compressed | .bin/.dat | Yes | None (1) |
| Compressed Ep3 | .bin | Download only | None (1) |

*Notes:*
1. *This is the default format. You can convert these to uncompressed format like this: `newserv --decompress-data < FILENAME.bin > FILENAME.bind`*
2. *Similar to (1), to compress an uncompressed quest file: `newserv --compress-data < FILENAME.bind > FILENAME.bin`*
3. *If you know the encryption seed (serial number), pass it in as a hex string with the `--seed=` option. If you don't know the encryption seed, newserv will find it for you, which will likely take a long time.*
Episode 3 quests consist only of a .bin file - there is no corresponding .dat file. Episode 3 .bin files can be encoded in any of the formats described above, except .qst.
Episode 3 quests consist only of a .bin file - there is no corresponding .dat file. Episode 3 quest files may be named with the .mnm extension instead of .bin, since the format is the same as the standard map files (in system/ep3/). These files can be encoded in any of the formats described above, except .qst. There are no encrypted Episode 3 GCI formats because the game doesn't encrypt quests saved to the memory card, unlike Episodes 1&2.
When newserv indexes the quests during startup, it will warn (but not fail) if any quests are corrupt or in unrecognized formats.
