Re: Berlin - New server side mod

I prefer to not have changes that don't reflect on the map, such as flag radius (with the exception of base point balancing where the ticket "flashing" to indicate a bleed is not necessarily accurate). Now that we know how to add the floating points I'd be down for leaving the red a cappab...

Re: Tobruk could be a good map

I lied. It's done. And live. The spawn point is between the back base and the first row (of 2 bases) - you fall with your chute already deployed, and far enough up that you can make it to either the first row or the back base. If it doesn't work out we can a) go higher and not have the chute auto-de...

Re: Tobruk could be a good map

That's a great idea, Prop. I won't have a chance to bang on it until next week but I think I found the relevant info.

Re: Game Version?

I'm pretty sure you have all you need, although I seem to remember people having problems if they were installed out of order - you do the 1.619 then the DC .7 I think. If not, the other way around. Last time I reloaded everything went swimmingly so it's not all that fresh in my mind, sorry. Maybe s...

Re: Server kick all time since more 24hours

It's not a powertrip, it's my option. And I'm exercising it. I don't ask for your help in maintaining or running the server, nor did I ask for your opinion. If you don't like being banned, you shouldn't have teamkilled. In terms of the whims of my mood, you never even APOLOGIZED for being a jerk. Do...

Re: Banned

You were kicked EIGHT TIMES for minus score. We will allow you a ONE-TIME pass. The slate is clean. If you get yourself banned for too many minus score kicks again we will leave you on the list. That's our SOP.

Good luck.

Re: Tobruk could be a good map

Autobalance is not simply an "on" or "off" setting. It is variable, and can be adjusted to the server admin's liking. The minimum is 2, to prevent people from being switched every time they are killed. Even when configured with what might be considered a good setting, the server ...

Re: Server kick all time since more 24hours

General Nimitz,

You very intentionally teamkilled me while I was in the SA, and then immediately switched to the other team. We don't need players like you on our server.
If, and I mean IF, you are ever removed from the banlist, it will be at a time of MY choosing, not yours.

Re: Tobruk could be a good map

swanny you can solve the good players going red all the time by having auto balance always on so guys can't switch teams. They switch at the beginning of the round, as they come into the map. how about making it like the bulge where as long as blue holds a flag the tickets don't run. Then people wi...

Re: and idea or two

Auto balance IS always on - it kicks in at a difference of 3. Making it lower causes switches unnecessarily often.

Re: and idea or two

There are a couple guys we try and watch out for - if we see them it's an insta-ban. I'll see about adding some kind of notification for folks to contact us if something comes up - I think spec has some info he posted about how to get in contact if no admins are on at the time ... What I want to kno...

Re: Horrible server lag last few days

We've been having some flapping on our circuit lately, over the last few days. We have tickets in with both our long-haul and local loop carriers. When they look at it, it seems OK. They suspect our equipment, we're skeptical but looking into it. Sorry for the ups and downs, we're doing our best to ...

Re: Widescreen & BF

Playing on an LCD it makes the graphics spectacular (I can see reflections in the glass bubble of the transport helo) but it makes the text (chat and announcements) look like crap. I wonder why.

Re: Tobruk could be a good map

Babies, Exactly. Defending doesn't give you as many points but it *can* win the day. I guess it all depends on why a person plays. The bleed is set to a 50/50 scenario, as a mod to the original. Here's the deal - unless we create a new map and distribute it to everyone, we do our mods server side. T...

Re: Tobruk could be a good map

Tobruk is like Oil Fields or Battle of the Bulge except in terrain layout; Tobruk has fewer places to hide or sneak past to another base. That being said, there MUST be a commitment on blue's part to defend the base with the most strategic value, namely the back one. If they do not defend it, they w...

If you start a new local multiplayer game does the map load properly?

note that I said multiplayer, not singleplayer.

Re: I dont see the server in my game list anymore! why not??????

That's happened to me in the past - it usually shows back up after a few days.
If you filter on ea117 do you get any results?

If not, try adding it to your favorites - add server by ip:
206.173.194.111 and see if it sticks for you.
