Weird question time.

Is there an easy way to set up a temporary small private server? I have a friend who's bad at FPSes, and just wants to goof around with me a little.

If EP is not fixing it up, you're more than welcome to use our MotK server for whatever you want.

That might work. Does it have bots enabled?

if you still don't have autoexec (which i think it's impossible), you can copy a cfg of anyone and rename that to autoexec, then paste the script in, and follow the instructions written in the cfg.

Doing the impossible is my business. *ahem* :fail:

*installs the high-fps config*

...

:* :* :* :* :*

OH MY GOD YES! The game runs at about 40+ fps constantly, never dropping below 20 even in intense battles with lots of people! Instead of missing 19 out of 20 shots with the scattergun and constantly running into things, I am able top scoreboards as Scout again! :]

Thank you guys so much!

And I don't find the game that ugly this way, actually. Still looks several times better than say, CS 1.6 or Unreal Tournament. :V
The only problems are that water gets checkerboarded and that I can't seem to see pyroland textures on the ground (though I still see the weapons and effects). But that is a minor price to pay for, well, you know, playability.

I heard there may be a get-together later on? If it's not too late (lol timezones), I think I'll join. I need to prove that I can do things besides placing mini-sentries. :V

2 bots are on by default to keep the map rotating. But if you have 2 or more players on they will be removed automatically.

That was yesterday I think. If we we're having another one today I must've missed that info :V
Also if anyone wants a scorch shot I'm trying to sell it off for 8 small ash piles or 2 of the bigger ones.

I'll totally buy that off of you.

Sorry, sold already. :V

You may be undervaluing ash piles; I've had people trying to buy mine for 2 scrap.

Yeah

I'll be perfectly honest, I know it's nice to meet, but I kinda want to, y'know, actually play :V

DX7.EP · « **Reply #249 on:** June 30, 2012, 11:03:38 PM »

Do we actually play in the meets? Almost always no - instead we practice :V-logic, test upcoming bosses for FF2, and spam commands in console.
Does it really matter? To me it doesn't, since so long as we get together and enjoy ourselves everything goes well.

Probably won't come to this one, or if I do it'll be to watch over the server status.

Only time when we're serious is when there's serious stuff going on.

Like burning the donation box. We got our asses kicked, and we were pretty serious.

What do you mean the new rocket launcher is more inaccurate? I can't seem to miss

You are welcome!

Pyroland gets disabled because you're technically running the game at Direct X 8. Pyroland needs a minimum of DirectX9 for it to show.

Not that it matters. I seem to have gotten a hatred of pyroland. Just me though.

Wait, there's a meet. WHEN

DX7.EP · « **Reply #255 on:** July 01, 2012, 02:42:10 AM »

There was a Doomsday part 2 meet planned today but only Frey showed up briefly.

Next meet'll be announced in the server thread, probably mid-late next month.

And yeah, I noticed the no pyroland since I run in DirectX 8. Kinda disappointing.

Yeah.

DX9 users can actually disable the Pyroland shaders or even force them for maps where it isn't supported. Inside the GCF there's a file (tf/cfg/mtp.cfg) that looks like this:

Code: [Select]

"VisionFilterShadersMapWhitelist"
{
	"arena_badlands.bsp"	"1"
	"ctf_2fort.bsp"		"1"
	"cp_badlands.bsp"	"1"
	"cp_dustbowl.bsp"	"1"
	"cp_gravelpit.bsp"	"1"
	"koth_badlands.bsp"	"1"
	"koth_viaduct.bsp"	"1"
	"plr_hightower.bsp"	"1"
	"pl_badwater.bsp"	"1"
	"pl_goldrush.bsp"	"1"
	"sd_doomsday.bsp"	"1"
}

Setting them to 0 should disable the shader, or you can add a new map to the list to force it on. For instance...

It's pretty simple. Overloading the rocket launcher causes a backfire, which can be used to rocket jump. All you have to do is keep holding it and you'll continually overload, resulting in continuous rocket jumping.

That's the obvious part.

The part you may have missed is the kill feed.

Spoiler:

In other news, randomly replaced the Detonator model with the Crossbow. I might just stick with this, it fits on the Pyro perfectly. Still need to fix the viewmodel though...

Iryan · « **Reply #260 on:** July 01, 2012, 06:07:34 AM »

...well, if anything happened, I fell asleep before it did. The plan was to get a bit of sleep at around 12 so that I would be slightly refreshed at 2 am (i.e. 8pm for you guys), but didn't hear the alarm, apparently. Welp-
