Don't tell me to shut up on my own website. This map isn't going on the server without it being listed unless it's exceedingly good. So I'll tell you what I'm going to do about it: laugh at the hole you've just dug, since nothing has actually been decided yet despite your little attempt at flame-fanning. Mwaha ha ha.

I think TDM is great when there are alot of people, but when the server has 6 or < then you reall run out of targets. Gwil, Knives, and myself had fun teaming up on some guy but it was like running around playing hide and seak with an RPG...

Then I have no fear that it will indeed show up, unless you are either a liar, or you are telling me that I am not a good judge of maps.

Now just go look at it.

another map, even if it never sees server time by no means its not a great map. if for no other reason people can see what new innovations are happening and maybe apply them in their own maps.

same place My Briefcase

"show all"

"maps" folder

there are currently only two in there.. sorry but my briefcase is to unreliable to fill it with maps

these two maps are fanfreakintastic, but obviously for completely different reasons.

happy fragging.

For those of us too lazy to go digging around in your briefcase, it would be handy if you mentioned the names of these maps you are suggesting. Its quite possible we already have them and therefore don't need to download them from you after all

that is the most level headed suggestion i have heard today :/

yes, i should, never thought about it really..

"Darkmatter_b2"
"Inevitable_Conflict"

the rar files are named the same, perhaps thats why i forgot.

forgive me, my mind was filled with childish retorts.. for once, not of my own making. :/

since this thread was side tracked, it seems to have died a bit. sad.

anywho's, does anyone have an approximate time for the weekend playtest to commence?

its Saturday, and it would be nice to set up some sort of a tradition "weekend weak maps" test or some such.

mayhap we could have a list posted of maps set to be tested too?

Um, I wouldn't be surprised if Gwil wasn't off getting drunk now, and I'm on 56k, so it's really up to Reno right now! I'm guessing that either we *try* to have these prearranged playtests, or just put up betas for the weekend and get the authors to start threads here and get people to comment on them...

There is now a plugin installed, the Mani admin module. Normal players initiate map votes, check the time, time left, nextmap in the cycle etc. Apologies for the menu styles, AMX style menus arent supported by HL2DM

Most of the stuff is admin based nonsense, so is unimportant for the players, but those simple commands (nextmap, votemap, timeleft etc) should now work.

Oh, and dm_swamplight_final by Finger is on the general rotation too so download it - and vote it on if you want to play it!

Forgot to note, there is also a "rank" (you need 75 frags to register on it by default) and a "top10" command too..

with the tiny thing we have on the front page to show current rotation, what are we gonna do when we get more than 6 maps?

that tiny thing is full already. perhaps a dropdown?

i cannot imagine keeping the server to so small a list. i for one am already tired of the current rotation because of its small size.

Leperous: Please assign more admins. I've seen less important servers having 10-15 admins, and a server like THE snarkpit server has only 3;And I've seldom seen them online . Must be a timezone issue I suppose. As I was saying, the server is often flooded with newbies who refuse to behave (words like d*ck, c*ck, f-*-c-k being thrown around alot) and voice spammers. One was making masturbation sounds for the love of God! So I think I speak in the name of all the decent users of this fine server, newbies and gods alike, when I request that you assign some more admins from the members that play often on the server. Other than that, the server is doing fine. However, some reported experiencing video-card issues on dm_rebar. It's very strange that only this map has these issues. It seems to occur on older geforce cards. [addsig]

Yeah the rebar problem is quite an issue, really makes it unplayable for me and quite a few others. Shame, as it really is a cool map smiley I've never run into any trouble while I've been on the server, but I have barely been on in the past couple of weeks. If problems have been occuring more frequently, then I guess it might be wise to assign more admins. I'm in IRC a lot of the time and have remote rcon control, so if you have just come from the server and there are troublemakers, gimme a shout and I'll look into it. [addsig]

*whispers to Andrei* Lep doesn't run the server Although, from now on ReNo and Leperous will be in charge. I don't feel the need for more admins, maybe 2 more at most. It's up to these guys and if they need more admins on the server - it's easy enough to add new ones (see the Mani Plugin documentation for info guys). dm_rebar will stay i'm afraid, you fiends should bite the bullet and get a decent GFX card. If you were to appoint new admins in my absence, my first recommendation is natus due to sheer amount of time he spends on the server Also, if you do see people dicking around, get screenshots, demos and most of all their Steam ID. I/We can't do a great deal without knowing the offenders details. [addsig]
