Hey Guys,
Just posting to inform everyone that the server is now running with no problems at all (since we ditched that sound mod with all those silly errors) and that although we are only running stock maps for now it's still highly enjoyable with just having the Rifle-Only mod running.
Some things that have been changed though....
Firstly, the Mustard Gas mod is now seperate from the rest..which means we can remove it if we fancy.
Secondly, mines are now back on the maps. I've made it so it works randonly and the mines disappear now.
Thirdly..is the fantastic work around of people picking any other weapon on our server (like the STG for example) and having nothing when they join, except a pistol. It isn't anything too fancy..but gives a player a random allowed weapon, either allied or axis.
While I remember the Time-Alive is back on and running for those that miss that feature.
For those that love Custom maps and are wondering when we will get them back..all I can say is "yes" they will be brought back at some time in the future.
As for the BT maps running on our server the same rule applies. Except they are on the server but have been disabled from the rotation for the time being. Voting is still on for them if anyone fancies playing on one at anytime. Just make sure you have our BT mappack in your Mainta folder.
The last thing I want to mention is the Survivor mod (made by Elgan) which basically gives a set amount of lives to each player. In FFA mode the player has to be careful not to lose all his/her lives or you stay dead (like in objective) until the round is over. The last player standing gets a victory celebration at the end - which is brilliant to watch. We will from time to time run this as a variation of our popular LAN battles.
There may be other things I've missed but I can't think of any at the moment.
