A few Questions

(Crimson13) #1

Alright, I run a fairly popular 48 player Shrub server that’s full most nights.
What i’m looking for is some information:

  1. does anyone know how to run 2 mods at once so I can run something in conjunction with Shrub, pretty much for bugfix reasons.
  2. does anyone know a mod that incorporates the bug fixes listed at http://games.chruker.dk/enemy_territory/modding_project_bugfix.php

Or as a last resort, does anyone know a mod that has a shrubbot type admin system, double-jump, and these fixes?

I’m a fairly competent programmer and could easily add these to shrub’s source if it was available, but sadly when i email him i got no response.

You can’t. It’d be really nice if you could, but the way gamecode is used in ET makes it impossible for two independent mods to run at the same time.

etpro fixes all of those except 002, which we know about and have decided not to fix at this time.

You can get shrubbot-esque admin system with etadmin_mod (which is an external program.) I don’t know of any other mods with double jump, but you can likely get the bugfixes listed implemented in any of the actively maintained mods by pointing the mod author(s) at the URL you provided.

Double jumping probably wouldn’t be terribly difficult to add, if you want to take that route.

:slight_smile: We tried running etpro with etadmin_mod, and while etadmin_mod works well when it works, most of the time it just didn’t work without being stopped and restarted every half hour, which just isn’t the kind of reliability i’m looking for. I also had most of my player base drift away during that little ETPro stretch, and though I prefer ETPro myself, i do have to pander to my players whims.

ETpro also pissed off a bunch of us that like the server :wink:

Did you try contacting the author ? He seems to frequent the etpro forums.
