Pack what into? Server? Map?

im packing my map into a .pk3 and i want to know if it will work on 2.55 cuz ive only tested it one 2.60b

(th0rn3) #5

Yes, it will work

ET 2.55 maps are .pk3 files as well… Why wouldn’t it work?

Pack it into a pk3, then try it. Best way to find out. I think I read someplace of something in the map script that 2.60 supports but not 2.55. But packed or not won’t make that a diff anyway.

Well I never used 2.55, only started mapping when 2.60b was out for a long time already. Anyway; I have read some topics on the forum here that claim that the game crashes if your mapcoords aren’t correct in 2.55. Just reinstall ET on another directory, don’t patch it and test it out :slight_smile:

EDIT : Btw you should update your server to 2.60 b :smiley:

2.55 has its charms, as well :wink:

Like what? Better cheating?

I have never experienced such a behavior on 2.55. No, in my opinion, 2.55 has much more of a “chill”, cosy factor. 2.60 stresses people out :smiley:

2.60b is mapper friendly and I wont go further in this ET version fight, which will allways happen…

(Manwhore) #13

This ain’t a fight, this is a matter of preference.

De gustibus…

never understand why people play unstable versions when there is a stable one…

'Cause they haven’t experienced anything unstable about 2.55.
