buckET v0.2

(bacon) #1

BuckET v0.2 will be released on Tuesday, August 3rd. It will be compiled for both windows and linux. This version requires a client-side download.
I will release a minor update sometime in the next two weeks.
After that there will not be a another release until I get my bots working on at least one stock ET map, this could take days or months.
I’m also up for suggestions for any features people want to see.

Linux servers must be running a recent version of glibc to run the mod.

If this has been fixed or is a not a requirement, I’d give the mod a run.

Number 1 server on the entire interweb? Did Al Gore get the memo?

Hey Bacon it was good to play Degeneration with you the other day! :clap: Sorry I left so soon but the hoodlum you had as your right-hand man was cheesing me off :disgust:

I’ll have to delay the release until I get the linux binaries working. Right now they give me an error when you try to load a map.

@tavington: Yeah it was fun in degen :smiley:

That’s COLONEL Tavington to you, my boy. And stand to attention when you’re spoken to.

2 demos of v0.2 are now available.
They show off some of the new features, including some level5 rewards.

Your host is redirecting all requests of the file to the referring website (this case SplashDamage). Maybe thats their protection against hotlinking. Why don’t you use pcgamemods?
Also, can someone really watch the demos without having the mod installed? Just wondering how the new features will be processed and shown, if the game doesn’t know that they even exist.

The actual demos are only until filefront posts the avi versions…

(thegnat) #10

So they’re quite useless atm? [/drunk]

(DrDeath) #11

ummm Can I have a download link

(bacon) #12

I think I have to edit my bots :smiley:

They’re far too accurate. I was testing my altered FG42 here…

BTW, vids should be up in a day or so.
