Eastfront Alpha Release

(shagileo) #21

whahaha I love that music :smiley: (whaha crying from laughing it has a good beatā€¦ but the lyrics do spoil the song a bit, maybe remove those :rolleyes: )

(shagileo) #22

Hey Tyrlop,

well I tested it on your 2.60b server, but I get kicked evertime by PB (even after setting the correct Hunkmegs => see screenshot)

  • Thereā€™s a little scripting/mapping problem in Leningrad.
    Axis have to destroy the fuel tanks at the upper part of the map (If Iā€™m not mistaking) , now you can just blow it up with a nade or by shooting. Is that the idea, or? :rolleyes:

And I also have a lot of lagg problems. But the idea is cool (especially when you look down as a player, Iā€™ve never seen that before (=> look at screenshot 2) ) Perhaps itā€™s my ET ?
Anyway, good luck in pimping up the mod :slight_smile:

OMG, I HAS FEET!

Heh, sorry, got carried away there. But remember, it is an alpha after all.

yes but the BIG problems with this mod: is than you canā€™t have punkbuster onā€¦

(molotov) #26

yes, do this and evenbalance does add a checksum for the *.dll so kick will be not problem anymore. We had same issues with our mod :tongue:

(macbeth) #27

Thanks you

Note #2: These kicks are when PunkBuster detects a modification of your game exe running in memory or you are using a modified client. Possible explanations are as follows:

  1. A virus modified the game executable
  2. A crack of some sort was applied to the game executable
  3. You are using a non-standard version of the game (D2D/Steam etc.)

Please make sure you run the latest and original version of the game. Using no-cd hacks could be the cause of these kicks. Make sure you have installed the latest patches of your game.

Also, I recommend that you run a virus/malware scan of your computer to see if anything is trying to attach itself to the running program. Also run a memory stress test to see if there is a fault there that could be causing issues (Note: this is rare!). You can find such a program on the following website:

http://www.memtest86.com/

In extreme cases, some users have reported that BIOS updates have stopped this kick. If the memtest does not show up an error and the other solutions did not help, try a reinstall of the game please.

(Berzerkr) #28

Please make sure you run the latest and original version of the game.

Thatā€™s what we all do, PunkBuster is just incompatible with the new custom made modifications (East Front & No Quarter).

(ailmanki) #29

That is a kinda standard answer, donā€™t want to know how many people do submit a ticket every dayā€¦
So if you meet the requirements they expect, ā€¦ add a note that all of that is ok, and that it only concerns x mod ā€¦ or x settingsā€¦ whateverā€¦ take the time to explain to them and they will likely take the time to fix it.

first sry for the offtopic!:rolleyes:

@macbeth
We have a ā€œpreā€ version which have no problem with PB at all and run fine. This version was made at 16th november and inluding the mac files too (server win/lin, client win/lin/mac)

The problem with PB came with a newest bin wich was made after 25th november.

Iā€™m still unsure it is PB related problem or some mod modification causing this problem, but iam not expert in coding, it is only my imho.

UPDATE there is a replacement ef-main3.pk3 here to fix the model bug with that patch.

(Pande) #35

So I donā€™t quite understandā€¦ you said its gonna be a standalone but this is a mod at this pointā€¦ is there going to be both an ET mod and an Xreal Standalone?

(Wezelkrozum) #36

yes totally right. We always worked for Mod, Eastfront, for ET. And we are now also working on the standalone Eastfront on the Xreal Engine. We first finish the Mod for ET, and then we are going to make the standalone Eastfront.

(Pegazus) #37

Good luck with the Eastfront standalone game since i like what i see with the mod itself, Eastfront mod is one of the best mods recently in my opinion :wink: Keep us up to date.

(Pande) #38

the Xreal engine looks a lot more fun so canā€™t wait to see Lublin in that :slight_smile: great thanks for clearing things up.

(gs_warrior) #39

Oh there we go

Yes PB is disabled on all /GS/ servers running EastFront but it seems that if you update your ET game with the pb updater it works ok but every time i load a new update to the servers then we have to disable pb again.
there reply to me was talk to the game makers lolā€¦

PB needs to get it together is all i can say
But if any one has a EF server running with pb enabled i would love to at least get a look at your server.cfg so maybe i can figure out why yours works but ours dont

Thanks
/GS/Warrior/GS/

(Saadi) #40

Like I read somewhere,
youĀ“ll develop EF later on the XreaL engineā€¦
Will it look (based on the Grapix) like this?:
?

Btw: Will it still be based on WolfET or it will be stand alone like Urban Terror?

Imagine True Combat Elite would look like this and would be based still on WolfETā€¦
That would be sooooo neeeaat!!!
