Mineflags replacement pack.


(Spookstah) #1

I`ve made some new textures that replace the mineflags for both sides, so maybe the n00bs will finaly understand it isnt capture the flag :banana:

You can find the file here: http://www.thelostparadise.com/files/z_mineflag.pk3

lol

awesome work, I guess the big “M” isn’t good enough, the skull-and-crossbones is the universal sign for “No no” lol

ROFLMAO

Maybe if a LOUD voice screamed “DONT STEP ON MINES IDIOT” every time they died…

I don’t think it would work. I think they will see the skull-and-crossbones and they will think “wow, killer weapon powerup - gotta get it!”

FLAGGY POWER-UPS

the precedent was set years ago - if its a flag, run over it

nice job, I like the skull n cross bones better than the big M


(DrGratis) #6

Maybe you should make a flag that says “STEP HERE”
then noobs wont do it and the rest of us ALREADY KNOW not to!! :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash: :bash:

sorry, but those wont work. if the noob saw that skull and crossbones they’d be like “Mmmmm… drugs!” and they would try to huff the colored smoke.

The “Touch this and Die” is a good one though.

Nice work, both of you. Very detailed :slight_smile:
These will work on a public server or is it only if the server has them installed?

Not sure how the sv_pure works in ET.


(Freedom[]Tickler) #11

huff the colored smoke

bwahahahahaha - too funny

there shld be a darwin award in this game - move over welcome newbie award - we got the weed yourself out of the gene pool award

LOLOL!!

Anyhows, I like the modifications, the skull one shoulda been the ET default IMO

They’ll only work if they’re installed on the server and the client (you) has auto-downloads enabled. sv_pure 1 just means that the pk3 files on the server must be the same as the pk3 files on your PC.


(LegoManser) #14

Thanks. It works just like in Quake3 then.

Hello guys, must say that i really love the new flags… good job !
But for some reason it will not download to my client when it’s put on the server (Server has been restarted).

The client is set do download missing files, and as you can see below the server is set to allow download too.

We made a 6 map campaign pk3 file and it works great with that one, everybody gets it.

The mine flags works if i copy the Z_mine.pk3 file manually to the etmain directory… Any suggestions ?

//Our current server settings

set sv_dl_maxRate “42000”
set sv_allowDownload “1”
set sv_wwwDownload “0”
set sv_wwwBaseURL “”
set sv_wwwDlDisconnected “0”
set sv_wwwFallbackURL “http://wolf.dehn.net”

If you play on one of these new mine flag maps what happens if you go to a new server? You keep the flags right? Whatabout a PunkBuster server?

Could you be kicked for having alternative mine flags? (I don’t think it makes any sense, but still)


(highboy) #17

New flags will only be visible if the server have loaded the pk3 files at startup, if it havent you will have the standard flags.

Could you be kicked for having alternative mine flags? (I don’t think it makes any sense, but still)

No you will not be kicked…

We are running the SenF servers at 195.149.21.89:27960 and 195.149.21.89:27962 if anybody would like to test it…

Both servers are hosted by Jolt…

I’m pretty sure the easiest way to keep n00bs off mines… would be to edit the objectives list to include… “Step on every mine you see.”

our mines always get a chuckle
