Need help with server

(soulfreaq) #1

when a map ends you stay in this “end of map” thingy for for 60 seconds… ive seen other servers that have it set to like 20 seconds… anynone knows how to change that time??

thanks for helping

(system) #2

i think it is : g_intermissiontime

like in the server.cfg put : set g_intermissiontime “20” for example

but i dont know if this is for all mods…just look for something in the mods manual for intermission

we got for example :

set g_intermissionTime “20”
set g_intermissionPercent “100”

hope it works and the answer was correct sir :wink:

(soulfreaq) #3

hehe im not using any mod. but i will try this out…

thanks for your advise…

(soulfreaq) #4

hehe i dont work…

(stealth6) #5

set g_intermissionTime “35” //intermission time
set g_intermissionReadyPercent “60” //ready percent to end intermission

rtcw site is down? (the one with the huge ET cvarlist :s ??)

(system) #6

Darn! i wrote it wrong from our config, my bad but thanks for correction sir Stealth :wink:

(soulfreaq) #7

thank you guys… but i guess i need somkinda Mod to make this work…
thing is there where some servers named Wargamez.dk pretty popular and runnin standart ET 2.55 but those servers died. and we are trying to make a server just like em… so the rules are no Mods and only version 2.55… and only standart campaings…

well actually i would love to add 1 more campaign but every time we tryed messing with Mod n maps n extra campaigns everything swred up and the servers crashed even when we used 2.60b. so finnaly its running good with just standart settings… just wanted small changes like the “set g_intermissionTime” that dont work.

well not that big a problem…

but now that i got your attention does anyone knows why everything screwed up?
some people said it was cuz of remote server crashing but the situations just diddent seemd like it…
it was like every second player that connected made the server crash and restart…

maybe somone knows a list of maps that works with 2.55 without mods? or even have a 3 map campaign?
man im just missing a few maps in the standart ET… like caen, frostbite, beach and a few scrim maps.

Problem with 2.60b is there is soo many servers and soo few players… i really wish splash damage would make a final update for this game…

(Nail) #8

they did, it’s called 2.60

(soulfreaq) #9

Nail do you really think 2.60 is good enough to be called a final update for this game?
first 2.60b was realesased. then came windows vista. then came splash damage’s web site update…
now on spalsh damage’s “new” website they made a fancy looking “Download RTCW ET Here”, probly for the free and good commercial. only probem is that MANY MANY vista users cant run it at all. so the free commercial game is pretty much doing worse commercial than good. “Download somthing that dosent work here”…
and thats only to mention 1 of the many problems with 2.60.
now if they wantet to make a good and free commercial game they should use the few days to make everything work.
ET is slowly dying and that dosent require much brain to see that.
and why?
1 old game
2 all the problems with both 2.55 AND 2.60.

  • If your talking about W:ET use that abbreveation not RTCW, since they are 2 different games.
  • Dunno if you know what commercial means, but W:ET is a free game so they aren’t making any money from it.
  • ET was released free of charge because it wasn’t completed, so by saying is this good enough for a final release? makes absolutely no sense. That’s why people made mods to try and complete the game.
  • I am running vista 64bit ulimate version and ET is something I have had absolutely no problems with so I don’t understand your point, the only thing i had to do is turn off UAC but who doesn’t?
  • “ET is slowly dieing” They’ve been saying that for years, but we’re still here aren’t we…
  • And 2.60 is better then 2.55, but this should be obvious thats why it’s a patch, that means they fixed bugs

Anyway There are still many bugs in ET, but if you want a tip I think upgrading to 2.60b with NQ 1.2.5 fixes the most bugs.
And also you say that 2.60 has a smaller player base, but if you look at splatterladder there are 4 x more 2.60 servers so the only difference imo, is that the players are getting more spread out on 2.60 compared to 2.55.
But hey you not the only person who thinks like this so …

(Nail) #11

I have no problem running W:ET on Vista 64bit w/quad core, no idea why people have any issues. I prefer ETPro but the latest NQ looks great for the xpsave types.

(stealth6) #12

yes I also have quad core i7, but I said NQ since etpro is very good, but still has many bugs.

(so does NQ, but more secure I think)

ok back to my question…
does anyone have problems with your servers.
we had soo many problem… we tryed using all the popular mods and most maps. and same result
the server crashed and restartet. when players connectet…

anyone had these problems?

(Nail) #14

nope, never had server probs under ETPro

(twt_thunder) #15

i’ve been running both 2.55 and 2.60 servers… with original,etpub,jaymod,noquarter and they always work great… but beware if you’re using bots on server… wrong bots to the wrong mod could f*** up your server

(soulfreaq) #16

So i wanna Add a new campaign with the maps. Caen + supply + frostbite.
and im scared since last time i tryed it it went all wrong…
but you make it sound very easy i just make the campaign add it to the server and everything should be fine? people downloading it should be fine. running it on 2.55 should be fine.
last time it wouldet even work when we reinstalled the entire server to basic maps on 2.55.
now the only difference ive found so far is that we bought the server at games major… but could they really have ben ****ing us up like that?

anyone got a link to the campaign making program thingy? cant remember the name…

maybe someone have a guide “how to for noobs” to make this work?

goal is a server with the 2 standart campaigns running 2.55 and now add the new campaign.

(stealth6) #17

if you use an objective cycle then they don’t have to download it.

(system) #18

i dont use it but here are 2 campaign creators :

One is php though and the other one is java. If you got java installed, just execute the Windows.bat file :slight_smile:
If you need help when you got problems, post the campaignfile and we will help you :slight_smile:

btw. to keep et somehow pure, try etpub mod :slight_smile:
