Wow your slander knows no bounds does it. Viomine has no conflicts with other maps.

Is there place where people can manually download the maps and stuff before hand all in one go in single package, want to try make this a easy as possible for people, autodownload isn’t always working for people from what I’ve read in past so manual way be nice, once we have this I’ll get news organised.

Nah, autodownload of 3 maps is an easy bean

(.Chris.) #144

It’s 4 maps and there are megatextures involved and autodownload isn’t 100& reliable.

MoP didn’t release new team jungle yet too :frowning:

(.Chris.) #146

Pester him on irc, he needs reminding he told me :slight_smile:

(Scrupus) #147

Autodownload should work fine with so few maps, but I’ll make a zip anyway. It’s quickly done, just have to be sure we have all the files first. Shall we wait for teamjungle?

(.Chris.) #148

Mop is working on it as we speak, hopefully it be ready this evening.

Hi there guys. Finally got myself an account here.
I’m really interested in watching this unfold, but I will probably not be able to make it live. Will there be VODs?

Server demos will most likely be available, better than any VOD (unless you want commentary but not sure if it will be shoutcasted).

(.Chris.) #151

There will be a sort of highlights video for sure. Not sure about a full VOD.

(kristus) #152

Ok. Thanks. :slight_smile:

(Ashog) #153

Visit Nirvana today, as a starters

(AnthonyDa) #154

Still no news on SD website about this :frowning:

(.Chris.) #155

Cause I not told them details yet.

(AnthonyDa) #156

MoP gave us new teamjungle but you can still go under map, so I guess he will fix it before making it public :frowning:

(.Chris.) #157

If you could quickly whip something up using current version that be grand, will get news sorted out this evening once done, we can update news and server if new version comes along in advance but I’m not keen on changing it at the last moment. (sorry MoP)

ok, zip is ready, had to update the campaign pak too. Untested but it was a small change so hopefully works ok.

Autodownload is recommended - try that first but use manual zip if problems.

Zip instructions (for manual download):

  1. Download zip with map files here (200MB):

http://etqw.nett.org/download/etqw/maps/packs/etqw_custom_cup_2010.zip

  1. Unzip map files into your base folder, either in fs_userpath or fs_savepath.

  2. Start etqw, play local, pick Custom Cup Campaign.

TV instructions/autodownload:

  1. Connect to etqw.nett.org:27745

Client will restart twice - first for etqwpro, second for custom content.

1 min delay on TV server.

Match server/autodownload:

  1. Connect to etqw.nett.org:27736

Open for training or testing until Sunday.

Let me know if asap if any problems. Still a bit unsure about that TV server but it seems to work better when someone is playing.

Can we try a test on Wednesday or Thursday?

One or more players connect to TV server, two or more players to match server, to check if it works. Ideally someone with clean clients as well.

I also think we should select one match admin/ref (not me), and one shoutcaster/cameraman. Admin can get pw and rcon.

Even if we don’t have live shoutcasting it would be cool with someone to run a camera tv viewers can follow. Someone who knows the maps, so those who don’t know the maps don’t get lost :wink:

Nice one Scrupus, available to test tomorrow!

(Scrupus) #160

ok good, let’s try around 20 - can join you on the irc channel first so we can coordinate.
