hey…

just one comment coz I thought about this :

If medics can revive under water… then maps like oasis (I kno it’s not an rtcw map but it would still be played with ur mod) would have some objectives becoming useless like repairing waterpumps --> rush in with a couple of medics who revive each other/the other players when they drown… maybe make dieing because of water (ie drawning) instant limbo then?

that said, I like the idea… maybe add faster fire rates (havn’t tested but didnt see them in the list of changes eather), the converted rtcw maps with a mapcycle for serveradmins and that kinda shit to make it all complete :slight_smile:

Hello,

I’m testing RTCWMOD release in my server (Windows 2003 Server) and it crashed 2 times in 2 hours… how could I “debug” the error?.. the lastest lines of etconsole.log it’s the following:

Info string length exceeded
Info string length exceeded
Info string length excee

This error message is displayed even when I start the server :banghead:

sounds like you are using too many setinfo’s in your config… are you running the default etmain config or did you take it from etpro

if thats not the problem then Im using too many serverinfo flags… which I didnt have a problem with when I was testing before… but will look into it


(WiLZy) #5

setinfo are the following?

sets .IRC “4Frags.squad” // your IRC channel + server here
sets .Administrator 4Frags|WiLZy
sets .Location Spain
sets .Connection T1

Or do you mean another thing?

The server is: 212.34.137.60:27960

It seems to only crash when someone is playing into it, the server had been UP all the night, but noone had played into it in all the night

I could give you access trough FTP if this could help you…

Oh man!
Is this ever cool!! :clap:

We are huge fans of RTCW, and run a vanilla (out of the box) server, and a customs-only server. The reason a lot of us are not ET fans is because of many of the things that this mod addresses. For some, it’s the XP/rank increases and the fact that it is hard to jump in a long campaign with 4-star meds, COs and FOs, and be fodder for everyone for at least 45 minutes. Being able to turn that off would be great.
For me, though, the biggest change is the weapon action. ET is simply not as ‘accurate’ or precise, as RTCW, and coming from a player since the demo of RTCW, firefights in ET are sometimes a toss-up at best as far as who the victor will be. To have the guns shoot and act as they do in RTCW… well, I can’t wait to try it out. If this works well, I will be glad to have purchased my 4th copy of Wolf - the new Platinum Edition that comes with an ET disc!

Thanks, Demoman!

Hi there
I woud like to thank u for the mode… people r loving it :slight_smile:
But i have a “small” problem
the server crashes…
I start the server, everithing is ok, people r playing, but in some time (random) server crashes, without reason. The server is ok, when it was running ET PRO or ET MAIN there were no problems…
any suggestions?
Thx

Yes, some server crashes :frowning:


(Demolama) #10

I’m looking into the problem… sorry about the crashes

Pretty sure that is what he means… “sets” uses up static
storage space often used by mods for storing info. If you
use them all up in your .cfg, the game will give errors
similar to above. The more players, the more storage
needed.
