trying to config g_gravity, and have it stay. wolf et

(FireballLightning) #1

Hi.

Can someone kindly assist me with a problem i’m running into with that g_gravity on wolf et?

Im not either newb or uber-leet on this kind of stuff, i’d say im just more intermediate.

say i want g_gravity 500. but it always reverts back to 800 on a map load, right after or almost after the line where the window console mentions “MOTD”.

my console has…


Setting MOTD...
broadcast: print "Server: g_gravity changed to 800
"

i read on this forum somewhere it should be in the campaign config.

i actually took default objective cycle and made gametype 2 into gametype 4, and added the g_gravity nnn into it, good/bad?

maybe i can see part of a config of a gravity changed campaign?
it’s a mystery, but it also drives me crazy.

thnx

Sorry if it’s abit early…tho 2 days didn’t see anything else here.

if anyone knows…all i’m really trying is to change g_gravity when each map loads on my .cfg that has my campaign, and i hope i can assume my campaign config is correct otherwise.

I’m one of the people who search -> ask -> follow instructions accordingly, in that order typically. 8)

i know it can be done, i’ve seen some servers on wolfenstein with this done.
thnx again incase…

change it in the server.cfg that should do the trick, I used it for altering the speed once for all maps

so add in server.cfg
g_gravity 500

or maybe it already says g_gravity 800 then you have to replace 800 with 500

this reply is a bit late, my fault but heres what happened, or not.

i checked the whole server config via search (works well too), and i only had g_gravity in there once. once MOTD is initialized and map loads, back to 800/n it goes. I’m trying g_gravity “650” right now, and it’s in there once.

i’ve tried even duplicating perhaps too much even. in the server.cfg, in the .bat launcher, in the campaign config i made from objectivecycle.cfg.

I’m not sure if i need to make or have a compatible .pk3 for the campaign, or other. Or, if it’s somehow related to my software or hardware. Or if I need set, seta, set then another letter.

i literally never had gravity to work thou config or to stay, i’ve only gotten it to work for a single map by rcon. Server uses etmain and newest whaleclient, 1.4beta1, if this helps to help me.
thank u in advance.

don’t mean to sound a bit stupid, but isn’t whaleclient made for etpub??

Not sure. i know it has forcecvar backup with etpub mentioned. and might mention it other ways on it’s site rainhosting.com.
