Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
How about a new fun map.
I suggest a map with Lightning Gun and machine gun and the same maps we use for only rail (except dm17).
Ammo 400 for lg and 400 for mg should be ok OR if you prefer only lg, then unlimited
I think it will improve players skill also. I'm not good at this gun but I will improve.....

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
Well im sure Y could make another mod for the voting system but what i know is that lg with delag 2 is pretty useless or too usefull u can point the lg besides target and will hit anyway, that works even better with high ping... so dunno. I think we should make like capture the flag sometimes, thats my opinion but ofc just suggestion.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
Sounds good. The only issue is that i am not sure if you can set unlimited i mean really unlimited ammo. What you can set is ammo to 999 and with LG this could deplete relatively quickly. MG will last a bit longer.
And what kind of mode would be this based on? Freezetag? or teamDM?
For the ammo what we could do is replace all items for LG ammo It would be a bit of work but it though
CTF is also not bad idea.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
I think we should keep it simple, same mod (freeze), 999 ammo at start up for lg and mg, no powerups and ammo items at the map.
Yellow is it a way to increase the time to unfreeze someone ? With lg it should be simple to avoid the damage (during the thaw) and we will end up with a map that never ends....

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
Sure there is no problem to increase the thaw time. What time do you have on mind?
Basically i see it as a slightly modified instagib settings. Also no items on map and lots of ammo.
We could also turn on the weapon drop. If you kill someone you will get his ammo. This could increase the time you actually have ammo.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
ok config is done. I added it also to voting system. It is within fun maps.
I called it LMO (lightininggun and machinegun only).
Melt time: 5sec
Weapons drop on
Weapon pickup (after you freeze an enemy) will restore your ammo to 999 (LG only. MG can't be dropped)
I have added starting armor 100 to make it more challenging. It was too easy to kill someone with only 100hp.
Portable teleporter is on each new round and each respawn.
It is not so bad with the ammo. 999 can last pretty long.
You can try it either by voting or directly executing the config
/rcon exec lmo.cfg
Post your opinions.
PS: I played few rounds against bots and it was quite fun.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
First of all, thanks Yellow for your time.
An important question. If load it with rcon, after the end of the map will it get back to normal cfg ?
Its been awhile since i used rcon and dont remember the default mods name to get it back to normal....#
nuuuuubb
is it freeze.cfg ?

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
The rotation system automatically loads freeze config so after the map is over and ppl vote it will go back to normal. But yes you can load it back manually with /rcon exec freeze.cfg. Best practice is to load a new map after loading the cfg because it will load all textures and weapons etc.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
some different maps in the rotation would be nice too

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
Hey Wedge,
sure no problem. Bring them on. I can add them to fun maps.
Also i was thinking about to promote pro-q3tourney7 map to classic maps. It is kinda sweet and i think most of players like it. Currently the map is under the fun maps section.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
I would say the "Quake III Arena.exe" file could be the full version. Since i have not uploaded it i have no idea what exactly it is. I would say Flak did it. But looking at the size 470MB this looks pretty much as a full q3 package.
Anyways what you really need is a pak0.pk3 file and 1.16 pointrelease + client of your desire (noghost or nemesis). And ofc maps.

Re: Making the server more interesting (Fun maps)
Gauntlet only maps would be fun which i have sugested before and most players said would be fun. There is a map with an ice hockey pitch, pummle and sliding that would be interesting.
Please give it a try.
