Invasion 2.0.1-5.4
Hello, Invasion2.0 is now available :)
What is Invasion 2.0 ?Invasion 2.0, by
BigGamer95 and
Oops, is the first additionnal (it don't change anything in the server when it's not running, it's an ADD-ON for tremulous.) game mode (like CTF, deathmatch, etc. in others games) of tremulous (so it's not like tremx, ballance or others mod of tremulous). It's a mode solo OR cooperatif.
The objectif is :
Players are humans, without node, and versus 6-12 aliens (amine bot). The aliens base has 10 eggs, and humans must destroy all egg and all bots without dying (no node :p). They can't use flammer or jetpack.
The difficulty change with map, layout or number of bots.
Maps withs layouts invasion : atcs, atcszalpha-b2, utcs, tremor, niveus, atcs-2yb and stargatecommand-b1.
You can run invasion with /callvote invasion number in a map with a layout invasion.
So, you can have invasion in your server and play normaly when nobody want invasion, it's a callvote (admin can run invasion too with !invasion name number, and can start with !invasion start). When invasion is not running, your server is classic :)
Why Invasion 2.0 and not 1.0 ? Because http://tremulous.net/forum/index.php?topic=7103.0 (an old version of invasion by me)
What is new (changelog) ?the first version :
* Only admins can run invasion and start invasion with !invasion and !start_invasion (now "!invasion start" in 2.0)In 2.0 we add :
* Callvote invasion number (who restart the map with the good layout, run invasion, and start)
* If some players try to leave the base before the start, they are grabbed and receive 2 dammage/second until invasion start
* When someone destroy an egg, the server send a cp who say how many eggs left.
* Protection anti !kick/!ban/!putteam and callvote kick a bot. (and protection !drop if you use the optionnal patch 009-qvm_pq.drop[with.trembot].patch of optionnalpatchs.zip)
* Protection no !putteam/!unlock a or h and no force join admins if invasion is running (some admins abused and played in aliens team before players when invasion was running ...)
* Protection no !revert if invasion is running
* No bug, bots are called 5 seconds after the start so players aren't disconnected by the error "A reliable command cycled out"
* No need admin to run invasion, start or other :p
* Humans base can't be destroyed, deconned or other
* Player can't use ckit (no deconner, and player can't build, so it is useless :p)2.0.1-5.4 :
* Medistation regen the stamina.
* Now work with MG tremded and Tremfusion tremded.
* 2 news optionnals patchs (trembot with g_password and sv_rconlog)
For use Invasion you have 3 choices :(i think you know how to use qvm/tremded or patch and compil, if you don't know, read a tuto :s)
1) Lakitu + Trembot + Invasion : QVM + Tremded
http://www.invasion.c4.fr/up/Invasion2.0.1-5.4/qvm+tremded_Invasion_2.0.1-5.4_without_optionnal-patchs.zip
2) Lakitu + Trembot + Invasion + all optionnals patchs (as in "Invasion Official Server" ^^)
http://www.invasion.c4.fr/up/Invasion2.0.1-5.4/qvm+tremded_Invasion_2.0.1-5.4_with_optionnal-patchs.zip
3) Use svn 966 + lakitu 5.4 patch + Trembot.patch + Invasion.patch ( + patchs of optionnal-patchs.zip that you want)

for optionnals patchs, you can use them without trembot/invasion (except for "patch 009-qvm_pq.drop[with.trembot].patch"), you can find him here : optionnalpatchs.zip). Lot of this patchs was ported for lakitu 5.3 by Oops.
optionnalpatchs.zip containt a bug fixe for buffer overflow crash (002-qvm_pq_svn63_sanitisename_overflow_fix.patch), i don't find this code in lakitu5.3.patch but the page in mercenariesguild said that it already fixed :s In my server, it crash, so i inclued this patch (with latest lakitu5.3.patch ). If your server crash by a buffer overflow, use this patch, if it don't crash, you don't need (QVM inclued this patch and work without problem).

Invasion 2.0.1-5.4 is available, medistation regen the stamina
Invasion work now with tremfusion and MG tremded.
thx for comments and suggestions.
I attempted to download from your links, but it says I am forbidden. Am I missing something(besides brains?)
what links don't work? i had tester all link, all work for me :s
(little news : we prepare the 2.0.2, with lots of nice news, you can already test the "/callvote invasion (number) (layout)" in official server, () = option, layout = invasion or invasion1 (new layout !) on atcs, and only invasion atm on other maps )
I'm just curious, I've been trying to load different QVMs for some time now without manually replacing them and loading a new map. How does your callvote feature work? I'd like to sort of make certain maps play certain QVMs on a modded server, and I think this is possible with the map.cfg files, but I'm not sure how.
Example:
if( g_yourmod.integer 1 )
........
else
normal code
Or something like that
ackman is right ^^
we use only one qvm which has tremulous 1.1 and invasion, not 2 qvm
read the patch for see an example
(and in the future we will do invasion for others qvm/mods like Invasion+Tremx ^^ we will do that after invasion 2.0.2)
So Does this release come with bots, I was just confused about it. :-X
yes this release come with Trembot's patch (by amine) (and it's include in the qvm)
i found an video about the first version of invasion : http://wwf-team.fr/~ptitnico/videos/invasion-xvid+mp3(720x576).avi (http://wwf-team.fr/~ptitnico/videos/invasion-xvid+mp3(720x576).avi) (thx Ptit_Nico for your video)
on invasion 2.0.x no need to be admin, use /callvote invasion (number) (layout) (layout) is a preview of the 2.0.2 ^^
on atcs, there are 3 layouts : invasion, invasion1 and invasion-xtrem1
we (Oops, Skydreamer and me) are working on invasion 2.0.2, but it will take a long time i think (because lot of news feature on this version :p)
when a feature is done, i add it on the Invasion Old/Test server, and if there is no bug, on Invasion Official Server (as for (layout) in callvote), come on test and report all bug that you see please.
Very nice video!
