What is theeeeeese?Downloading now.

its a beta. seems to run well atleast the older version i use. the code seems much better at parts(already started to port my QVM its going to be alot of work). one thing i find annoying though its probably just me is losing the ! in admin commands.

[David]

Yay!
And no x86_64 linux?

The server Dretch*Storm joins the GPP1 beta testing. I invite other established servers to follow and help the trem devs.

noooeee!1111!!1  old menu music plagues my ears!

[danmal]

Source is still set to local/lan. Otherwise it seems fine. What's required to setup a 1.2 beta server? Just replace the tremded with a 1.2 beta tremded?

[David]

and replace the qvms, and add the pk3's.

Agreed. We need new music.

Some server setup caveats:

- Remember to set sv_pure 0.
- If your sv_hostname has control characters (we did) your server won't show up on the list.
- Admin commands are shown with /adminhelp instead of !help, and the old '!' commands use now '/' instead (e.g, /time)

Yeah, sorta forgot about them in my excitement. Well that seems easy enough to do then. Are there any major changes that I should be aware about in admin.dat or the config files?

[mooseberry]

And no x86_64 linux?

That will likely change but it is not decided yet.

[Bissig]

Oh noez, I love the ! commands. They look leet. / is just boringly common.

[Hendrich]

I joined on the >< server. Played for awhile. I was enjoying the balance changes. Got kicked for aimbot.



Some things never change.

Some server setup caveats:

- Remember to set sv_pure 0.
- If your sv_hostname has control characters (we did) your server won't show up on the list.
- Admin commands are shown with /adminhelp instead of !help, and the old '!' commands use now '/' instead (e.g, /time)

More:

set g_humanStage2Threshold 4000
set g_humanStage3Threshold 8000
set g_alienStage2Threshold 8000
set g_alienStage3Threshold 16000

If you tweaked these in your config, use the values above else you will have teams getting S3 before 2m of game.

Bigger change: ALL admin flags/levels have changed. They no longer use character-flags, but rather words describing access.

e.g.,

Code Select Expand


[level]
level   = 0
name    = ^4Visitor
flags   = admintest adminhelp time

[level]
level   = 1
name    = ^2Regular
flags   = listplayers admintest adminhelp time

no it isn't, you have trash in your config.

[Celestial_Rage]

Does it still have those annoying popup windows telling you that you can't evolve because there is a human too close, or you don't have enough creds, etc where you have to click 'Ok' or press escape? I think those should be taken out, as they really just irritating and often ends up getting you killed when you are the last hope for your team. Perhaps another messaging system could be used, something similar to cp?

You know you could turn those off?...

Just deleted my configs and you were right. Resolution was still 640x480 though.

Um, no? Nothing about sv_pure has changed. Whether or not you want to set it is your business but there is no additional reason why it must be done for this.

Actually it'd be more useful for beta testing if pure were left 1, since at least that way bug reports aren't due to bogus reasons like crap files floating around in users' directories.

I installed temulous + the gameplay preview, fired it up, but couldn't find Dretch*Storm in the server list. I'd like to try out the beta (been a while since I played tremulous) but apparently no one else is playing it right now. Does anyone know which servers ARE running the beta? I presume the development servers are, but are there any others besides D*S (which I can't find in the list)? Servers where perhaps there are people actually playing?
