OK, I've been doing some testing here.

Didn't it always pop up on fragged player's screen on death? I know that's the default on most mods and I have not (intentionally) changed that in TMG.

I've never seen a scoreboard pop up on respawn.

Are these both an issue or only the pop on respawn?

Interesting. I'll look into it. I didn't think I changed anything to make it do that. If you set newscore 0 does it still pop up?

Added Capture counts to the scoreboard per your request. It's not like LMCTF but it's more like an enhanced version of the existing TMG CTF scoreboard.

Added the console variable "newscore" to allow you to select the new version or the old one if you don't like it or if it has bugs. Default is 1, the new version, set it to 0 with rcon or in your configuration as you see fit. You can toggle it "live" on the server with rcon to compare layouts.

Pull the new code to your local repo and recompile.

I added capture tracking to the player HUD tonight. Scoreboard modification to follow. The TMG scoreboards are one-line entries for players, not multiline like LMCTF so adding another element needs some work but the statistic is tracked in the player data, now it's just a matter of laying out the scoreboard format.

Adding...

It's no wonder the story became a media circus, too. The murder happened Christmas fuckin' morning, and the victim was some innocent cute little blonde beauty pageant kiddie. The crime scene was gruesome as hell, blood EVERYWHERE. Something like that happens to a 6 year old kid, it's already gonna be a big news story, but when it happens Christmas morning, that's exponentially more shocking and horrifying.

You gotta feel so bad for her folks too. Their 6 year old kid is stabbed a zillion times and killed right under their noses in their own home while they were in bed sleeping and completely unaware. And Christmas is supposed to be a rather HAPPY time of the year that most people always look forward to. What do they have to look forward to every year for the rest of their lives other than remembering what happened on that day. Fuckin' sad.

I don't know where you get your information from but she was hit on the head and strangled, covered in a blanket and hidden in the wine cellar section of the basement. Nobody found her for 8 hours after she was reported missing according to the reports.

There was DNA found on the victim that was inconsistent with the family DNA, indicating an outsider was a likely perpetrator.

I don't know why it can't be added. It's just a matter of adding the capture count to the player state and pulling it up. I think it might be possible to add it to the player HUD while we're at it.

In a clip from a 60 Minutes interview aboard the Trump private plane Melania claimed she wrote the speech herself. It wouldn't surprise me if she copy-pasted all of it from different sources. Intellectual dishonesty goes hand in hand with moral dishonesty and the Trumps have plenty of that.

All of the current candidates are morally bankrupt.

I'm back from Houston and there are no more problems there, for a while at least... they can't seem to get along without me.

I'd like you to test that it's no longer possible to choose a map via rcon or mapvote that doesn't exist on the server. If you have a map in your maplist file and the actual .bsp isn't on the server then it should reject the changeover to the map, both by mapvote command or by selecting it from the menu.

My next plan is to fix the map rotation so it stops skipping files in the list.

Jury finds them in the clear? Phew, it's a good thing too. I was honestly worried that the cops fired upon him due to the color of his skin.

If you listen closely and watch the second body cam closely you will observe that the officer at the window with the driver was black. He was also most at risk and appears to have fired first. It wouldn't surprise me if he called for backup before approaching the vehicle and contacting the driver. He also says the reason for stopping him was because he "turned right in front of us". This would seem to indicate he had a partner in the car or another car was behind him.

could be an impatient thing i dunno i havent experienced it so not sure what it is hes talking about..

i will investigate further and see what i can find out
-------------
 also whatever q2admin modified client macanah is getting at his server im having same issue with some players being kicked by q2admin for modified client..or maybe its a client proxy or both now i do have to check to verify.

i thouht i saw somewhere in a q2admin text about an option and thought i made it not so strict...for proxy but its still happening to a few players being kicked...

ill check server logs find the exact message and also look through q2admin config see if i can find answer for that.

Use the q2admin that quadz is directing you to use. The one I specified is slightly different and I had some trouble with it when starting up the Texas server. I expect that will fix your kicking problem. I got kicked a few times from your server by just alt-tabbing away from the game.

i dont keep log but basically says kicked for using modified client,, im using r1q2 ded server with q2 admin

Problem description is not detailed enough for analysis. Keep logs. r1q2ded and q2admin tools keep logs by default. If you are turning off logs you are on your own.

Are you sure he's not just impatient for the changeover at the intermission? TMG's a bit odd in that it holds that intermission so long and there is no way to "connect" to the next map until the server times out.

When you do a gamemap command there is immediate reconnection of all clients without delay.

Other than that, I have no clue why there would be a problem.

DOWNLOAD MAPS HERE !! / Re: WIP Quake 2 singleplayer unit (2/3 done!) :3

R1Q2 b8012.

Is this wav file a custom file?

It's not custom unless overridden by either a map entity or a distributed file. rockfly.wav is in pak0.pak, from the original game distribution and it's found in sound/weapons/rockfly.wav and is precached in the normal game code. Could Q2pro be at fault here?

I tried to download the map but my browser wants to display it instead of downloading it and I didn't try to find a way around that.

Edit: I got Firefox to download it. Checking it out in various modes.

There is no reference to rockfly.wav in that map when I inspected the text in the browser.

weapons / Re: WoD 6.08?

« on: June 28, 2016, 12:13:56 AM »

Those binaries are new enough it might work but Linux has changed a lot since 2006-2007. Windows has changed even more and Windows 10 dropped all support for legacy Visual C++ 6.0 compiled binaries.

Depending on the tools they used to build those binaries you may or may not have problems with them. They also may have some bugs or security holes we don't know about since we can't see the source. WOD 6.08 was probably the most stable version, I'm not sure about the ones that followed as I don't remember playing those WOD versions much, if at all. I think I remember 6.04 thru 6.08.

Grab and go try them or point your support guys to that collection and let them decide what they need.
