Dredd.Quakeone.COM

really good server -

but was hoping that the Clan Arena mod could get updated to 1.90 from the 1.6 beta version thats on there now.

Look forward to using it in the future.

Good map selection though the mod VERSION they are running is OUTDATED and bugged! I know I wrote it! The bugs that is... I should talk to whomever is incharge with Dredd and ask them to update the mod!
Wait I have access to that! Eek! im all at fault *grr I hate my stupid hatred for stupidity!

Edit, oh wait! Just play at RAGE since it's on the SAME BOX??

I'm corn-fused....

Hey R00k, there were quite a few people who pushed for Dredd, I know Bam, Baker,Frenzy You and my self should have direct access to the server and same for admins.

Dredd, among other things is supposed to have 3 key features...

1. Forced Map rotation with no sign of DM3 (DM3Again sure).
2. A No-Bullshit policy which keeps assholes at bay.
3. A Top 3 Player Podium (battles for third)

I had talked to Bam about getting a stable version but he did not have the data on his PC.

...I'd like to get back to where we were with changing the face of CAx!

gnight.

[Zop]

When is team Green turning into team Purple or something?

[Frenzy]

Zop, I <3 that. R00k, how hard would it be, and are you willing to switch green to a different color? Please say you will.

Hey R00k, what do you mean why not play on Rage? Rage is nothing like dredd. And that would be WRONG to have rage be dredd!

Hey R00k, I love you. No homo.

Also need a correct link to the DREDD map pak up. I forget where it is, or if it works?

The podium for 1st 2nd and 3rd is awesome.

[glitch_]

Yeah.. Rage IS nothing like dredd. Rage chops up after about ten minutes into playing a match, if not earlier. Unfortunately, as the years have gone by, the West coast CA players have gone bye as well..... :[

I don't even think a West coast Clan Arena server exists anymore. heh...

Dredd runs smooth and feel's stable enough to hold some weight down.
It pings out pretty fair for both..East and West. All in all, average ping for both side's ranges from 39-79 which to me, ain't to f***in bad at all. I ping 100+ on Speak and it blows balls. Then I hear the ones with 50 & 60 pings start whining about how bad their lagging .. heh. My oration to everything is just that it'd be cool to actually get Dredd updated with a newer CA mod any time soon. I know C coding as good as I know Dread's rockets in my face...so if there'd be anything I could do to speed things up or help in any way...by all means. :>

Right, okay i feel refreshed. It's mostly changing the cfg settings. Both Bam and I started tinkering with ideas in our own corners and created a branch in the source. My latest version doesnt have a podium though it does have mvp output.. adding the q3-style podium should be a snap. Honestly I havent touched the source for a few months, if only twice this year. Though, if I bunker down I could update the mod with a slew of custom additions by monday.

I dug up my old 'work.log' file to see where i had left off...

Yea Dredd's progs.dat is different then any other CAX's progs.dat and mainly programmed by Bam and its ment to take as much advantage over CAx and its play style (including map rotation) as possible.

Of course just because Bam has been the main coder for Dredd doesn't mean you're not welcome I'm sure you'd like to see your "baby" thriving especially at this point in time in Quake 1's existence.

I know you're tired of DM3

[R00k]

There's a reason why 'we' made the mod configurable, to give players a choice.
Extending this further, helps support the goals we started off with Feeding wild dogs wont tame them but will make them return for more fresh meat

And I highly suggest these maps for your archive! http://quakeone.com/qrack/maps/maps.zip

Ya, I support idea that rage or perhaps speak should be dredd.

I mean I doubt anybody cares who or what server is who's and where it came from - we just wanna Quake!

Also if peeps want specifically DM3 they can go to sep. port for that, although watch they will just play where others happen to be at - and since speak/rage is primary - that is where they going to be at - smaller sheep (indiv. players) gather up to larger sheep groups following each other - not meant to be rude, but thas how it is. Including myself, I gots nobody else to play with!!

Is this what Quake is reduced to - just one map?? C'mon! Just that puts me off playing, srsly.

Thanks.

Sometimes I wonder if you care or not.

switching rage or speaknow to Dredd would more then likely just piss a bunch of people off while at the same time disrupt the flow of things that's currently in the works.

Dredd should stay Dredd, Rage is Rage and Speaknow is Speaknow. They all run CAx but 2 of these servers conform to the old-school "hardcore" players and dead enders(Get mad.).

Dredd's more about diversity and bringing new players in while keeping things fresh and keeping asses like Omi out. other server operators can run their servers however they see fit, if they want to be stagnant and un-robust, cool.

Dredd was pretty successful when it was ran by a group of people who wanted a "change" in their daily Quake business and I feel Dredd's credibility was damaged when it was switched over to a standard quakeone.com map pack. Dredd's oldschool map line up was prime and most everyone loved it! Thats what others including myself are trying to bring back, the idea that CAx is more thenjust DM3 24/7 with the possibility of 1 map change 2-4 times a day.

Lets not go switching servers around that don't need to be switched.

[Paradise]

Sorry, but, like maybe copy maps over form one server to another have diversified maps on Speak.

I mean, is not that I care or not, les be franks, I think very few care. And even if they do, what do they do besides talk or just play?

We been talkn n talkn, but one thing remains same - when I connect to play CA, only one server has people and it is only on DM3.

Behind complex issues, it just comes down to something simple - what you see and do.

..if you get my POV. And certainly new players - doubt care who's server is it. And this is another point, Quake community as all and things are pretty divided..

I mean, consoles are very popular now and I am starting to favor concept of (now do not blow up) that just connect and play - because all this other time doing this n that - while getting *to* play - can be spent on something else.

My last irk, is that I been not playing much - but when I do want to play - sorry, but I got 2 crappy choices - runes or dm3 - which makes me lose interest in this game altogether.

My main and last point is, diverse maps with players on them which means forced rotation of custom maps on primary server - whichever that may happen to be.

How, when or what has to be worked out by you guys - I, as others as players, have no control over that - we just want to connect n play.

Thanks.

Toilet was voted out, not by me I loved dunking people in the over sized Olympic crapbowl! A2 should be in the line up however as its a fun map!
