  • What is thunderwalker? find out what you are missing.

    Wanted to highlight the differences from original 3wave CTF

    WEAPONS

    Grappling Harpoon The grappling harpoon replaced the grappling hook. The function is about the same, however, the model is a little easier to aim and has a more technological feel to it. It fires incredibly fast.

    Airfist A nice defensive weapon that will help to deflect incoming fire and incoming baddies.

    Shotgun MkII The shotgun has been retooled for faster firing.

    Less-Emphasized Rocket Launcher The rocket launcher's damage has been decreased some to put a greater emphasis on skill, and less on getting a lucky shot.

    Regeneration Rune Improved The regeneration rune now kicks you up to 200 health.

    Destroy Rune (Impulse 181) Destroys the rune you are currently carrying, allowing you to pick up another one if you wish. Works one time per life.

    Activate Teleporter (Impulse 200) Teleport to a random location on the map. Works once time per life.

    two weapons replaced

    nailgun was replaced with Laser Cannon Han Solo would be proud. A bright-red beam will burn your enemies into a well-done carcass.

    lightning gun replaced with Sniper Rifle One shot. One kill. If you miss, you are a sitting duck though. 5 shots per life, but if you capture flag you get 5 more.

    NEW RUNES

    Rune of Protection This rune offers several benefits:

    * Limited Immunity to "splash" damage. You take small damage from splash (ie, explosions)
    * Immunity to Slime
    * Immunity to Drowning
    * Resistance to Lava
    * However your grapple will be reset if out when hit by splash.

    Rune of Vampirism A person with this rune receives 2/3 the amount of damage they do added to their health to a maximum of 200 hitpoints. Health below 200 will not "rot" away.

    Rune of Living Armor The person's armor is magically brought to life, and will repair itself over time to a maximum of 250 points. All subsequent armor touched after this rune is grabbed is red armor.

    Rune of Cloaking A person with this rune is invisible, as if they had the Ring of Shadows, except when they fire their weapon or when they are damaged, during which time they become visible.

      Where are your servers located and I did not see a good archive of them, where do I connect if I want to play, to which one and how many of them are there?

        Paradise, you need to read the post above, in the installation instructions (which is a short 3 paragraphs) it says everything. But the server is dell2.linuxdude.com:27500

          Heh, I read everything. I DO read everything before replying.

          Location of the server as into physical, where, what country?

          There is a difference to where is the server and what is the server. At his forum I saw another one, an expert one, seems as there is more than one server.

          Reason I asked is ping issue.

            The F8S Thunderwalker server is located in Florida (USA) on a T1 connection.
            F8S Thunderwalker Expert dell2.linuxdude.com (216.86.167.22)

            That is the main server we play on.

            The 2nd server that is usually up is located in Minnesota (USA) on cable connection with 1 meg upload.
            Master's Monster Mash masterzfa.dyndns.org (71.82.131.67)

            We might be able to get another server up in Arizona on a T3 connection in the never future too.

            I live in Pennsylvania on a Comcast Cable connection get around 60 ping to the F8S server.

              Phua! Good lookin' out! I am there. I thought it was Europe.

              You mentioned somewhere QW. Me being onto DP, acting as a double client, can I play? Do I have to install anything special?

              How is server activity? When are players onto it? Your servers need to be added to the server list to see who and how many people are onto it.

              Thanks.

                  I just use ezquake, so I am not sure.

                  Feel free and download the zip file and test it out. The F8S server is up all the time.

                  Weekly we play Thursday and Saturday nights @ 9pm CST. We usually play for 2 to 3 hours and we have from 8 to 14 people most nights, but the server can handle up to 24 people if needed.

                  I am planning on a bigger once a month event too.

                  F8S server is also listed here

                  http://www.quakeservers.net/quakewor...r_status/2031/

                  In the near future I am will be posting screenshots of the maps we play the most.

                  Here is one of the more popular maps we play, twctf1 Cheat Complex

                    I updated our files on our site now

                    ThunderWalker CTF 24 bit package (260 megs)

                    ThunderWalker CTF basic (110 megs)

                    In comparison the 24 bit version works great on my AMD 64 3000+ Venice with Geforce 7600 GT and 2 gigs of ram.

                    On my son's Celeron D 420 1.6ghz with Radeon 9800 PRO 128MB and 256mb of system ram. the basic install works good.
