Team Fortress and such....

Flanders is running TF at flanders.quake1.net port 26002

Haha

[To others: Flanders is a European server. We still need one in the USA.]

We're building the community on irc.

Baker it'd be nice if you could idle there. We are hosting a .txt file until we get a webpage up. I talked to a few other people so several servers will be going up.

Thanks for the offer. I guess I'll idle there and see what happens, but I'm not around quite as much as is perceived

In general forums work a lot better for me because there isn't the expectation of an immediate response.

[One thing that will suck, is that I know relatively little about Team Fortress.]

However, the source code is in the server .zip. I might try to add vote-map into it sometime in the next week.

[Baker]

Last note for the night ...

I think I'm going to add vote-map to the server sometime tomorrow; and maybe add pq_teamscores support as well (if I can figure it out). And see about making available a Qrack model and textures pack optional download.

[ShockLTK]

sounds good. btw, i loaded it all up to check out the textures and maps and play around a little. what is with the like bouncing of the crosshair like footsteps? that's kind of annoying. lol

I think that is the "true target" crosshair Rook implemented from DarkPlaces. The crosshair goes to where it will strike a target.

I'll go through settings and see if I can write up a FAQ or something.

I have the NQ Team Fortress 2.5 with the vote-map code merged in ... except that for some reason the impulses don't seem to trigger nor do the binds get sent. In addition, I'm not 100% sure what #PRINT_HIGH in a bprint means or if that was the right substitution.

However it is merged in there (not as easy as I thought it would be) and it does compile with no errors.

http://www.quake-1.com/files/sourcec...map_almost.zip

Anyway, the code is close and I'm uploading it so...

a) I don't lose it and have a copy of it available before I start playing around.
b) In the event that someone l33t wants to look at it and see what the issue is. Just run preqcc to precompile and then proqcc to compile. (I could also use FTEQCC but I'm sticking with the intended compiler until it works).

It's close. Now it is a matter of trying to determine how Team Fortress handles the impulses, which is a little different. Also, I would prefer to add in a "levels" command to list the maps available.

[Trickle]

I'd totally play on this, I love TF. its going to be interesting with no bhopping.

[Trickle]

we should organize these nights, I see a lot of mods on nq come and go because there are never any meets.

[avirox]

You can use the opensourced megatf CE vote code if you wish. It needs either CPQWSV, mvdsv (or mvdsv xe), or ftesv though.
http://avirox.amnesiagames.com/Sourc...illa%20&%20CE/

PS. also note that if you use ftesv, it's multi-compatible between quakeworld and netquake, so you wont have to recompile tf 2.9 as a qw mod.

Well with the amount of players it looks like we will have, we are going to have public servers to play on with people playing whenever they want to. However, it is a goal to eventually have enough players to run some type of league. Whether it's a quad league, or 5v5, or a pick up league. We'll see how it all turns out.

[Baker]

Thanks Avirox, I'll take a look at the vote code in there and see if I can either use that or if it can guide me as to where I need to check the impulse commands.

I've not tried that and someday I will definitely need to experiment with that. I think that for something non-competitive it would be fine.

In a competitive game, I think a problem that would quickly be encountered is that that an experienced Quakeworld player would be able to utilize the bunnyhop and would get to fire sooner due to using predicted shots, in effect allowing the to shoot earlier than someone using the realtime minus ping that effectively is how NetQuake works.

At least this is how I'd theoretically think it would probably work.
