Thanks a lot for this, i think that would become handy!  msn008.gif 

I think, we can do a public server from it with good pings and without stinger noob maps, i think skilled players will like it  :)))

New ( votable ) Mutator added to the server:


Quote from: Parser;25478086
(http://fraghouse.beyondunreal.com/screenshots/rlv2/rlthumb2.jpg) [size="6"]Ripper Lite v2[/size]

[size="4"]What's this then?[/size]

Ripper Lite is a "port" of the original Ripper from Unreal Tournament - a popular weapon that fires sharp blades. The most common uses of this weapon are beheading enemies and spamming corridors with the bouncing blades. This version, however, improves on my original Ripper UT3 port by following the blueprint of the original UT Ripper.

ripperlitev2.zip (http://download.beyondunreal.com/fileworks.php/fraghouse/ut3/ripperlitev2.zip) (591KB) from FileWorks.

[size="4"]Usage[/size]

You can use the "Ripper Lite - Replace Stinger" mutator to (surprise surprise) replace the Stinger with this new weapon. A better option, however, would be to use Epic's Weapon Replacement mutator to replace a weapon of your choice with the Ripper instead. Since whichever patch, the custom ammo pickups will now appear as well using Epic's mutator, so I would advise using it!

[size="4"]I hate this mutator! Where can I vent my anger?[/size]

Parser was responsible for this - you can find him at http://fraghouse.beyondunreal.com (http://fraghouse.beyondunreal.com)

[size="4"]A quick note[/size]

Although it sounds evil of me, I'd like to request that this mutator isn't cooked by a 3rd party again - it's nothing personal, but from what I've read it seems the sounds weren't replaced, so the weapon makes no noise on the PS3 version, and I feel this misrepresents the quality of the mutator. When/if Epic fixes this Atrac copyright issue, I'll do a full port for the PS3 version, but I don't see any point in compromising the mutator for PS3 because if people start doing that it will give Epic less incentive to fix the compatibility issues!

.. Enjoy!

Very nice, I hope I can catch someone and play some decent games there!

and fuck yeah the conundrum! I've always loved this map but no one seems to know/like it, the design is complex but when you get how it works it is great!

Post by: joaoFCB on Thu 26.11.2009 17:00:36
loved theconudrum.
a bit big. but it can be a really awsome map when well-played. it has lots of places to hide, and to explore glitches. too abd there are no jump boots...lots of hammerjup spots. but they are still very usefull without the boots. don't like the fact there's a nighshade...but it's a good idea that it can't get into upper levels through elevator!
think this map has potential if noobs don't "waste" it.
also don't like there are 2 berseks and a udamage close to each other...
it's possible to get 199 hp and 200 armor. also usefull.
ah, and plenty of avrils, thats nice

Votable mutator added:

Quote from: HO0815XX;25483764
Name:ShockSniperIII
Version:1.1Final         
Compatibility:1.2 and up   
Description: The Shocksniper III is a ShockRifle with Zoom and Headshotcapatibility instead of the Shockball.
     
Comments:The main difference between this weapon and my UltraInstagib is: The ShockSniper consumes ammo and you can set damage and ammo amount.     
Screenshot:none 
Credits: Me, Parser for his WeaponTexturepack, Epic, and especially Realpope for his request creating this and betatesting.

i've tried it! it looks great :D
good old zoom Insta lol
only usefull for fun. for more serious matches shouldn't be used


Title: Re: Dedicated server

Yes, I love that weapon. I have that mutator on my BR Server.

server ping = 115

another server I can't play on then

also this shock sniper replaces the shock not the sniper, so no combos which is really lame

Post by: PainSavour on Fri 27.11.2009 02:44:48
60-70 ping on an empty server. Ok for me.  :))) Though 10 players max is not much for vctf. But then again custom servers rarely have 10 players...

Ripper doesn't seem to have any sounds?


Title: Re: Dedicated server
Post by: Jelle Mees on Fri 27.11.2009 09:31:41
I don't crap money you guys. If I see that the server is being used a lot I might increase the amount of slots. But as long as there are not 10 DARK members playing at the same time, ther's no use for more slots.

2 new votable WARFARE maps added to the server:

Quote from: Tolstoy the Cat;25482812
Name:WAR-RedRoute, WAR-RedRouteRemix
Version:       1.0
Compatibility:   PC, PS3
Description:     A claustraphobic bloodbath based around what was once the longest corridor in Europe, and was famously never used in the filming of Blake's 7
Comments:      RedRoute gets ridiculous and annoying at around 10 players. RedRouteRemix can support many more players and will be preferred by most people

New votable CTF/Greed map on the server:
Quote from: Gloryroader;25488595
Name: Castle Discordia
Version: 390
Compatibility: PC
Description: Far beyond Fedic, held by the Beam of the Bear above the vortex, stands Castle Discordia.  Known to cause permanent psychosis under prolonged exposure - which can even lead to suicide - this is the last place anyone would want to engage in a tournament battle; but since when did Liandri give a damn about their contestants?
Comments: This one was a long time coming because my gaming PC went down for a while thanks to Microsoft's XP Service Pack 3.  :mad:  But I'm back up and running and got it finished!  :D

Credits: Special thanks to the great Stephen King for creating such a bleak and terrifying image as that of his own Castle Discordia beyond Fedic as read in "The Dark Tower" series.

New ( votable ) CTF map on the server:
Quote from: Daze;25498169
Name: Jugo (CTF-Jugo)
Version: 1.0 (Final)
Compatibility: PC UT3
Description: Jugo is a tight and hectic CTF map set in an overgrown factory thingy, hit by a dramatic storm. It features lots of weather effects such as realistic rain, drips running down windows, scripted thunder (including actual bolts for once), electric wires swaying in the wind (set up using the in-editor constraints), and a swarm of birds fleeing the storm in the sky. All this does drag down the framerate quite a bit, but it's still (for me at least :p) better than most of the bad places in the stock maps, and on low/medium quality (without most of the particle emitters) framerate pretty much goes through the roof. :rolleyes: I do recommend playing it on high details with full Post Processing though, for full immersion! The map features lots of custom materials and textures, two custom meshes, a number of custom sounds and I also produced the soundtrack myself. The point here initially was to push Cascade to its limits and create a believable storm, but I'm quite happy with the layout as well - and when put together I think I pulled something rather interesting off afterall!

Thanks a bunch to all those who took the time to check the Beta out and for the feedback I got.

New ( votable ) Warfare map on the server:
Quote from: nomadicus;25497942
Name: WAR-Primeval_SE
Version: Final
Compatibility: UT3 Patch V1.3
Description: An enhanced remake of UT2004 ONS-Primeval. This Second Edition's default is as true to the original as reasonably could be made. Optionally, WAR-Primeval_SE has four additional link setups including the Orb, more nodes, sniper platforms, and DarkWalkers.
Comments: The PS3 version need validation that all five link setups appear in the UI.

Eeuhm, I test every upload I do. I add the map to the server, then join the server and vote for it. Then I test if the download works. Try again, and if it doesn't work, tell me wich error you get please.
