Finally !!

[Cain]

Well I think we have finally gotten our DOD:S server where I wanted it to be.

It has taken almost two months and a lot of time, work and a lot of testing, so I appreciate everyone who helped us test over the last two months...

I confirmed yesterday that people (CLRs, and more importantly non-CLRs) LOVE custom Maps, and most people prefer FF on. If you look at the stats you will see yesterday was BY FAR our biggest day in terms of player connections....


Here are some of the things we have that are non-standard but make our server more fun:

SourceMod - the mother of all plugins, allows very cool Admin functions, serves as a base for many other plugins, and provides player feedback like nextmap, timeleft, ff status, and so forth.

FF on, with Reflect Damage, and a TK Manager.

Custom maps on a fast re-direct with compressed files. (that new Saints re-make is really fun!)...

Dead Talk - you can always talk to everyone on your team with voice whether you are dead or not.

Psycho Stats, and an in-game interface to check your rank and the top 10.

Scrolling text announcing server, settings and rules.

I had a plugin that told you what Country the players were connecting from, but I don't think anyone cared about it so I pulled it. If it gets updated to show what State they are connecting from, I would install that.

Advanced Weapons Logging for DODS to include headshots.. Our friend Pablo actually created this. DODS does not have a HS event, nor does it do weapons logging or hit location, all that is an add-on to make the stats function properly.

We now have custom sprays enabled, with a new plugin that allows an admin to see who sprayed any particular spray, then remove it and punish the sprayer if necessary. (Vito we all need cool, custom Sprays now!!)

I am considering allowing map-voting, provided I can make it work the way we want. At present if only 3 people out of 32 voted and two voted yes, the map would change to what they voted. I'll keep looking for map voting such that the majority of the server would have to vote affirmatively for the map to change.

I'm also checking into SourceTV.

Any other ides or suggestions, I am certainly open to listen to and consider.

Thanks for all the hard work Cain:2thumbs:

The server is doing great with a great group of players and lots of new faces joining in the fun!!!

[juneau]

DoD:S is a really a fun game to play. Mainly in part to your hard work Cain. :2thumbs:

[Trooper110]

Agreed, I've been having a blast, see a lot of people pretty regularly and there's only been one time where the server was really dead that I was on. DougBob and I shot each other for a while :D Thanks for all the time, hard work, and money you put in to this Cain, the server definitely kicks ass!

[Duke{CLR}]

Good Job Cain! It seems like you have it tuned just right. Boy it really stinks being alone in my in laws house with a 57 ping and a laptop that isn't working. :cry:

[Apache Warrior]

Dead Talk - you can always talk to everyone on your team with voice whether you are dead or not.
Be aware that if you kill me I am directing my team to where you are. :mutley:

I thought there was a plugin that only changed the map if a minimum number of people voted. :scratch:
Maybe I am thinking of CSS. :oops: :D

Ahhh, that is you ?? You are in the top 50 of our stats today !! I reset the stats to only count the ones since I installed your new weapons logging plugin that logs headshots...

Send me a PM when you get a chance, Sirex and I cannot get the streaming PS stats to work properly....

Take care my friend, and thank you for the HS logging, I'm going to keep bumping the Thread on Allied Modders..

i do throw them sometimes i hit a lag spike and they appear back in my hand after i let them go:scratch::cry::pissed:. Sirex has seen it happen, he was laughing his head off.

[Apache Warrior]

I always laugh too, at how many times I see you die from your own cooked grenades. It is funny because you usually still get the other guy too. :D

As always: love the server and it is set up really well now! I don't play anywhere else if I can help it. A friendly fire tweak has been suggested in a new post. Please let me know if I am crazy or not.

[Raddix64]

I am also loving psychostats! Most punch kills for the day! I would like to thank all the snipers and machine gunners for their assistance today.

[Apache Warrior]

I love walking up to a sniper and standing next to him without him knowing I am there. Until I punch him out. :D
Last night I ran past one sniper and punched out his partner. Then turned and took him out too. :mutley:
There used to be a group on Cain's that used the tag {CLP}. Cains Lair Punchers. :D

i remember that i was part of em on dod v1.3 was alot easier then cus you couldnt hear the foot steps.

[Hammy]

I'd like our server to give out ice cream everytime I headshot Bar.

Cotton Candy for when Jeffro goes down in a dusty pile of eyebrows.

Peanuts for when Apache or DougBob eat a bullet.

And I'd like a corn dog for when I go on a killstreak of any kind....


Yup.

I'd be happy then.
Let me know when you get to that Cain (LOL)

[Nauticas]

First off, Jeffro and I are both alright. The hurricane did not damage either of our homes.

2nd, when will the instant kill Jeffro button mod be installed? I think everyone should only have to press CTRL J (for jackass) to kill Jeffro at anytime, even when he's dead already.
