For the few of you who missed them - servers are now back online. Due to some personal issues this weekend (death) - the servers didn't come back online after being taken down friday.
The reason for the takedown: Moving servers to another Rack.
I'll regret this thread i know... better to just let it die. But, it's not called fed pick... but fedpik.dk. It's NOT fat cock, but fatcock. fed = fat, pik = cock. It all startet out because it was easy to remember. When giving a name like that to your friends they won't be asking twice about it. I am also the owner of phenylalanin.dk - could you imagine the chaos when 8 people on teamspeak has to type /connect q3.phenylalanin.dk ? - q3.fedpik.dk was just so much more easy. And, after 4-5 years, the name just stuck.
It does... but every last one of them was semi-down yesterday. You could join but not race. (i think this is described in a bug-report somewhere). It's a goshdang cirkus running gameservers sometimes.
40 posts, including this one - and the starting post. In roughly twelve hours. Of which, THREE was nothing but stupidity and negativity. (not even including the "AMG NOT TEH POST AGIAN"-comment).
I check the forums five or ten times a day. And frankly i'm about to quit it.
Once upon a time, there were people in the forum who made fun "mods" and everyone was happy. Now, i'm afraid to post my layouts and even post at all because of the negative commenting on everything!
I know this thread will be flamed aswell, i actually hope it does. Since it will really show who are the real buggers of the forum.
Somebody makes a post about a pass, and really, it was a mediocre pass. two second download - and i moved on to the next post. But somebody had to raise their arms to get noticed, WHY??
I'd really like an alternative LFS-forum, so i could choose. If anyone, and i mean anyone made a negative comment, BANG, banned... for life! I don't want to wake up in the morning, in my vacation - to look at "YUO AR TEH LFS-CRACKERS!!!" and "NOOB"-sentences.
I guess, what i'm trying to say is. And i know it has been said before, if you don't have anything nice to say. Shut up!
I'm thinking about making a standard text, that i'll copy and paste every time someone makes a negative comment. But, i hope there is a rule against that!
I can't see why this forum has to end up this bad? i spend a lot of times in the Miata.net forums, 10 times the member-count of this forum. And not all the trouble! Because people meet up to talk about something they care about.
i know that is a lot of words, without saying anything... hence the OFF TOPIC forum-branch!
When pushing the question mark, next to the "chatroom/møderum" button in the serverlist - it says "yada yada yada Norma(n) chat" - that should be "yada yada yada Norma(L) chat"
I'm from Denmark... to you, thats the capital of Sweden... which again, is just the northern part of Russia... god i hate americka! Which to me, is just the place where everyone from Europe, who couldn't really get their stuff together, went!!
Bummer. I saw that in your earlier post but it doesn't seem to work. Well, i must be doing something wrong. They are called FE6R_FIX.lyt and FE6_FIX.lyt - but nothing happens..
EDIT> Well, it works now - maybe you have to load them once via the /autoX -command? I dunno, but i'm happy - THX!
If the topic is scripting, this is ON topic.
If the topic is "which actions should cause script runs" (which it is) - this is off topic, so first things first: Sorry, but!
One thing i've really been missing is serverside scripting, eg. If somebody does something -> then do this action. Like lfslapper. Lfs-lapper does need a lot more work, but it's great.
Maybe the possibility to force setups, etc. - I'm really into these "just for kicks"-servers, like city life (cops and robbers) - but why not make it possible to do an action, like change user1's skin to bright red, if he brakes the law? (100km/h+ / hits someone / does burnouts)
A true scripting tool, serverside, would even make the Soccer-idea possible - just by running a "script" on the server.
I wouldn't want the server component to be too Call of duty'ish (YUCK!) - but their gamestate-scripting-thingie really add a lot of possibilties. And still restricts true mod'ing - but come on, please give us the possibility to spawn an AI UF1 ball on the soccerfields
But to get this post a little bit back on track, maybe i should just add, i hope we will be able to use these actions serverside too!
