Grats on the new server!

But on another note, I think I'm starting to get burnt out on TF2... Just can't get myself to play for too long anymore. Soooooo, I might make like a Doug Welder and quit for a while

It helps to quit for a few months, so you don't end up hating the game.

 

[EmCeeGramr]

Well that was nice, until my performance took a sudden inexplicable drop and then I crashed for no reason.

But at least I'm reflecting like a pro.

edit: also my keyboard seemed finnicky for some reason, it would sometimes act like it lost connection and i would just stop moving for a second

No point playing if you're not having fun :]


EmCee: is it not registering multiple keystrokes? Or disconnecting (wireless?)

edit: I get a similar thing with my wireless logitech keyboard, turns out setpoint doesn't like to launch anymore so I find out batteries need recharging when I start getting disconnects <_<

 

[EmCeeGramr]

I'm not sure, sometimes I would be walking backwards or sideways and I'd come to a stop. I'd let go of the key and press it again and suddenly it's fine.

Don't leave. I'll let you backstab me as Pyro some more!

 

[Yeef]

I updated the scramble plugin to the latest version and now the pre-game scramble isn't working. Have fun with the BLU team being stacked while I'm not there. I'll go back to the old version tomorrow.

If you do add customs to it, try to be a bit more picky, only choosing the cream of the crop. High quality maps like Gullywash and Jank favorites like Pacman would be the best.

I plan on uploading all of the same custom maps. As I mentioned before, once a map reaches a certain vote threshold if it's rated low enough I'll remove it*

*I refuse to remove maps that I think are actually good, like Watermill and Gullywash.

 

[CornBurrito]

I lost it when a fucking sniper spent like an hour shooting my shit unopposed. Then all the shit got capped because the sentries were all blown up.

 

[Drkirby]

So if Gullywash had a score of 1.1, you would still refuse to remove it?

 

[Tenck]

I need to learn when not to be a damn Spy. This is getting ridiculous. Constantly getting face rolled.

Some good news is that I'm creeping up the spy knife leader board. Currently fifth and plan to learn the class much better to dethrone the rest of the dedicated spies

 

[commissar]

Seems odd.

If your keyboard is wired then perhaps it's a low key rollover, or maybe packet loss says you stopped moving?

 

[Yeef]

So if Gullywash had a score of 1.1, you would still refuse to remove it?

Yup. Gullywash is a good map. Also, i know for a fact certain people (bacon) vote every custom map a 1 just to be contrarian.

 

[Iadien]

I vote everything a 1 to remove the annoying popup.

 

[Tenck]

I vote everything a 1 to remove the annoying popup.

Haha I do that too. I had forgotten Yeef keeps track of that. I will vote honestly from now on.

The pop up only shows up when you're dead, so it's not like you have anything better to do!

 

[Iadien]

That is lies, I've seen it several times while running around.

 

[CornBurrito]

That is incorrect. I've had the voting popup appear during a firefight, temporarily fucking over my weapon switching.

 

[commissar]

Haha I do that too. I had forgotten Yeef keeps track of that. I will vote honestly from now on.

Nooo. Vote 1 to invalidate voting!

It's the only way to ruin yeef's master plan of a 24/7 Hightower server he'll claim we voted for D:


Also Yeef you know some maps are terrible or incomplete so why wait for a downvote ?

I'm thinking that awful 5cp push map with the swimming pyro and fullbright lights, but mainly that horrible A/D snow map with box houses and long ass corridors to nowhere. Urk.

 

[ArtistDude88]

I'm already finding myself complaining/whiny and angry at times while playing this game, which is totally not me, haha! So yeah, perhaps a break is for the best or I'll end up hating TF2, lol :U

Edit: And Brickyard is the only custom map you need on the server

 

[Professor Beef]

I like that map, but it's so boring to look at.

 

[mojiimbo]

I love the kill freezeframes in this game.

 

[Yeef]

That is lies, I've seen it several times while running around.

It pops up 5 seconds after you die once you've been playing a map for at least 3 minutes. if you're on BLU sometimes respawn times might be short enough that it pops up as you're leaving spawn, but it should never pop up during a firefight unless someone is right outside of spawn. I'll look into it.

There is an option to make 1. 'Dismiss' instead of 1 star, so I think I'll enable that.

Nooo. Vote 1 to invalidate voting!

It's the only way to ruin yeef's master plan of a 24/7 Hightower server he'll claim we voted for D:

if I went by what you guys voted it'd be a 23/7 Badwater server. The other hour would be Steel.

Also Yeef you know some maps are terrible or incomplete so why wait for a downvote ?

Inertia. I am lazy and need excuses to continue being so! Also, removing a bunch of maps at once means i don't have to do it often.

I'm thinking that awful 5cp push map with the swimming pyro and fullbright lights, but mainly that horrible A/D snow map with box houses and long ass corridors to nowhere. Urk.

Waterway and Frozen Assets respectively. Waterway i thought looked decent when i first added it, but upon playing it I realized it was terrible. Frozen Assets I thought looked horrible from the outset, but it was part of that (A)Symmetry contest, so I felt obligated to add it since I was adding the rest.

[EDIT] Also, i was doing the SourceTV thing at the beginning of hightower and it was working fine, so my hunch that it was the old host was correct.

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

Tonight was a good night.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

You got a few facestabs on me.

And I hope those Pyros took my advice seriously, blast Dead Ringers to a wall so they don't escape!

 

[MrOogieBoogie]

I gotta say, GAF is probably the best Spy-checking server I've played on. I absolutely decimate every other server, though:

Those two are from tonight on another server.

 

[Sciz]

I gotta say, GAF is probably the best Spy-checking server I've played on. I absolutely decimate every other server, though:

Janky-Ass has always had a long, proud tradition of infuriatingly dedicated spies, which has lead to another long, proud tradition of murdering every last one of the bastards on sight.

Not me :/

I'm still working on it though!

 

[Tenck]

Yeah Gaf server makes you dislike spy sometimes. Then there's those moments all their spy checking doesn't help >

 

[Cloudius12]

oh and Congrats on the new server! With that setup, I'm going to defrag my tf2 files to see if that helps.

 

[Professor Beef]

I want to make a spray that isn't blurry and/or stretched to shit. Do I have to have the picture in a specific format or something? No matter how big or small my pic is, it always looks awful.

 

[Tenck]

Facestab or Backstab? Help me decide guys.

 

[Sgt.Pepper]

Totally facestab.

 

[Yeef]

Facestab on the medic. It's pretty obvious.

 

[Wendel Clark]

256x256. from what I understand, it's going to be blurry no matter what when you're up close to it.

 

[Tenck]

Got credited as a backstab though

I will miss Janky Server 3.0. Wonky hitboxes were fun :'(

Edit:Zerokku showing you how to handle spies at close range

Resize largest dimension to 256 pixels, keeping the aspect ratio the same. Adjust canvas size to 256x256 with gray background. Magic wand one of the gray parts, hold shift, magic wand the other gray part. Select inverse. Create new alpha channel. Paint center of image white. Click RGB channel visibility. Save as .vtf spray with alpha.

Really, what could be easier?!

I thought I've seen it pop up when I'm alive! Maybe I just hate popups in general, like strange weapons all the time, but I don't want to disable trades.

 

[Clydefrog]

The only thing that could make that better is if the people on the top and bottom were on opposite teams, then everyone in the middle did explode in console simultaneously and the guy on top got a mantreads kill on the guy on bottom.

I like how you make me wonder what your reply is.

Kind of OT, but I swear last night whenever we got into fucking medic melee battles I'd hit you twice, and THEN YOU'D ONE SHOT ME WITH A CRIT. 3 FUCKING TIMES IN A ROW.............
