Ok, Paintball2 is not a jump mod. It never was intended to be a jump mod. I don't know why people are trying to turn it into one. There's already a jump mod with an active community for which all these jump maps were designed.
Here's a tutorial on how to get it installed and start playing:
1) Download and install the Quake2 demo. I grabbed it here: http://www.download.com/Quake-II-demo/3000-7563_4-10243475.html
2) Download the Q2Jump client. Extract the files into your quake2 demo directory (where quak2.exe is): http://q2jump.wireplay.co.uk/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=3
3) Make a "jump" directory in the quake2 demo directory, then make a "maps" directory under that. Move all of your quake2 jump maps from paintball2/pball/maps to q2demo/jump/maps (yes, move. They don't belong in paintball2).
4) Load up q2jump.exe, set your video preferences and controls, then type "connect 195.224.41.30:27950" at the console (or connect to the server of your choice).
How to play with paintball2.exe:
1) Create a directory called "jump" in your paintball2 directory and a "maps" directory inside of the jump directory.
2) Move all of your Quake2 jump maps from pball/maps to jump/maps (yes, move, they don't belong in paintball2).
3) Download the Quake2 demo. Install it wherever you want. Copy the players directory and pak0.pak into your new jump directory.
4) Open paintball2 and type the following at the console:
game jump
set cl_hudstyle 0
connect 195.224.41.30:27950
Note: You will end up downloading a bunch of files. Some of these may be obtained from http://q2jump.wireplay.co.uk/. Others you will just be stuck downloading.
If you want to run a jump server with paintball2, you can download the server files and add "+set game jump" to your server command line. You will probably be better off running something like R1Q2 than paintball2, though. Really, in general, you should be using a different game engine that's more designed for Quake2 jumping, but whatever.

Two <3s in one week! Thanks a lot.
-
You can also use the mod with many of the free (improved) Quake 2 clients, which are also listed on the site.
-
I've been an active member of the Q2Jump community for some time now, and there are so many more benefits to jumping on actual jump servers than these DP servers running jump maps. It's just pointless. You can't even store/kill, and the blocking is a whole other problem in itself. In Q2Jump player entities are..."ghosts." In other words, you can go through other players without them getting in your way.
-
So no more noobs building towers.

So no more noobs building towers.
Psst. That's my strategy on 89% of the jump maps.
-
Ha wow bit mate... but yeah i was an old q2 jumper... it is a lot of fun.. you can get admin once you get good.. the benefits will be no clip.. so if you cant do the jump or want to float around. They also have hook which is a cool feature. I haven't played q2 jump mod in sometime now.. If you have any questions about it or anything get on irc connect to Quake net #q2.jump Talk to Rambler or Neur0.. They are who wrote the mod. I don't think Neur0 is to active though but rambler should be.
-
Rambo is still active, not sure about Neur0 though..
-
lvl 9 ftw in q2jump haha. with the special player glow colors for each level!
-
I'm pretty sure this thread only applies to spook and superman, the two main dp server jump map playing kids.
-
i went cold turkey on that ;PPPPP
-
...4) Open paintball2 and type the following at the console:
game jump
set cl_hudstlye 0
connect 195.224.41.30:27950
Note: You will end up downloading...
Isn't it supposed to be
"set cl_hudstyle 0"
instead of
set cl_hudstlye 0???
-
lol yup.
-
Fixed.
-
Glad to see how everything works out :)
-
To bad there is no grapple in the game. If there was jumping would be obsolete.

/me gets Fembo+ on the phone
-
mmm fembot...mmmm

Could someone mirror the files from step 2:
2) Download the Q2Jump client. Extract the files into your quake2 demo directory (where quak2.exe is): http://q2jump.wireplay.co.uk/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=viewdownload&cid=3
I'm being blocked from the site.
Oh and what does +game jump actually do?
-
Paintball 2 is not a jump mod. Just go somewhere else and ask for the files or find them on your own. This site and forum are dedicated to Paintball 2.
+game jump tells the client to run the game from the /jump/ directory, utilizing the engine but not the Paintball 2 graphics, etc.
-
Although u say its not a jump mod people are still going to create jump maps on dp so u should warn them before they start that dp is not a jump mod.
-
wasp, you knew full well this is not a jump mod and yet you created a jump map.
-
The jump mod is way better as well. U dont get newbs in the way because players go through each other.
-
DP is not a jump mod... yet it is a jump mod
-
Hey i get a error it says couldn't load pics/colormap.pcx how can i fix it?

So is it a mod for DPB 2?

actually there's no reason to ban him. He didn't break the rules in any way. All we can do is think that he's crazy or stupid..

I thought this was a mod for DPB 2 because he tells you how to play it with DPB 2.
-
that suicide option is still on the table.

Excuse me?
Someone said that it was strange to have a mod for a mod. So I'm confused.
BTW, Check the date before saying stuff. I said that before I got banned.

I tried running the .exe file. But it crashes whenever I start it.

Go on ic3y Jump, then you play the q2 Jumpmod

Is it possible to play this single player? Kind of like how you can start your own LAN server in Paintball 2 and play by your self?

Once you've gotten all the necessary files and placed them in the right place, either by doing what jitspoe said or by connecting to the icey's jump mod server (if you connect, you'd have to manually move the maps to paintball2/jump/maps), then you can play the mod offline. First, you have to run the mod (type: game jump), then you choose whatever map you want to play (type: map ariejump47) and play.
Normal paintball2 jump maps do not work as they should on the q2jump mod, but most of them have been fixed to some degree on icey's jumpmod server. To get them, you'd have to play all of them on the server.
Here are some commands you should know though.
!help this command will show you some commands that you can use
maplist # you can see what maps the server has, the # signifies a number
score you can see your times with this
cl_hudstyle 0 will make the game use the correct hud
team easy makes you play on the practice mode
- store saves your location
- hook/unhook hook to shoot, unhook to release. Good for changing your location
team hard use this mode once you want to get a time
kill will make you restart from the start or the storepoint
inven opens the menu, use the [ and ] keys to choose stuff
Edit: Spelling mistakes etc.
-
In addition to joonas' helpful post, if you downloaded the files from ic3y's q2jump server, you still need to get those from the website or you won't have the gamex86.dll you require.
-
Oh yeah, that file. The 1.0 version is old though, so use this one instead (goes into the paintball2/jump folder).
What's new:
-Timer starts once you press something, not the moment you spawn
-The timer uses 3 decimals instead of 2 now
-I don't know
-
By the way, if you want to see the top times and scores of all the maps played on ic3y's server, click this. http://www.ic3y.de/jumpscores/_index1.html

This is a mega old post but the next server ip is 85.17.208.106:27950, not whats listed right now
-
Noob question, but why doesn't a dj script work on that server? is there a separate config file?
-

Yes there is, at least for me. It should be under C:\games\Paintball2\jump\configs if you installed PB to the normal place and have played the q2 jump server before.

the quake 2 demo doesnt work for me it has more or quit in more then 2 websites uninstall and quit when ever i go to quit it exits it and its not on my computer.i go to websites but theres basically nothing to do on them that relates to it. plz help me.

I didn't really follow through with that you just said, but you don't need to get the quake 2 demo to play the jumpmod. Ic3y has a q2jump mod server that can be played right through paintball2, no downloading is necessary.
Edit: I looked at the cnet site jitspoe had on the first post. One review there said that the file doesn't work and that you should get the demo through steam instead.
-

Separate config. Use http://files.ic3x.de/programs/pb2q2jump_ic3y/PB2Q2Jump_07.exe
Uncheck move all jumpmaps (there is a bug)
Ingame on q2jump -> bind space +dj

joonas ty for that but it didnt really help,i want to play the other server the 94.136.46.3:27950 but it wont let me it keeps coming when trying to run it through paintball.exe up with contains illegal bytes.what do i need to do to fix that.

Playing on that server is going to require some annoying procedures that you need to do. You can't play on it through pb2 because the server doesn't allow you to have modified files. It's like that to ensure people can't cheat.
Do this:
1. Download and install Q2.
2. Download and install the mod called R1Q2 (http://www.r1ch.net/stuff/r1q2/download/r1q2-websetup.exe).
3. Edit the config file with your personal settings. Q2 doesn't store them if you change them while ingame.
4. Make sure that your antivirus program doesn't remove the anticheat.dll file.
5. Move all the maps and textures into their correct places because downloading in Q2 is very slow.

Well you would have to have the anticheat.dll that you need for the wireplay server, as well as a modified client like r1q2 that will run the anticheat.dll. I think he has better things to do with his time than managing all that business.

Of course, he's taking a mirror selfie... ;D

The game was released in late 97, so a majority of original players are going to be around his age, mostly older. The era before his, like wootwoot and all them, are even older. Gives you younger guys a good perspective on how old the game is compared to how old you are, and that most ideas being put out now have been suggested many many times before :)

Sad to say, im from this time. Played with both nook1e and wootwoot. Wootwoot disappeared when nook1e came around. Coincidence? You tell me. Wootwoot had never been seen since he left but remains the best to ever play. Other legends include glockglock, trippin, 0pt!kz and many more even I have forgotten. I've spoken to a few over the past year. Most of us range from 25-35 now.

Anyone have a working download link for the jump mod? Wireplay website has been down for a while.
-
Tastyspleen has two versions. Q2PRP, and R1Q2, you need the r1q2 one to player on the old wireplay sever. Wireplay had a change from q2jump.wireplay to q2jump.net, and they haven't migrated well. Anyways, here's the link to the download page. http://q2s.tastyspleen.net/
