As of about 3 pm this afternoon, it has been compiling for an entire day, and I am afraid that its gonna take a day and a half just like the last time.

After experimenting a bit more, I was finally able to get up to the vent.  Tough jump.  I like it .

Is a trick jump the only way to get to the vent/ladder?  I'd advise against that.   Map routes should be as accessable to new players as possible.  They have a hard enough time just trying to shoot people -- no need to give them an even further disadvantage.

Yeah, even trying to trick jump, I still cannot seem to get up there nor up on the roof on the other side, but I haven't spent enough time exploring yet. . .

Yeah, I planned for everything to be centered on the middle, with separate paths (hence the crawlspace and special jump spots) between each base with some more stuff in the middle.  I just have the basics for now, I have not added in any barrels or boxes or anything yet.  Those are coming with the next release.  Now refresh my memory, does vis conk out when you have over 6000 portalclusters?

The way I had to do it when I had Verizon DSL is I had to pass the IP address from my router to the computer I wanted to be a server, kinda putting it in the firewall DMZ too.

On build 14 I had to go into the Controls/Misc options, set Page Up as my Chase Camera button, and then started a game.  Once you are set as an observer, press page up and then click the left mouse button until you are in first person view.

Map Graveyard / Castle Wars

I'm almost done with this map.  I have been working on it in my spare time, and here pretty soon it should be finished.

You can grab it here (EDIT - now points to new map file):
http://www.taloncomputing.us/files/paintball2/castle_wars_beta2.bsp

Downloads should be pretty fast and dont worry about using up my bandwidth.  I have plenty.

EDIT - Got the screenshots done

Completed Maps / Re: DarkAges new map beta.

« on: December 13, 2005, 11:53:01 AM »

map compiled in around 2 to 4 hours

How did you get it to compile so fast?  I am making a map that is way smaller than that, but it took the stuff that comes with BSP a day and a half to compile it.

O_O  Very nice.  How long did it take you to compile this map?

I am not sure what UDP ports are blocked though.  I wish I knew that way I could set up my own server on the dedicated server I manage that will go through the proxy filter.

Yeah, the university I go to uses the N2H2 Bess internet filter that is set up with a proxy.

I don't have a problem with this per se (from my home internet connection, at the college I go to, I have not been able to connect to any outside servers.  Maybe because of the proxy server that they use?  Maybe another feature to add:  proxy support), but I just wanted to do this as a public service.  I will have something similar to what I am thinking about on http://www.taloncomputing.us/

I will post here when I have that complete.  It is kinda incorporated with that XML feed thing that I posted about in the features request thread.

Server Discussion / Servers List

« on: August 09, 2005, 04:11:22 PM »

Is there a way we could get a list of all the servers started besides http://www.dpball.com/serverlist.php

and keep it updated.

IE so that someone can use the \connect command to join to an IP address if they cannot update the servers list inside the game?

Here is the current list from http://www.dpball.com/serverlist.php :

69.178.49.217:27940
217.20.118.15:33333
217.20.118.15:44444
81.169.169.63:27910
69.133.78.21:27910
70.85.80.116:27910
216.127.68.86:27910
12.202.57.134:27910
217.20.118.15:27911
69.133.78.21:27911
66.67.100.34:27910
216.197.169.203:27910
24.169.157.84:27910
66.186.84.12:27910

I wish I could get a list of names with these as well, but I cannot.

DP server hosting for $2-3 a month, clan websites starting from $2 a month, webhosting accounts starting from $5 a month, http://www.coneenterprises.com/

I manage these servers.  I may even be able to work out a good deal for you. ;-)

It stops on its own, and I kinda move the mouse up and down and left and right.

It just happens.  I can't exactly tell when it will happen, but I will be going along, shooting some people, and then all of the sudden I will look up and then look down and then start spinning around like im doin some kinda funky dance.  rofl

Well, after further research, it appears it's a mouse issue and can happen in any game.

Funny, how come this never happens in any other first-person-shooter that I have?  (I have played through the original versions of Half-Life, HL Blue Shift, HL Opposing force, and other old games like that on my Athlon Xp 3200+ machine.  I have the nForce 2 Ultra 400 chipset on my mobo if that makes any difference.)
