GRaFFiTi server sv_minclientbuild setting

[PiCaSSo]

Hi all...

I am contemplating changing the sv_minclientbuild setting on the GRaFFiTi servers to Alpha version 10 on all the classic pub and match servers.  Presently it is set on 0 which allows Quake 2 users to play with the old Q2 mod.

I find it strange to find myself asking this as it took I think until build 14 before I finally gave up the Quake 2 version but does anyone still use the Quake 2 version to play this game?

Anyway, I need your thoughts and opinions concerning this proposed change.

Thanks in advance

no, anyone who does use the q2 version would be doing so for cheats sake. set it to 14

I play on my Mac using Q2 some times, but eh, its ugly as hell, you can do away with it.
Yeah, b14 should be the current minimum.

I liked q2 better and only for the balls, do I cheat? With that said, I kindly upgraded a while back. 14 should please all players. Except Kaltorak who uses build 666. Kalhaxosaurus you rock bud. Thanks for all the cmds to make build 16 comfortable.

build 666 is easy to do, just edit source then compile.

Anyways, modified balls? Yes thats a cheat.

Just as much as modded skins, or spiked models.

Please look at the vote for build 17 for larger balls. Bob (may he live forever) and a lot of q2 vets (including myself) made fuss about the balls being changed after q2. Here is one quick example....

 Nothing at all to do with modified balls in build 16. But thanks for bringing that up and I agree modified componets that give you a sensory advantage are cheats.


The level that people sink, to be cool in this game is....off topic but is understood as pathetic.

Yes changing your build is easy, thank you. Even more important was my shout out to Kal.


*on topic edit.
Does any disagree with the build I suggested as a Min?

14 is sounding promising... Any Takers???

[Bix]

14 is what ch1ll uses.

[SkateR]

noone should be using less than 14..

[PiCaSSo]

Thanks for the input all...  I've put all the server's settings on 14...
