Dear all,

I tried to join game in build 14, but everytime I use update pball quits. Can someone help me to solve this prob?

A friend of mine play build 8 and finds servers in his list, I trired the same with build 8 and the list is blank everytime.

No idea if this problems have the same reason ??

PS: Sorry for my english I'm from germany.

jitspoe · « **Reply #22 on:** April 25, 2005, 03:34:50 PM »

ShotMyself: sure.

Semtex: Sounds like there's still something causing it to crash. I thought I had fixed all of those problems. Could you do me a favor and email your serverlist.dat (should be in paintball2\pball). Email it to jitspoe@yahoo.com. After that, delete it and try using "update" again.

Build 8 will not work with the serverlist anymore. The reason it shows up for your friend is because it's cached locally. The update function no longer functions because of some webserver changes beyond my control.

The linux source code worked for me, mostly. In order to get it to work on my Mandrake 10.1 box I had to:

1) install libMesaGLU1-devel-5.0.2-8mdk.rpm (using rpmdrake) to get /usr/X11R6/include/GL/glu.h
2) mkdir debugi386/a3d
3) mkdir releasei386/a3d

and... well... the... sound... is... choppy... to... say... the... least... And the terminal gets kinda funky. I'm so close to kicking my wine habit.

Sound in Linux is rather problematic (not that it's unique to sound, lol). My sound isn't choppy, but it will sometimes cut out and never come back. This happens in other games, not just paintball. I'm hoping the OpenAL support will be better once we get that done. You might try adjusting s_mixahead and see if that helps your sound any.

Wee its not just me.

Before i updated to 14, my serer list went blank the same night of the last pick up. I used the 14 upgrade patch from 13 to fix. Thus the complaints above.

ignorance sucks <<<<

jitspoe · « **Reply #28 on:** May 08, 2005, 02:06:22 PM »

The machine hosting apex went down and took down half the serverlist with it. I'm not sure what the status of that is as I haven't seen FourthX around for a while.

loial21 · « **Reply #29 on:** May 10, 2005, 03:37:19 PM »

what happened to the grah servers...they were listed in 13

gamespy listing = 11 alpha14 listing = 5

jitspoe · « **Reply #30 on:** May 10, 2005, 05:55:23 PM »

The serverlist is automated now. They'll show up when they're updated.

loial21 · « **Reply #31 on:** May 10, 2005, 07:45:58 PM »

ok where are the graf servers?

Eiii · « **Reply #32 on:** May 10, 2005, 08:34:00 PM »

So why do / did you play them?

Speaking of playing or lack of, during one pickup you just gave up because you did not like taco's map. Be a trooper not a pooper and leave the server so someone else can play or face your arse whoopin like a man

Btw thanks for using colored fonts and taunting me about using them and how you did not care if I got kicked playing or if you got kicked by the admin for using them, real mature thanks for showing your true colors God your no better than a cheater or a server admin that does not want to upgrade. I mean this I dont cheat and I dont mind upgrading but i perfer to use q2 and play on graf why should I be punished ?

Jitspoe,
You could have mentioned this earlier when I was asking where all the servers were, yes I might booger about it but I can get over it, however...

I really did appreciate you putting old builds back on the server list on alpha 13. It was the right thing to do . Please dont punish others like myself (non cheating and willing to use alpha) like that. Untill you can get rid of q2 it still is the right thing to do.

So, let me get this strait to play on graf servers (which is where I like to play, no lag low ping etc..) with alpha (which is what you wanted me to do right? I AM TRYING TO ADJUST TO ALPHA) I have to un-install 14 and re-install 13? My queations is if I want to use alpha how can I play on graf servers w/o having to input server information my self? Talk about not user friendly.

Btw if your going to make changes to the game would you mind posting your changes in lamiens terms, not every one here is a hack. and understands jitspoeneese

Thanks for your time friend and your time ei ei o (you nerd)

Craig

**edit
Jitspoe when you said "updated" I assumed you were reffering to the update button in alpha

jitspoe · « **Reply #34 on:** May 11, 2005, 07:04:15 PM »

To play on graffiti just use gamespy, ase, hlsw, or some other server that supports Quake2 and point it to paintball2.exe instead of quake2.exe. Using alpha 13 will not make the graffiti servers show up on the list. As I said, the serverlist is automated now, as in, I don't control it. When a server runs, it adds itself to the list, and gets removed when it shuts down. Graffiti will have to update their servers for this feature. Simple as that.

loial21 · « **Reply #35 on:** May 11, 2005, 07:31:26 PM »

Will this effect my other q2 mods that I play,that is if I want to play q2 WOD, DDAY, GLOOM etc wont the paintball2.exe not play the or bring up other mod's servers?

Will I have to toggle the .exe back and forth to play more than one mod?

Do you see the overcomplexity of what your asking from a idiots point of view?

At some point during 13 graf severs were added back on. What changed err re-changed your mind?

Eiii · « **Reply #36 on:** May 11, 2005, 08:17:51 PM »

MAKE A COPY OF QUAKE2.EXE.
RENAME IT PAINTBALL2.EXE
duh.

,

Uhhhh ....read "I wish" thread.

Jitspoe,

I have phrased this question as best I can twice on two threads. I have yet got a logical explanation as to what happened as a matter of fact now it was completely ignored.

"Graf servers was added (after much debate) on 13 why not 14"?

Thanks for your time bud

jitspoe · « **Reply #38 on:** May 11, 2005, 11:26:22 PM »

And I explained before. The serverlist is automated now. If graffiti would simply update, their servers would send heartbeats to the serverlist and appear on the in-game server browser.

S8NSSON · « **Reply #39 on:** May 12, 2005, 06:49:00 AM »

Here let me try...

THE SERVER LIST IS AUTOMATED NOW.
SERVERS MUST UPDATE TO BUILD14 TO SEND THE HEARTBEAT THAT PUTS THEM ON THE LIST.

I imagine this feature is in response to YOU GUYS complaining about having always update your server list manually. So NOW YOU DON'T. The problem is the server has to UPDATE.

SO UPDATE AND be quiet
whiny dang freaks...STOPPIT
