PS2 mod finding odyssey

I would say that i'm curious about going back to jaymod, at the same time i think we need an etpro server. The main point is having an active server owner, wich some time ago neme was :wink:

Give jaymod a trial of, let's say, a month; if it is a fail get back on etpro (with slac)

@smad I believe PS7 is ETpro? I know it's most of the time used for tj, but if 1 person a day spends 1 hour Trickjumping is it really worth it? Trickjumping isnt a big part of ET and therefore keeping a server fully dedicated to TJ seems a bit useless to me.
Make it a normal ETpro server with normal settings, for my part add slac on it (dno exactly what it does

) make it the way you want it to be bbut dont waste it on an empty TJ server.

1 last note. If you want PS2 ETpro... make PS7 Jaymod -_-

NON will play on et pro server without slac ....

SLAC is a 3rd party anticheat for W:ET, but will soon be compatible with some other multiplayer games. It is currently compatible ONLY with ET 2.60b and ETPro 3.2.6 and is primarily an anticheat for clan matches and public ETPro servers.

SLAC is not compatible with the official anticheat software used, Punkbuster, because it is very likely that it will cause various cheating-related kicks. Because of this, SLAC is built to block PB from loading while you're using SLAC. The reason this happens is that in order to gain more control of the game, SLAC uses some techniques sometimes used for cheat development (but itself is not a cheat) and thus triggers kicks by Punkbuster. Although designed to block PB from loading, if you somehow manage to either enable PB ingame or join a PB enabled server while using SLAC, please leave the server as quickly as you can because you may get kicked, and report it as soon as you can to the developer.

SLAC runs only when you want to. In addition to that, you must start ET via SLAC in order for SLAC to run for that instance of ET.

You can use SLAC on any ET 2.60b/ETPro 3.2.6 server where PB is disabled.

I really couldnt care much less since that was completely unimportant in my post

i knew it was something like that, but i dont know the program itself i ment.

But thanks for trying to help me

Lands, Neme, Icy - you could reply once in a while

what's up with SLAC? People have been requesting it for months (together with etpro), but still i see PB running..

And imo Jaymod would do exactly the same as NQ1.2.3 did - both similar funmods that attract almost the same types of players - proven as not working.

ye well, as i said i don't rly have time to set anything, but im for slac as well, at least if the mod will be etpro it should have slac, else it's nonsense for that mod nowadays.

by **landser** » Sat May 14, 2011 10:33

busy atm, hold on another week, then there will be etpro with slac

by **Zielobjekt** » Sat May 14, 2011 11:35

that sounds realy good.
think 1 week is makeable to wait for the enthusiastic waiting players.
but there are also other things to do.

maps out:
et_ice
et_beach
bremen_b2

maps in:
bremen_b3
karsiah
erdenberg

wrong maptimes (pls set to 15min):
braundorf
radar

when all is done people can start to promote the server!
maybe also a promotion at forum frontpage and maybe at wolffiles would be cool.

Changing PS#7 into ETpro (with slac) is not a good idea:
1. PS#7 has no core of regulars like PS#2 does, it will work confusing to put ETPro on there
2. PS#7 is not empty, it is still used sometimes to TJ, besides that a nearly empty server, from wich we don't have another one with the same mod, is in my opinion no waste. Just not crowded.
3. PS#2 Regulars will not appreciate Jaymod. Mostly regulars vote for ETPro and I guess others vote mainly JayMod.
4. I agree with deep about that the regular Jaymod players is kinda equal to the NQ 1.2.3 player. With ETpro you reach an entirely other public, that in my opinion should belong to the community and it's history( Think about PSC). See the points above why PS#2 is the suitable server for ETPro.

the more it's similar with official config that better it is.

by **Smadje** » Tue May 24, 2011 17:21

Am I right the changes are still not done? Is Slac already working?

Just curious, since I really think an good ETPro is an great addition to our community

by **icefrost** » Thu May 26, 2011 22:39

PS is running now with Slac, thanks to warren

etadminmod won't work atm, so it's basically managed by the serverowners / high admins over referee password, which i can share to some few people, if necessary. but cheaters won't appear anyway or will be busted pretty fast, thanks to slac.

announcement on the frontpage will follow probably on the weekend also by warren

please report any bugs, also like maptimes, spawntimes, etc. and it will be fixed as soon as possible (im still kinda busy but trying to do it asap if something is wrong setted).

thx & greetz

by **Ajit** » Fri May 27, 2011 14:24

beach, adler, frostbite - wrong maptime, should be 10 min
braundorf_b4, delivery, radar, - wrong maptime, should be 12

bremen_b2 -> maybe bremen_b3 ? maptime - 15 min

I dont remember about supply anymore, I guess it was correct (15 min)

by **icefrost** » Fri May 27, 2011 17:23

all fixed, thx for the support.

also replaced bremen_b2 with bremen_b3 and removed et_beach completly.

gonna lock this topic, since the mod is decided.

also check the PS2 Announcement Topic for further questions, use the usually forum topics please.

ty!
