Title: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on August 12, 2010, 02:35:42 PM
If you would like to play a round of my mod, leave a message in this topic. If I see it, I'll get a server going  :)

If there's things that I've changed since the last release (very likely), I'll give you an updated wad and host the newest version

If it's a public server, anyone can join, not just CQFF members.

So if you're not a member, and you want to play, feel free to join up too.

If you're hosting, let me know, I can put it on the ticker. :)

School's started for me, but if I'm caught up with my studying, and I'm not in class, I'll host a game if you guys want to play.

Post a message for me, send me a PM, or put something in the shoutbox and I'll get one going.

I'm going to be running a public alpha test soon, just for a little while. Let me know if you're interested.

Ok, I'd like to do a server test of this wad soon. How does this Friday sound to you guys?

Hey ChexCommander, could you put something in the banner about this? I'll post something in the topic about the specific time, probably around 8 PM EST, though.

If all goes well, the wad we played on will be the next release. I probably won't have DUEL03 done by friday, but I might have part of it done.

Awesome! Perhaps you could also add what i've done? (In a seperate wad, off course. I'll provide the download)

Won't be able to join in on Friday evening - I have to march at the FB game.

Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?

Just post the time here, and I'll put it up ASAP.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on October 07, 2010, 02:13:38 PM
I'll host it at 7, and I'll post the wad about a half hour earlier

Is there some way I could have control over the ticker? It'd be handy for telling people when I'm hosting.

Post by: MajorSlime on October 07, 2010, 06:33:40 PM
Geez. A lot of people wish they had that power. Like I want it so I can announce when I come out with new betas! I wonder if we can do some sort of mods (modding) only ticker...

Change of plans.

I'll most likely be able to join your game.

I had my own little quest to play Chex Quest tonight. :P

So first of all, nobody showed up for youth group at church tonight, so I turned on the computer in the sound booth (yay for authorization!) and then remembered "YES! 75's HOSTING TONIGHT! YES!" and after downloading the wad I started playing (on my install on my flash drive).
Fast forward to playing in the Mario Zorchmatch map. I was looking through the options for an option for logging your console/messages, and noticed I was running in software mode instead of OpenGL. And I had the bright idea of changing to OpenGL. But then, apparently that monitor can't handle something about Doom with GL (saying "Out of Range" for the refresh rate and stuff). So I tried switching back to Software Mode, but Skulltag always started up to quickly for me to get the initial options box. So I tried editing the ini file, but the most I ever got was the main changing picture, but it always crashed before the menu appeared. So I eventually managed to get going by using an ini file for another user, and finally got back to playing.

I did actually get it back into Software Mode by memorizing the keystrokes needed (by using a different ini at the time) which happen to be enter, down twice, enter, up 4 times, enter, down 1, right, 2 escapes, then to be easy a console exit command. But, unfortunatly it still complained about the out of range stuff, so I used the other ini...

I'll ask my brother about this later...

Sounds like you did the konami code

too bad you couldn't get it working, I'll host again, though.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: MajorSlime on October 09, 2010, 12:21:14 AM
If you go and run skulltag without doomseeker or anything else, the menu for selecting hardware or software will appear.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: noob1234 on October 09, 2010, 12:20:01 PM
Jeez, i'm sorry guys.
neither IDE nor doomseeker nor the skulltag internal browser were working. At least IDE showed servers, but they were all N/A. Doomseeker and Skulltag didn't show anything.
I think I know the problem; you don't have to help me.
I think it's my mom's darn wireless internet. STUPID VERIZON! the reason i suspect this is because it works at my dad's house (my parents are divorced) and it couldn't login to skype or steam.

Hey, how about we do another match later today, if anyone's interested? (with my maps)

A server is up, it'll be up pretty much all day.

anyone up for a game right now? I can host, and I've had it with homework for today.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: Datra on October 12, 2010, 11:54:00 PM
I'm up for it. :whale

I still have a bit of homework that I have to grind out but I'm in if you haven't already called it a night.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: MajorSlime on October 13, 2010, 12:23:14 AM
ooh! Server!
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?

What!? Where?!
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on October 13, 2010, 12:53:18 AM
ok, for a little bit. I'm getting tired though.

EDIT - on second thought, it's too late. I was thinking about it, and it's almost 12 AM here now, if I get this started now I'm not going to bed at any decent time... sorry.

Some other time I guess.

Post by: noob1234 on October 17, 2010, 02:20:50 AM

How about tonight?
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: MajorSlime on October 29, 2010, 10:22:31 PM
yeah!

i'm gonna install linux, and should be on using it later, so its good for me.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on October 29, 2010, 11:14:49 PM
hmm... ok!

If you're interested in joining, post something in the shoutbox, or meet me in the chat. I'm waiting for players right now. I'll wait 5 minutes and launch the server.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: MajorSlime on November 10, 2010, 02:07:57 AM
That was a fun game! And the amount of players!
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: LAZ Trooper on November 10, 2010, 10:19:59 PM
How many were on?
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on November 10, 2010, 11:11:55 PM
A lot, actually, the server was full with 8 players at one point, and we had five for a while... then everyone left at once again and I took it down after that

There was a lag, and a bunch of people dropped, and they didn't come back, unfortunately.

If, you need help on that, let me know.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: QuadrumpusGuy on November 12, 2010, 11:43:07 PM
If you want, I could boot up a server.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on November 13, 2010, 01:27:12 AM
linux is working great! Now to get skulltag on here.


EDIT - I probably won't have time to play tonight, I'm still trying to update it.

EDIT 2 - I got it working!

So...

server, or no?
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on November 13, 2010, 11:14:02 AM
I got it working, but it was after midnight, so, no.

Maybe today.


EDIT - I did a quick server test and I am able to host servers in skulltag. Doomseeker is a bit buggy, so I might switch to IDE

EDIT2 - IDE doesn't work in linux

EDIT3 - I don't need IDE or Doomseeker to start servers any more, I just learned how to write the configuration myself, and it works great! ;D

Haven't had a server up for quite a while... Are there going to be anymore releases anytime soon?
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on December 28, 2010, 10:56:27 PM
Servers - I don't have skulltag installed on this computer, but I could host fairly easily

Updates - Probably not for a while, my next game is going to be on a true 3d engine, and that's taking up most of my time.
Title: Re: Multiplayer anyone?
Post by: 75 on December 28, 2010, 11:05:46 PM

like now! :D

Server up in about five minutes (however long it takes me to put skulltag on this computer)


EDIT - darn, I can't get it to work, my server won't show up...
