New campaigns made!

Submitted by Somtin on Sun, 12/05/2013 - 18:12.

So, I’ve made a vanilla campaign and also a custom maps campaign.
The vanilla campaign has all 6 standard maps in it, instead of the 3 split into 2 campaigns.
The custom maps campaign has 10 completely different maps in it, which are all in the two map packs given above in the details of the challenge.

Unfortunately, these files must be put in a .pk3 and therefore everyone must have them.
Two options:
1: Robag/Fuzz/whoever downloads my .pk3 file and puts it on the server and turns sv_pure off. Shouldn’t be a problem since the server is password protected anyway.
2: Everyone has to download my .pk3 file. It’s tiny..

In either case, any suggestions on where a good place to upload it is?

Yay!

Submitted by Akenn23 on Sun, 12/05/2013 - 18:29.

Even with the same campaigns shuffling through last time it was really fun, so if it doesn’t work we could just play those again.

Negative Akenn!

Campaign made up! :D
I tested it on my own server and it works good. Dan can connect to it as well without downloading the campaign files.

Good to go! Just need to put it on the ipx server. I’ll sort that out with the BoD.

Awesome I’m in. Can sort out getting the maps onto the server.

Request… 2 custom maps I’ve played before that are awesome and a must for any custom maps night.

Limit

Submitted by Somtin on Sun, 12/05/2013 - 18:42.

There is a limit of 10 custom maps to a campaign and I’ve already made up a mix of maps. I’ll find another lot of custom maps to play for the next time we play customs.. ;) There are some I want to play as well such as helms deep and warbell.. I only wanted to include maps in those two map packs for this one. Maybe I’ll make another map pack for the next one. I’ll include those two maps when I do that. :)

Check your PM’s Fuzz. Or come on IRC or whatever.. :p

river2redux

Submitted by Fuzz on Mon, 13/05/2013 - 08:24.

That’s river2redux. Will need to be in the next custom.maps campaign as there’s already ten in somtins campaign. I’m amazed there’s so many good custom there are.

Heh I remember shad and I showing u guys lol. It’s a good play isn’t it. That’s where the saying u can kill an ipx but you will never outsmart one came from. We were getting smashed on the kd count by such better team, but we owned them with that play finishing in 3 or 4 mins.

cant wait for baserace used to play that alot in the last few months of wolf:ET(i think it was the beta 3a version. theres a 3b now i think)

Baserace

Submitted by Somtin on Mon, 13/05/2013 - 18:09.

Yeah I’m super tempted to make a baserace tourny or something. I think that would be a lot of fun. :) 3v3 or 4v4, four teams, best of 3… Maybe later on once people start getting the hang of the game and after we play a bit more of it.
It’s definitely up there on my favourite list.

Map Packs and Campaigns are live!

Submitted by Somtin on Wed, 15/05/2013 - 11:57.

That’s right folks!
Go down to server.teamipx.net and have a few games on the custom maps. At the moment, the server is only running baserace, but if you would like the custom maps rotation put on, just let me know and I can jump in game and swap that over for ya.

Love to join in… BUT after

Submitted by timboNZ on Sat, 18/05/2013 - 14:45.

Love to join in… BUT after being kicked and didn’t know the password and not getting back on I don’t know how much gaming I’d get in…

Somtin's picture

Sorry

Submitted by Somtin on Sat, 18/05/2013 - 16:07.

Sorry about that Timbo. The server got compromised. :(

We sorted that out though and got some good games in. A shame you couldn’t join us. :(

I’m assuming you can’t see the password at the top of my challenge.. I guess only members can see it. I’ll PM it to you.

Submitted by chipper on Sat, 18/05/2013 - 16:44.

If playing et wasn’t reward enough there will also be a steam issued IPX prize pack up for grabs on the night.

I hope as many show for this event as the last one.

Thanks

Submitted by Fuzz on Sat, 01/06/2013 - 08:51.

I jumped on a minute ago – it took me about 5 minutes to cycle through all the maps and force it to download them all for me. Very painless if you’re early like Ro said.

Sha8doW's picture

ahhh

Submitted by Sha8doW on Sat, 01/06/2013 - 14:48.

good thing I checked… I thought i had ET:W installed and all.
but just went to play and NOPE! so i’ve just done a mad rush DL/install/Patch/pk3Mappack update…

I hope I got it rite!

Thanks for a Awesome night Somtin,

Submitted by Tripsicle98 on Sun, 02/06/2013 - 00:00.

Once again well organised.

Success

Submitted by Somtin on Sun, 02/06/2013 - 00:50.

Perhaps not as great as the last one, but it was funny watching everyone run around in the wrong direction… ;)

Thanks everyone for turning up!

We’ll boil down the custom maps to the more popular/easy ones and include some of the standard maps in the rotation as well. It seems 10 maps worked quite nicely. Wasn’t too much but wasn’t too little.

Until next time!

Don’t forget to sign up for Tremulous next weekend! (:

Fuzz's picture

Agreed

Submitted by Fuzz on Sun, 02/06/2013 - 01:03.

I had a great time. Custom maps are always fun. First run through can be tough. We’ve got through that though. We’ll learn them. Agreed its probably worth picking some of the easier ones out of the list… But I’m always up for a game like tonight where we go through a bunch of maps to decide which ones we like to keep in our long term rotation.

Good work again with the organizing. It was a great turn out!
