*slaps Valve for not letting you add L4D servers to your Steam Favorites list*
-
Ahaha, I was gone to class and still had the old new server on my servers list... it's a 10-player Counter-Strike Source server now.
-
New server = 130 ping =
It got put in the wrong datacenter... Bahamut's having it moved as we speak (which means the IP is changing again...)
New IP will be 8.9.31.206:27015
For reference, it was supposed to be in the Chicago, IL datacenter and ended up in the San Jose, CA datacenter. It's transferring to Chicago now.
-
There was also some unexpected mod upgrades during the switch... hopefully it doesn't cause any issues.
Metamod: Source was updated to 1.7.
Sourcemod was updated to 1.1.
-
I'd be up for it; not sure about everyone else.

There was a boatload of people on after I got home from work but before I finished dinner (19 to be exact).
However, I told someone I was going to get on after eating, and that person must have warned them about how great a spy I am, 'cause when I finished eating, it was down to 4 people!

Dude, I struggle getting 5 gold, I'm not real good at wow yet, other than grinding now
And I would totally use addons, but i have no idea how, like i download them, and then i have no idea how to use them
This particular addon, once you place it in your Addons directory, adds a few new buttons and tabs to the Auction House interface. The Scan button is one such new button.
However, this addon is pretty useless unless you spend time scanning the auction house with it. This takes roughly 20-25 minutes on Illidain.
I usually do it once every day that I'm on. I usually start it, then tab out of WoW to do something else for a bit.
After a few days, you tend to get a good history of prices on the server, then you can use the Appraise tab to determine a good price for items.
Illidain has an expensive economy, which you can use to your advantage: green and blue items, even low level ones, sell for a LOT of money on the auction house. Some common items do too. I was selling stacks of 20x[Wool Cloth] for somewhere around 8g.
-
Did anybody else have trouble getting the 35g for their first mount?
Nope, but then again, I was using the Auctioneer addon to determine the optimum price to sell each green for. I had just over 100g before I hit level 30.
P.S. I haven't been on much recently... I've been dealing with some real life events, plus reinstalling the OS on my computer.
-
I wish I knew why the server would periodically crash. It crashed last night after ctf_turbine when we had a nearly full server (20/24). When it came back, we had 3/24.
Turbine is the last map in the mapcycle. I wonder if that has anything to do with the crashes.
Edit: I'm moving ctf_turbine up two so that pl_goldrush is the last map. We'll see if it still crashes at the end of the mapcycle.

BG&E has a video bug that can be fixed by doing what it says here.
-
What about this Spy Mask, from the "I Fry" achievement... just remove the flames:
or
-
I got:
Beyond Good & Evil
Left 4 Dead
Portal (gift for someone at work)
Spore
Unreal Pack
I was thinking of getting the Prince of Persia Collection, but when I went to check how much it was on Friday, I discovered that "through January 2nd" meant the sale ended at 12:00:01am January 2nd.
-
I added a few maps to the server:
cp_blackmesa
cp_desertfortress
cp_shabbytown_beta2 (couldn't find beta4)
pl_donkeykong_final
pl_cashworks_a5 (and removed a3a)
pl_hoodoo_b5 (and removed b4a)
Also, sorry to everyone if we were playing last night, I went to bed early because I had a headache.
-
Actually yeah, and I don't give a fuck.
And neither does he apparently.
Excellent. Saves me bandwidth.
It would have been nice if he'd actually told me he'd stopped using it as a mirror, so I didn't, say, waste my time putting pl_donkeykong_final on my mirror. I haven't just been hosting the maps, I've been taking the time to recompress them in the one compressed format TF2 understands (bz2) because sites like FPSBanana don't have them in that format.
So... anyone up to playing on OCR's server tonight?
-
Don't like the rules? Don't join.
Wed be better off without you if you do this shit.
I suppose if I don't like the rules I should also stop mirroring maps for him?
Oh, you didn't know I did that, huh?
-
Bioshock has a few problems with the full screen res, but I set it to windowed mode.
And the unreal pack was 20 for all the games, sans 2k3. If they pulled it though that sucks, cause it was a super deal.
I'm not surprised it excluded 2k3... since 2k4 is just an upgraded version of it.
-
Beyond Good and Evil has some graphics issues on my computer. I've read online about how to fix them, but some people say it sends your framerate through the floor.
I didn't get a chance to test it because of TF2 last night. I'll test it tonight after work.
Speaking of which, it's nearly time to leave.
-
It does disappoint me that our TF2 server sits idle while people actually join Atmuh's server.
I hate playing on his server, because I have to constantly stop and Mute people to avoid going insane... and I've seen people (0ptik) kicked because they tried to talk while others were micspamming.
-
I've made yet another change to the alltalk setting. I've removed it from the configuration.
That means it'll stay at whatever the last alltalk setting was at on a map change. This also has the side effect of having alltalk off when the server starts.
Admins can change the alltalk setting using the Server Cvars menu option (4, I think).
Reserved slot holders can start an alltalk vote with votealltalk (I think) or in the menu under Voting Commands.
-
hahah Well, I got more then I should have:
Bejeweled Deluxe
Bioshock
Counter Strike: Source
Half Life: Blue Shift
Half Life: Opposing Force
I already had the last 3 you mentioned. I got the last two for free just by regging HL1 when Steam was brand new.
P.S. "Pump... you up!" was both a reference to Saturday Night Live and to your avatar (from Dig Dug).
P.P.S. If your avatar isn't the little fire breathing guy from Dig Dug... whoops.
-
urgh, Counter Strike Source is finally on sale.
If you get CS Source, I'll have to... pump... you up!
SEE WHAT I DID THAR?!
-
For those of us who don't have it yet, the PC version of L4D is on sale as part of The Steam Holiday Sale for $37.49 through January 2nd.
-
As part of Steam's post-holiday sale, Team Fortress 2 is again $9.99, through January 2nd.
EVERYTHING on the Steam store is on sale by at least 10%. Popular titles like Spore, Left 4 Dead, and the Valve Complete Pack are 25% off.
-
Do you think it should be bumped up?
Yes, to at least 40 seconds. I think it's set to 20 right now.
Left 4 Dead

I was hoping the out-of-game one would, too. I find it convenient to check all my games at once.
