chivesontheweb Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 Kay, I did record some OCR stuff today that will probably end up going Youtube.

Rambo Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Can we please look into the plugin that displays the current tally for individual maps during a map vote? Tonight this happened: [sM] Map voting has finished. The next map will be ctf_bball2. (Received 2713523251533f 22 votes) And the server went from a population of 22, to a population of 3.

(Received 2713523251533f 22 votes) And the server went from a population of 22, to a population of 3. it went down to 3 because the map apparently wasnt on powerlords mirror so no one could download it the plugin doesnt work fyi it just shows who voted for what sm doesnt have the clean layout for rtv like beatlesmod did when we used that back in the day and it never will Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miyako Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I don't know why bball is even on the server, anything more than 4v4 on that map is just bad. It's designed for practicing airshots with soldiers/pipes. I tried to warn but whatever they voted for it anyway. I don't see why that was nominated in the first place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why that was nominated in the first place because i wanna see a hilarious 12v12 game of bball obviously! but really its much more for practicing rocket jumps than practicing airshots cp_turris is more for that (i LOVE cp_turris) if anyone ever wants to play a 1v1 (or possibly 2v2) game of bball, a 1v1 game of turris, or a runthough on a jump map lemme know ill use my server for things like that im up for turris or bball matches pretty much anytime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atmuh Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 suggestion an alltalk vote during pregame mayhem of each map its not really a big deal since youre killing each other anyways and itd be nice to have alltalk off every once in a while if people want it off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trianine Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 an alltalk vote during pregame mayhem of each mapf And in the rare moments where Atmuh makes sense... It would be nice to have an alltalk vote somewhere. Sometimes it's nice to have a strategic game without opponents listening in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 suggestionan alltalk vote during pregame mayhem of each map its not really a big deal since youre killing each other anyways and itd be nice to have alltalk off every once in a while if people want it off Two problems with this that I can think of (well, 3 actually): 1. Sourcemod (rightfully) won't let you do votes during Waiting For Players, which is when Pregame Mayhem happens. 2. I'm unaware of a mod to force a vote once a map, which means someone would have to manually start one during the first Setup period/Round on a map. 3. Larger maps take exponentially longer to load on some computers than others. It's not uncommon to have people still joining during the Setup round. I thought I had four reasons, but I must have had two that overlapped or forgot what the last one was while typing this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chivesontheweb Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 I was playing on the server today and I ran into a number of problems. First and foremost, weird lag that made gameplay really jumpy. My ping was normal; the same I always play at without problems. Secondly, a weird bug regarding weapon switching. Sometimes when switching weapons, usually between flamethrower and shotgun, shotgun and flamethrower, the weapon I wanted to switch to is taken out for a brief second then it immediately reverts back to the previous weapon. This, combined with the jumpiness, made playing so difficult that I just quit. It's not me because I tried a few other servers and I don't have either problem. Did something about the server get changed recently? Is anyone else experiencing these problems? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's usually a high packet loss between your ISP and the server's ISP. Shortly after you left, nearly everyone got disconnected from the server as well.

ParanoidDrone Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 If we're still looking for opinions, I'd be fine for alltalk votes. There are times when I want to do something strategic, and alltalk sort of ruins that as far as communication goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Powerlord Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Just in case we do have the Alltalk decision go through, I've changed the ads file around so that the Alltalk status appears every 6 minutes or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chivesontheweb Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Since when did TF2 on OCR become so serious that we'd consider having a poll at the beginning of every single game to see if Alltalk would be on? I thought that was one of the features of the OCR group; it's, and I'm quoting players here, "notoriously goofy". Alltalk is one of the things that gives OCR that distinct no-seriousness aura. This isn't to say I'm against having normal team talk sometimes. I like to play a serious game as much as anybody else (did I mention I played as a ringer for a Scout in a scrimmage the other night? ). However, having to vote at the beginning of every match seems like a bit much and in the long run could be overkill. Why not have a way people could bring up a Team Talk vote, much like other commands on servers? In essence this is a good idea. I'd just like to see it implemented in a more pleasing and convenient way. If, at a specific point and time, a group of people want to start playing seriously without the constraints of alltalk there should be a vote on it. If nobody has come up and said they specifically want the vote I don't want to be bothered with it on my screen. Maybe we should also have votes on 100%-crits, fast-respawn and melee-only at the beginning of every match, just in case people want it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Random Tiger Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 Maybe rather than have a vote at the beginning of every match, we should just set aside a day or two for more serious games Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

atmuh Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 This. I don't want to have to hear the other team all the god damn time. thats why the people on the server should vote for it map by map instead of there being a whole day devoted to it itd be dumb to force alltalk off just because its alltalk off day if the people on the server want it on In essence this is a good idea. I'd just like to see it implemented in a more pleasing and convenient way.
