ET: Legacy Development

ehmmm... is possible to tune the bots to be more "stupid", in etlegacy.com

in omni-bot.cfg set:

CurrentDifficulty = 1

This because:
1) it’s true, I’m not a good rifle
2) I want to play some time to check features (before to be killed)

Thx, in case

ET: Legacy 2.71 RC1 & No Quarter 1.2.9 Beta6 Server

We play around 19-22 GMT... You are always welcome to join us!

Hi Radegast, just to let you know that the Team Muppet Clan are running their own ET:Legacy server. DOG and me tested it a few nights ago and it seems pretty stable. Here’s a link to it on Splatterladder:

Why the etlegacy.com server down?

I am working on a control panel for ET:L dedicated servers which would make switching between different versions of binaries on the server and server updating a one mouse click job. I won’t bother starting the server before then. It’s about 50% done, but I am on a week long vacation now, so it will take soms time before the server is up again.

Server etlegacy.com is back in town. hf! Currently Win & Linux only ...

Is there any ET: Legacy 2.71 RC3 Server listed on http://et.trackbase.net/serverlist/?

Do you mean Legacy mod, or ET:Legacy server?

Afaik, there is only two servers running Legacy mod, one being the official test server. I don’t think you can easily see other servers running ET:Legacy with another mod, since ET:Legacy is backward compatible and seen as a 2.60b server.

Hello folks,

I host a personal server at etl.vorotnikov.me:27960. It features daily reset and updates directly from ET:L git repo. My connection is pretty stable so it should be a good meetup for Eastern and Central Europe.

Hi skybon,

So you’re the Russian guy I was wondering who set up that git server.

I tried to connect from my win7 box, but I got a "vm on cg_game failed" error.
Looking at the etl_bin.pk3 package, it seems you don’t provide mod binaries for Windows. Any plan to do that?

Also, the download rate is really slow. I’m not sure what’s happening here.

In any case, welcome to our forums!

Well, I have really no idea how to cross-compile for win32. In fact I cut the corners by running a system-wide installation using your PKGBUILD.

If it is possible to build for OS X and Win on Linux machine, I’d be happy to set it up.

Have a look at the newly uploaded etlegacy-mod-win32-git package, it might be of interest for you

The package compiles, but is completely untested, so feedback welcome!

skyborn the only way to compile files for win or mac under linux is by virtual machine Try VirtualBox

Hu, no. MinGW

Thanks, win32 should be a go right now.

Two bad news:

- I got a "Server disconnected - Unpure client detected.Invalid .pk3 referenced" error. Not sure what’s going on, might be because of mingw.
- Your server download rate is still slow. I mean, ridiculously slow (~5-10 kb/s). It took me nearly 20 min to connect. Check your config here.

Also, the bots count (24) seems too high to provide a good gameplay, imho. You should consider to lower it a bit (12-16).

Try downloading now; bot count lowered.

No, still desperately slow.

Hmm, I thought using curl would solve this issue? Huhu, no. Curl’s implementation seems vanilla.

So yes, you might need to install a http or ftp server and run it alongside it on your etl server. Copying the client *.pk3 in the http/ftp directory (automatically with a script) might be a good workaround here.

Server updated, FTP up and running:
ftp://etl.vorotnikov.me:21

Yes, the download rate issue is now solved! I tried to connect from Linux, and it worked well indeed.

However, when connecting from Windows I still got that "unpure pk3 fils referenced". I tried to play with the mingw .dll on my local machine and it worked without any issues. I believe something gets wrong because of the separate etl_bin_win32.pk3... I’ll investigate this week end and try to fix it.
