A few suggestions for OU serpentine MM server
I've been playing there regular as of late.I see a couple people come and go but Toto and I seem to be the regulars.
Could you please lower the frag limit from 10000 to about 5000?
10000 is just too much to keep players on the server.
Also,is there a way to redo the maplist?I talked to Pitbull yesterday about missing maps and I said I would try to keep a list but there are just too many missing on the 3 page list.
One last thing.I know I made an error thread in general but this seems like a better thread to place it.
There have been 10 server crashes since server went up,two of which happened today with Toto and myself in the server.
I know from past experience with the euro serp MM server that this didn't happen too often.
Is there a problem with 227 or is it something else causing all the crashes?
I know you're on top of it Smirftsch but since I'm in there quite often I figure I'd keep you up to date.

Re: A few suggestions for OU serpentine MM server
the config is pretty much the same like it was on the euro server. Regarding the logs it crashed only 3 times for different reasons. Its no 227 specific problem, Euro was running the same.
The maplist needs to be updated, thats true. However, map suggestions are very welcome.
Btw, the server is voteable to be MM or not. Originally its only "Serpentine", not necessarily MM
Toto can adjust the fraglimit, he is having ingame admin powers- I never had the impression of 10000 is to much- but I'll leave this up to the players, so if more people share this opinion no problem to change it

Re: A few suggestions for OU serpentine MM server
Hmm,only 3 in the logs?I been counting man,10 so far.
I'll try and keep up with which maps aren't working.
Didn't realize we could switch gametypes.
Just need a few more people to get a good game going then. 8-)

Re: A few suggestions for OU serpentine MM server
Ok,tried to switch MM to DM via callvote.
That doesn't work.
Toto was kind enough to change gametype via admin and we had a good round.
Maps missing or not working so far are as follows:
dmsurfaceserpentine
dmstreetfighter
dmforge
dmburak
dmmeldrak
dmaggressive_tendencies
dmteetok
dmparanoid2
I'll let you know what others soon. 8-)

Re: A few suggestions for OU serpentine MM server
Tried dmsurfaceserpentine again today,no load.
It's missing the snow package. The download link for that map does not contain the snow package.
edit: I found the missing file (snow.utx) and installed it. Map should work now.

Re: A few suggestions for OU serpentine MM server
For those maps there is a upak file that works for gold users and plain unreal users. The only maps that will work though are the Death Match maps. The COOP maps will not work with that upak file. I added the usable upak file to that server for now. Once upak for 227 is complete that will need replaced. The map should load fine now Turd. We have several servers running on one install of unreal. Each server has it's own system folder but all the servers share the map, texture, music and sound folders. I have the upak maps on the TAM server so thats why they are showing up in the Serp also. The upak file was missing from the Serp system folder which is why it would not load. Everything should be square now though.Warning: Failed to load 'UPak': Can't find file for package 'UPak'
