MHMIV the DM server

gopostal · Post by **gopostal** » Fri May 15, 2009 7:50 am

OK guys, opened another server. I had discussed this option last night with Herm and got his OK to use the name.

The server is located here: 66.55.142.221:7777 but for now is vanilla until I can load it up this evening. Basically you guys want DM/Insta/JB? Also does everyone who admins MHMIII also want to admin there?

I'll be happy to add stuff through the weekend and set it up like people want. We can tie the servers together through nexgen and mapvote. Let me know any custom DM stuff you want, but make it in the next day or so because once this server is set up, I'm not going to change it all around any. I just don't have time to do it all.

I'd be very surprised if anyone didn't

Indeed!

I again agree with you Bio....

OK it's set up as CTF just for now. Nexgen is installed but not configured. I'll work on it when I get home from work. By tomorrow there should be a playable Insta/JB server running.

BTW I got the admin imported so if you are admin on III you are admin on IV. Guys I cannot stress enough running a DM server requires a firm hand as an admin. If you see trouble, PLEASE stop it before it gets going.

I'd like them but I'm OK without, I'm hardly going to spend much time on a DM-JB server after all.

OK basic server config is done. It has DM, iDM, and jailbreak. I'll get to the minor tweaking later. If it crashes it defaults to ctf face so just vote back.

I'm not going to add 15 mods or 30 maps so save us all the trouble. I'll toss a couple of maps up but I want you guys to understand this is simply an alternate to MHMIII. I have no plans or desires to "build" a dm server. It's going to stay stock (gamespeed, etc) unless there is an overwhelming majority of MHM'ers that want something adjusted.

If you find a slow file redirected, let me know. I think I got everything, but you can never be sure.

Guys I set the server to run 4 players (bots) to fill out the teams. I set it as close to what the other was on settings as I could remember. If something isn't set right, let me know.

The JB matches are set to 6, and the dm is set to 30. Should that be adjusted?

First, I thought about this new server being a clone of the ex MHM3... but

Now I have a new idea. Let's password MHM4. Put the password here on forums. You don't have to be an MHM'er to play on MHM4. You don't even have to open an account. Just check our forum.

An open Ppl vs PPl server brings so many difficulties and they tend to be competitive forgetting the fun. A passworded MHM4 could be a nice thing. With that we wouldn't have to care about cheating that much and we still could keep our settings (that allows skaarjs, cows, cookies, bears, etc.) that will go away with anticheating protection.

We could even announce the password on MHM3 broadcasted messages, even in MHM1 if Hermskii agrees.

What do you think? A iDM, DM, CTF, iCTF, JB server but passworded. I think it's the best thing we can do.

I agree passworded sounds good

Buddy you've read my mind, I was thinking exactly the same thing, with a locked server we could get rid of most of the cheaters, whiners, lamers, spawnkillers, stalkers, cussers, and so on all at once. I already asked Ice and she agrees with me.

Another option along those same lines is to set the number of VIP slots to 10. That way you have to have at least a VIP membership to join. Then you wouldn't need to fool with passwords and you know every person that plays. Basically that locks out the public slots.

OK I hate to reply to myself but I just took a look at the nexgen on 4. You can change the default player account and disallow automatic play on the server. They could join and spec but only play if an admin upgraded the account.

That's really an interesting alternative gopo, I'm waiting for the others' opinion.

Like reiyel said: iDM, DM, iCTF, CTF, JB sounds perfect.

A passworded server I also would like
