When does Sir Mandrake play?

Post by Hermskii » Fri Mar 18, 2011 1:48 am

I used to see Sir Mandrake play on his server. I don't anymore or maybe I never did. Do you play on your server Sir?
~Peace~

Due to recent server events (and RL) in the past 2 weeks I haven't played solidly - just been in and back out trying different things or to initiate a server map travel. Its usually LATE at night when server population is low that I'll jump in .... I hate to spontaneously restart the server to a map when players are playing.. it freaks em out :shock: lol

With the server in a stable state, ill be playing more as I add more and more maps.

Since I'm the subject of discussion on this thread, i have a question... Whats the best ServerAds mod/mutator out there to use? I have one now but it puts the adds along with the server spam/fluff and its very easy to miss. I would love to have it show as a "chat" say: and in a different color if possible... any suggestions?

Yes, there is another one that is much better than Server Adds but I never switched to it and can't recall the name. Eneter HOOK: he will pop in on here soon and answer that question for you. If he takes to long, I will research it and find the answer. I know the answer is here too already now that I think of it. Another Admin used it and told me about it here. You mights search "add" or "Server Adds" or "Toys" since server adds is part of some other mod I have also forgotten the name of.

Thanks Herm! I will do just that. I did a quick Google earlier and was directed to UNreal Admins, but their forum is having an issue at the moment.

Cool. I did do the server adds search here already and found about 8-12 pages of stuff. I noticed that NexGen offers some feature to do what you want too. It wasn't what I was looking for but it make work for you.

I currently use "ServerAdds v1.04" which I like and it works well.
You can have it in the Chat area, or mid-screen - or Both places.

There is another "version" of the above (that I have) - or rather a new one Based on the above code directly.
It is called: "ServerScroll_v1.1"

I have Both of these, but I never installed ServerScroll_v1.1 - Yet anyway.
More complicated, but does some cool stuff. :wink:
I attached Both!

Thanks Hook - I may have an older version of server ads. I discovered that it like to mess with MH spawn timings and causes the Deemers and health to spawn too quickly. So Im trying alternatives. Especially one that allows me to place the ad wherever I want.

I may give server scroll a look and see what its like.

Thanks again!

Yes actually. I got Server Scroll working and setting it up takes some editing of the .ini files to port over your messages, (stuff any server admin should be able to do easily) and the included documentation wasn't written very clearly.

However, when it started, it went into demo mode and into a runaway state, spamming lots of messages. LOL. Try not to install and test it when players are on if you can. It was late so I had to disable it with the intentions of getting back to it the next day but some stuff came up and I haven't had the opportunity to get back to it and tweak it.

I never got your email for the chat logger. I'll send it when I get an email. It is real easy and works well if I recall.
