Something I find fun is 1 hit kill rabbit mode mortar bike only.

Put that in the list.

Race, Loot, the stuff that doesn't get played enough but is still utterly awesome. Maybe some (ST)CTF too

RACE doesnt even work though. :P

I thought there was something up with it, there's something else to fix.

Title: Re: Tournament?
Post by: cheesepuffly on April 28, 2009, 06:30:13 PM

Just you guys wait till the team and I come out with Deathmatch Enhanced! :evil:

DME is a little idea we have been kicking around, if you look around the BZComplex wiki you may be able to find the hidden info. :P

Too far away for a soon tournament, but in the future...

We should get lists of ppl together who can play.

I am willing.

Once we get a list I can randomly generate a ladder, even for game types with teams.
If people want specific teams for team games to win as teams, should indicate that. I personally choose VSMIT and Steeveeo for games I am teamed in. I wonder if Russian Roulette still plays (and well). I should get a 4th team member... Jamsh? :-P

I'm a rubbish stratter and gamer in most forms, so I'm going to play through the campaign and IA levels again, and after that... anybody wanna help me learn? :P

We should wait until summer... remember how Overmind said he was going to look into this MP ranking system?

I was trying but my way required a custom DLL, his way might be able to hook.

Either way, I suggest we just handle the record keeping ourselves.

Passwords :P
Title: Re: Tournament?
Post by: AHadley on May 01, 2009, 12:42:30 AM
That'd be easy enough, and maybe we can use a similar ranking system to here, but mabe using kills rather than posts?
Title: Re: Tournament?
Post by: VSMIT on May 01, 2009, 01:18:10 AM
Only on DM tournaments.
Title: Re: Tournament?
Post by: cheesepuffly on May 01, 2009, 07:29:38 AM
-.-

Fine its official then.

But tell me, are you guys signing up for all of them?

Or do you think i should take some off? (those are just ideas ya know)

And we cant use kills in strategy that would get crapped up because for the most part, in most cases the commander would get the most kills (because of defenses n shiz)

But ok.


Passwords it will be, simple ones but effective.

We will keep track of wins and such ourselves here.

Sure, I'm in.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Nielk1 on May 01, 2009, 09:35:04 AM
I'm in.

4th man for team games, maybe Warfreak?

I have finals next week and then my time is unknown, so... When is this starting?

I take it we first need the list of everyone...
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: AHadley on May 01, 2009, 09:57:59 AM
I'm in, but I'm so crap you might as well put me on the best team to make things a bit fairer :lol:
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: TheJamsh on May 01, 2009, 11:00:07 AM
we should wait until Nielk1 makes his new MP mode... which i will let him unveil because it sounds INSANE! and perfect for a final...
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Nielk1 on May 01, 2009, 02:10:41 PM
Its nothing secret, its just coming along nicer than the King and Queen was. KnQ is still confusing the hell out of me.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: cheesepuffly on May 01, 2009, 04:13:58 PM
I just plan on doing regular.

So ok. Gonna need more entrants than that.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Ac/dc on May 03, 2009, 03:19:20 AM

Is someone else setting this up?

If not, this summer sounds pretty good. Sometime in July.

@Ac/dc really not too much has changed assuming you using the stock variant.

Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: TheJamsh on May 06, 2009, 01:04:33 AM
Alternatively, you could use the 1.2 recycler variant that commando made.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: cheesepuffly on May 06, 2009, 03:30:34 PM
Well, only if everyone is a 1.2 player.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: TheJamsh on May 07, 2009, 12:28:07 PM
huh?
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: cheesepuffly on May 07, 2009, 02:50:05 PM
Why do we have to use the 1.2 variant? Unless everyone is a 1.2 player?

What is the difference anyway?

Too, bad...my dad don't want me to get rid of FE so i can't get TA5
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: bigbadbogie on May 07, 2009, 04:52:01 PM
You don't have to get rid of anything.. just make another bz2 install folder and patch that one to TA5.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Clavin12 on May 07, 2009, 05:27:10 PM
What about mod manager?
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: bigbadbogie on May 07, 2009, 05:29:26 PM
What about it?
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Nielk1 on May 07, 2009, 05:34:27 PM
Seeing as it is designed to handle 10+ BZ2 dirs at once.

And TA5 mods don't even need it.

Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Nielk1 on May 07, 2009, 05:36:12 PM
Nor do PB4a mods. It is called the /config flag.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: bigbadbogie on May 07, 2009, 05:58:32 PM
I still prefer to use it.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Nielk1 on May 07, 2009, 06:00:24 PM
I don't. All I ever did with it was rename bzone.cfg and my alternate cfg.

All mods should be made so all they need to work is the CFG used. If a mod is not made that way with TA5, then the mod maker is lazy and/or ignorant.
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: bigbadbogie on May 07, 2009, 06:01:46 PM
Or prefers MM5.  :-P
Title: Re: Tournament!
Post by: Nielk1 on May 07, 2009, 06:06:13 PM
Even if you use MM5 it should only be to rename the stock bzone.cfg to bzone.bak and the new one like qfbzone.cfg to bzone.cfg

Anything else is lazy and pitiful and not worth release as a mod.

Ok, N1.  Tell us all what you really mean. :roll:

I'm fairly sure it worked in PB3 too. I remember setting FS up like this.
