New Swedish Server

here's the newest atempt from clan VfN to wreck havoc in the Aq2 community.

Vikings from north - Ninjafight in the night is now online for testing :) (extra points for the name?)

the rules are simple, Nightfighting, 2 items(PLEASE make it possible to select 2 items from the beginning in the next TNG version, please ^^), 3 teams and not the most ordinary maps.

The idea is to create a server that promotes alternativ gameplay without banning lots of stuff, If you want to run around with m4/kevlar bursting away in the night it's totally okey, but watch out for the snipers with silencer out there ;)

current map rotation is:
storm
leaf
wizs
ff
time
Bwcity
revolution
murder2
simplicity
rt
bloodspa
ferron
tokyo
icity
time
end
Assassin2

all maps can be found at http://aq2mw.wh00s.net/

Remeber that it's still a bit fucked up since I'm a real noob, and that's hosted from Linköping/Sweden so if you don't get great ping from south africa I'm sorry but there isn't mutch I can do about it :) just play at it if you enjoy it and we might consider moving it to a better host.

ohh and btw you can find it at 85.8.12.182:27910

now it's up to you to add comments, suggestions, random porn of your gfs and above all; give it a try :)

Enjoy

Updates
* removed teamdepo from maprotation since it seems to be totally black for everyone exept me ;)

* max gl_mod was changed to 4 instead of 3.

* added rottentown to rotation.

* changed the server client to R1Q2, that should stop all thoose pesky crashes we had then and then.

juan entered the game
This server does not allow using that value for gl_dynamic, set it to '1'
juan was using an illegal setting
juan was kicked
You were kicked from the game

aprq2 says: //Dynamic lights, 0 disable, 1 originals, 2 enchanced.

Its a settings from aprq2, why would you disable it?

Nice idea btw, some cool maps in the rotation and its different for a change. But if its darkmatch.. i expect rounds to take quite long, but then again i dont get why you dont have no roundtimelimit?

And the server is using an old protocol, 34.. where 35 is common nowadays.

ping 50.. same as angra was, bit lower than soze.. but with old protocol its still abit laggy to me :)

Good job!

//Dynamic lights
haha I don't think it's a question of why I would disable it as mutch as why I haven't enabled it ;)
so what's the setting?

//roundtime
We don't have any roundtime limit, maptimelimit is the only timelimit right now, so If you want you couple play a single 15min long round..
this was done with purpouse, I don't mind the rounds being long, half the fun when we tested the server was to sneak around in the night with stealth slippers, and after a couple of minutes be able to slith the troath of one of your opponents. that's a hard thing to do if you know you only have 2/3 minutes.

//protocol 35
Okey then I would like to know how i get my hands on prot 35 -noob- :)

tnx for the help and the comments :)

If it's darkmatch, then you need the setting off for it to work. It's not just an APR setting. I think it's a Quake 2 setting, and you've always needed it disabled to play darkmatch as far as I know.

Use the server .exe from here: http://www.r1ch.net/stuff/r1q2/
Then you have protocol 35

I understand your points, but when I started playing, suspect it was the same for all of you, public was the important thing, and there is quite alot of cw servers already. But I'm getting a new comp I'm gonna use as a server in a couple of weeks. Thinking about hosting a cw server or two on that one if the line holds for it. An Aq2 Arena server would be nice to! Any one that rembers Msdosmats Aq2 arena server? ^^ Good times, Good times.

I dont think ppl like datk match so much. I bet CTF server would be more popelar, but still not as popular as catch-gamer or .fi public servers.

Well to be honest I host it for me and my buds to play at, it's not like i really need the traffic ;) if other people enjoy it as a break from normal tp it's great but I won't loose any sleep over it :)

i might consider a ctf server when there are a couple of maps for it and when the mod is done :) so nagg at arild untill they finnish it :D
