Base 12 (beta 4)

October 1942: Axis have just managed to build a working V2 rocket. The prototype is waiting for its transportation in base 12. This is the last chance for Allies to destroy the prototype before it is tranported into safety.

Today TF released beta 4 of his map Base 12. This is an excellent map with real potential to be played in competition. Base 12 has been on the server since beta 1. Each change has provided an improvement in gameplay.


Changes since beta 3:

- Edited side entrance.
- Edited second way to rocket.
- Edited forward bunker.
- Added some voice announcments.
- Added keycard that allies must steal to open second door and secure the forward bunker.
- Its possible to shoot trought the side entrance wire section.

Base 12 as well as Snatch will be played in the next public custom map testing night. More details coming soon.

I dedcided after uploading the FritzBot mod to the main server to do an impromptu run with bot/map defaults. I ran 24 BOTs with 6 people for three cycles of the full fritz campaign with no problems.

I'll sort a decent custom BOT config for the next test (which will be scheduled)

...stay tuned!

Snatch

June 1943: The Axis have a small but vital communication outpost, which controls the Blitzkrieg on all major frontlines. This outpost is equipped with the new radar technology and the Allies are planning an attack (codename: Snatch). The aim is to steal a radar part which in turn will give the Allies crucial electronical know-how.

Will the Axis defend the outpost or will Operation Snatch be a success for the Allied Forces?

SteelRat released the latest version of his map Snatch today. After a break from mapping he is back. His previous maps include X-Dam, v2-Base and X-Posed.

Snatch will be included in the next public custom map testing night. I'm hoping GameArena will consider this map for season 8 (along with Base 12)

It's a few hous away... 'man' v 'machine'

This is Australias biggest Boxing event EVER surpasing Jeff Fenech's world title loss to Azumah Nelson in Melbourne in 1992 where 37000 where in the crowd. This fight is expected to hit 40000 specs!

The winner of tonights fight gets a shot at Mikkel Kessler who is undefeated and the current WBA Super Middleweight champion.

Anthony Mundine fought Mikkel Kessler back in June last year. It went the distance but Kessler was too strong for 'not the best mundine I've seen' Mundine.

Tonights fight is in Sydney Football Stadium. I think Mundine will win this and I'm not the only one.

Whoever wins the upcoming Kessler fight I'd like to see take on the Welshman Joe Calzaghe. Calzaghe, like Kessler, is also undefeated.

edit:

told ya he'd win guys :P

Green was a true gentleman in defeat.

said he had no excuses for the loss

Thursday 18-May-06 from 8:30pm


Maps:

King of the Radio (final 17-April-06 version)
Raiders (final)

download maps - HERE -


King of the Radio

This was played during custom night 4 using the GA season 6 config.
I've made a seperate config for CTF style games which we'll use.
config info - HERE -

I've also made the map time unlimited so the first team to destroy their objective wins. The default time limit is 15 minutes. If no team destroyed a radio then axis would win.


Raiders

This map is based on the movie Raiders of the Lost Ark... you can even die from being crushed by a large stone ball :o

{see below post)

Raiders (final)

Dr. Jones has discovered that Axis scientists dabbling in the occult have found a way
to create soldiers with other-worldy abilities. Harnessing the powers of various
ancient relics, the Axis are soon to create 'super soldats.' Special Allied raiders have
been called upon to root out the Axis secret desert base and recover the lost Ark!

This map is huge!

Custom maps night 8 (18-May-06) will include this map plus another... stay tuned :)

hi renee :P
geeks for the win !!

id software has released a patch for Quake III Arena engine games.

Attention Quake III Arena, Return To Castle Wolfenstein and Wolfenstein: Enemy Territory users:

We have released updates to all three games to fix some security issues discovered following our release of the Quake III Arena source code under GPL.

I've updated the nedETPRO server to v2.60b BUT...
DO NOT USE THE PATCH ON CLIENT INSTALLS!! (for now)

You will not be able to enter the server with this version due to the etpro mod not yet being updated for it.

Until this happens, only use etpro servers you trust. Apparently there's an exploit where servers/clients can access files on the machines they are connected to.

The FritzBot mod test night is soon upon us :)
