Revival and Changes

[BlueHat]

I'm currently dedicating a bit of time to starting up the server again. I'll be spending the next two weeks putting effort into the following areas:

Map Rotations - done
Custom Map Installs - done (extra progress may be made)
Plugins - done
Proper Branding
Admin stuff (rules, forums etc)
Creating a solid moderator team


Blue's To-Do List:

Update server - done
Update / install FragRadio - done
Install Hide & Seek Custom Map - done
Create map rotation - done
Review basic configurations
Sort moderator / staffing powers
Assemble staffing team
Sort staffing powers and accounts
Draft + Finalise list of server rules
Set up server branding
Misc Stuff.

Map Rotation:

pl_badwater
cp_badlands
ctf_turbine
cp_coldfront
cp_fastlane
pl_goldrush
pl_hoodoo_final
cp_freight_finall
cp_process_final
koth_sawmill
cp_well
cp_degrootkeep
pl_barnblitz
koth_king


I'm thinking PropHunt (hide and seek) will become a special map that staff will change to, when it is requested.

Frag Radio has been re-installed with the latest and most up-to-date version.

It's taken a number of hours but PropHunt is now installed on the server.

It comes with a bunch of maps that are compatible with it, I've set some up on the map rotation, just kicking the server up again to check nothing broke. We will test everything when I'm finished next week.

[BlueHat]

Moderators & Admins assigned their account permissions. Yet to be tested.

PropHunt fully installed. Yet to be tested.

Full server testing shall take place over the next few days. Ensure your TF2 clients are up to date!

Sounds so good, can't wait...

I'd like to post on the moderators thread thing but it says its locked so where can I put my application?

[lordgandalf]

mr bluehat if you copy youre addons and cfg and maps folders to a safe place and reinstall tf2 the server would be fine when you copy all that stuff back into the updated server folder

[BlueHat]

That's what I am doing mr lord gandalf! It's just taking a while, those files are pretty large now sadly.

Jimred I've closed the application thread as we no longer need any more.

Working on the server now to get it up and running today hopefully.

[lordgandalf]

ooh that would be nice xD

[jimred9]

Jimred I've closed the application thread as we no longer need any more.

Ok, thanks anyway :)

[BlueHat]

Getting ready to re-install the server to hopefully fix an updating problem.

Then i'll begin the re-install of all custom assets like cfg files, addons and new maps.

THEN WE'LL BE READY TO ROLL!

[lordgandalf]

Let me know when where ready to roll out i will gather some peepz and where going to test the server hardcore :p
Its a shame that the TF2 server still isnt uptodate btw still getting the error for some odd reason :S

We've not had time to dedicate to trying to get the server running yet. A number of problems and I'm going to have to re-install which will take a good few hours. I'm moving house and starting term time again so it's going to be a while.

I would apply without TF2 in your application, alternatively Gandalf can accept you if he would like :)
