Silent Mod ver 0.2.0 for W:ET

[daredevil]

We have released new mod for our ET gaming community:

silEnT Mod. Details can be found here:

http://mygamingtalk.com/forums/topic...t-release-020/

Among many changes you can find:

new xp and users database
new knife throwing
modified and extended shrubbot
more unlagging
more code stabilizing - removed many hidden bugs - no more annoying crashes
memory usage optimization (mainly server side)
less net spam - mainly due to new sound architecture
mac support - finally
more, more, more - see the complete change log below:

Below is our latest change log from version 0.1.4:

Added: New sound for thrown knife.
Added: g_dbUserMaxAge server cvar. If this cvar is set, users that are older then then this value are automatically removed from the user database. Default value is 0 which also disables the automated functionality.
Added: !givexp command. With this command admin can add to an online or an offline player a specific amount of XP to a specific skill.
Added: !userdelete command. With this command any users except bots can be removed from the database.
Added: !userban command. A handy online command for banning offline players.
Added: !userlist command. With this command admin can view all the players that are stored in the database.
Added: !useredit command. This command can be used to edit any player that has visited the server.
Added: User database. This holds information of all the users that have visited the server (during the lifetime of the database).
Added: Quick chat box can be used to give commands.
Added: New shrubbot flag '?' that will allow speccing admins to see private messages when they are in spec.
Changed: g_knifeDamage is now g_knifeThrowDamage. Also, the actual damage is no longer randmon.
Changed: !listplayers is now plain !list.
Changed: ETPub !userinfo renamed to !finger. In future a new !userinfo command will give different information.
Reworked: !stats command now shows total and session specific kills and deaths made by Thompson, MP40 and PPSh weapons.
Reworked: Private message sound is now built in and not configurable. sound file can be overridden though.
Reworked: If poison sound is enabled, the poison sound is played only to the player who has been poisoned.
Reworked: !time command shows the clients local time.
Reworked: To throw knife +attack2 must be used as the command (this is automatically rebound at first use of altfire, so no additional work is needed on the user side)
Reworked: Knives throwing. Now knives are held while they charge power.
Reworked: Knifes rotate when thrown.
Reworked: Knife icon enlarges when +attack2 button is pressed and held (e.g. nade icon pulsates)
Removed: Without the need to support several client versions, the server will now send all obituaries as events.
This change removes all excess flags from g_obituary. From now on, the server will send obituary events to clients with any nonzero value in g_obituary cvar and will not send events if it is set to 0.
Removed: Party panzers removed.
Removed: g_XPSaveFile. This is now controlled with new cvar g_dbDirectory.
Removed: g_shrubbot. This is now controlled with new cvar g_dbDirectory.
Fixed: Memory leaking in the ETPub settings.cfg handling.
Fixed: During the intermission, the full width of the chatbox is now used.
Fixed: During the gameplay, the chat no longer overlaps with the gun icon.
Fixed: Player can't throw his/hers last knife.
Added: vote blocking
Enhancement: lot of rewriting to the data sent from server to the client.
Reworked:!freeze command now needs parameter to avoid freezing all player.
Added: Knife Model
Security: Team change spam to stop server crash

We have started working on our new up coming versions! If any one here thinks he is good in making new models, weapons, etc. feel free to PM me.

We are looking for new model makers, so we concentrate more on coding and our upcoming features. If you think you have power to help our W:ET community, feel free to contact us!

Hmm, I didn't know =F|A= is working on their own mod? Good job guys anyway. I hope the mod will be more popular in the future (when some bugs will be fixed).

Test server you can find here:

Clearing couple of things.

* The mod is not F|A project. We are just people who grouped together to make a mod.

* The Himalia server is not a test server. It is a real server with small dedicated community. http://himalia.game-server.cc/index.php

It just happens that since it is my server it is the first one updated and sometimes of course has test versions too. Your are all very welcome there

[Adrian]

Hey gaoesa you got a clan registered? here if not register one and i will add the server to your clan page.

[gaoesa]

We aren't really a clan. We were just few people who wanted to have fun playing ET and so we started a server for it

We ourselves call it the Himalia community.

If it is possible to register without being a clan then we will be glad to do that. It is also ok if it isn't. Thanks for all the help.

What gaoesa, said is true. We have added totally new forums, to support modding community. If any coder, map maker, moders, etc. need space on our forums, tracker, etc. feel free to contact us and we will support them.

Our main goal is to provide something new to our W:ET community and also support our fellow map makers, moders, etc if they are not able to host there forums and also provide them public tracker, so they can keep track of there bugs reported easily.

We will also soon add review section, so admins can review there host, because most of the GSP's delete the bad reviews on there forums.

If you find any bug, feel free to report it on our tracker, so we will be able to fix it asap.
