Re: [hlds] Need more dedicated server for Fistful-of-Frags (FoF)!
Someone on this list said they was able to load Sourcebans with MM:S and SM working using the latest snapshots. I took a chance and installed MM:S and SM on my Windows 2008 based FOF servers. I was never able to get SM to load. MMS did load. Prior to doing this, not a single crash. Now all four serverd have crashed numerous times and wouldn't auto-restart. I'm back to vanilla now and not a crash for the past few hours. Just an FYI to you all.

Actually, yes. I have been messing around with that. None of the objective stuff is there anymore. So, I think I just ripped-out that stuff. Otherwise, I the weapons are the same I though. I am having an issue with a few weapons not showing-up in the stats at the moment. For example the Schofield pistol, I didn't think that was new - but I don't see any stats for that showing.

Re: [hlds] Fistful-of-Frags (FoF), player black-list, etc.
Just clarified with the developer, the new Fistful-of-Frags on Steam does NOT attempt to do any global player black-list of it's own (unlike the old version 3.9 mod for OrangeBox). I *assume* putting the server into VAC secure-mode will enforces blocking VAC-banned players. Seems to me that is more low-level than whatever the game/mod-developers get to control anyway.

Re: [hlds] Fistful-of-Frags (FoF) - SourceMod Issues Resolved
Thanks for this info. I was using the 1.5 Dev branch of SM and the 1.10 Dev branch of MM:S. Switching to the 1.6 and 1.11 respectively solved the problem and now both are loading correctly. On a side note, my HLSW doesn't show SM loaded when using SM 1.6 Dev. I had to check it via console to confirm it was running. Thanks again for the help.

I took a chance and installed MM:S and SM on my Windows 2008 based FOF servers. I was never able to get SM to load. MMS did load. Prior to doing this, not a single crash. Now all four serverd have crashed numerous times and wouldn't auto-restart. I'm back to vanilla now and not a crash for the past few hours. Just an FYI to you all.

Fistful of Frags could use your help. FoF launched (for FREE) on Steam yesterday, and the response has been overwhelming. The down-side to that, is frankly there just are not enough dedicated servers to keep-up with the demand. There are over 200 player-slots of dedicated servers - but that apparently just is not enough! FoF is basically a reboot of the older FoF sourcemod - moved over to Steam. The Steam version of FoF is kind-of stripped-down right now to just death-match and team-based death-match. Even so, it is very fun to play (especially four-team DM). However, being a free game (put-together by unpaid volunteers), the FoF dev team simply can not afford to bring-up enough servers to keep up with demand. I have personally helped-out by hosting 8 servers instances myself (up from my planned 3). Obviously, it runs on SRCDS and uses SteamCMD/SteamPipe for installation/content delivery. So, it essentially installs just like any SRCDS game, and is compatible with SourceMod, etc. Steam store page (where to get client to install): http://store.steampowered.com/app/265630 Steam community hub for FoF (discussion groups, etc.): http://steamcommunity.com/app/265630 Steam official group page (update history, etc.): http://steamcommunity.com/games/fof Any help appreciated! ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
[hlds] Update regarding Fistful-of-Frags (FoF) on Steam, servers, etc.
First of all, just wanted to thank the community of server operators/admins for responding; and bringing-up additional servers for the players trying to get into the game. The player response to the release was overwhelming. Who would have thought that a free Steam game, that is basically a stripped-down reboot of an older OrangeBox mod would be as popular as it was. It is kind of assume that player-interest will fade some over the coming week's - but who really can tell. At any given time, there seem to be between 800 and 1,700 players in-game (according to the Steam community hub page). Just on my own FoF servers alone, I have seen almost 7,000 unique SteamID's connect/play (based-on HLStatsX:CE tracking). Currently, there seem to be plenty of servers on-line for FoF. Although, anybody is willing to bring one up of course - ESPECIALLY if you actually play the game. At this point, what I would like to encourage everyone to take all the FoF-related discussions *OFF* the HLDS and HLDS_Linux distribution lists. I am sure everybody NOT interested in FoF is tired of all the FoF-related chatter. Thanks also to them also for putting-up with the extraneous chatter. I have not seem any negative feedback on that - but let's not outstay our welcome. The official FoF links are: Official Steam Game Group Page (links to everything else): http://steamcommunity.com/games/fof Steam Store Page (where to send people to get the client): http://store.steampowered.com/app/265630 Steam Game Hub/Community Page: http://steamcommunity.com/app/265630 Specifically, the Discussions part of the game-hub: http://steamcommunity.com/app/265630/discussions *** Most importantly ***, the Server Administration discussion area (where we should probably be taking these conversations): http://steamcommunity.com/app/265630/discussions/6/ PS: I am not the developer of FoF or anything remotely like that. Just another server operator who's been at this a while like everybody else here - and just happened to be a fan of the game (old and new). The developer has granted me some access to clean-up the discussions area of the community hub - which has (appropriately?) been like the wild-west - in terms of people going WAYoff-topic, duplicate discussions or just posting in the wrong areas.. ___ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: https://list.valvesoftware.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/hlds
