[hlds] Updates/Releases today - Killing Floor Update, Defense Alliance 2 for KF mod release, Mare Nostrum RO Mod update

2009-12-11 Thread John Gibson
I wanted to give all the server admins a heads up that there are several big
update/releases coming out today for Tripwire's games. Here is what we have
coming:

 

Killing Floor

 

Defence Alliance 2 mod release - DA2 is the first total conversion mod to be
released for Killing Floor. This futuristic team based multiplayer mod has
been described as a combination of Halo/COD/TF2. Since the mod is going to
be released through Steam, the server install can be acquired through HLDS
like any other Steam dedicated server. The game name for HLDS is
defencealliance2. 

Required Killing Floor Update - a required Killing Floor update will be
released today. This update will add several of the top winning maps from
the Killing Floor Grindhouse custom map making competition as official
custom maps for Killing Floor. 

Killing Floor Guest Passes - We will be making guest passes available to all
owners of Killing Floor. With these guest passes owners of KF will be able
to allow their friends to play the game for free for a short time. We expect
a large influx of players this weekend because of this. 

 

Red Orchestra

 

Mare Nostrum Mod Content Update - The brilliant Mare Nostrum mod for Red
Orchestra is receiving a major content update today. The update adds 26
Brand New Steam Achievements, 7 New Maps including a paratrooper assault on
the island of Crete and wide open desert tank warfare holding the Gazala
Line, 10 New Vehicles including new British, German, and Italian Tanks, 7
New Weapons, and new playable soldiers including Polish, Italian, and German
units. This is an Official RO mod released over Steam, so servers can be
installed using HLDS with the game name marenostrum. 

 

We ask that any server admins looking to help support the mod community for
Killing Floor or Red Orchestra please host some Defence Alliance 2 and Mare
Nostrum servers. Any additional servers would be greatly appreciated. 

 

Thanks,

 

John Gibson

Will launching Defence (with a 'C'?) Alliance 2 be the same process as
killing floor? Almost have our servers up, but just need to know what we
need to do to launch them.

Re: [hlds] Updates/Releases today - Killing Floor Update, Defense Alliance 2 for KF mod release, Mare Nostrum RO Mod update

2009-12-11 Thread John Gibson

f0rkz,

There should be a sample batch file called da2_server_launcher.bat in the
Killing Floor system directory that should give you an example commandline
for launching the DA2 server. Take a look at that, and if you still have
questions let me know.

holy crap that's a ton of content ... I assume for the defencealliance2
mod, it will install into its own directory on the server - or do I need
to run it from the same install my KF server runs out of?

Also, with the free passes, I assume the recipient can install the DA2

Rick,

You can either install DA2 on top of an existing KF install, or you can just
install it in a separate folder. Either way, the KF content will be
installed, and DA2 will be installed in a subfolder under the main KF

And yes, the guest passes will allow players to play KF or DA2.

Are the DA2 and KF servers separate or can a DA2 server install also
boot as a KF server?

 holy crap that's a ton of content ... I assume for the defencealliance2
 mod, it will install into its own directory on the server - or do I need
 to run it from the same install my KF server runs out of?

 Also, with the free passes, I assume the recipient can install the DA2

 Alliance 2 for KF mod release, Mare Nostrum RO Mod update

 I wanted to give all the server admins a heads up that there are several
 big
 update/releases coming out today for Tripwire's games. Here is what we
 have
 coming:



 Killing Floor



 Defence Alliance 2 mod release - DA2 is the first total conversion mod
 to be
 released for Killing Floor. This futuristic team based multiplayer mod
 has
 been described as a combination of Halo/COD/TF2. Since the mod is going
 to
 be released through Steam, the server install can be acquired through
 HLDS
 like any other Steam dedicated server. The game name for HLDS is
 defencealliance2.

 Required Killing Floor Update - a required Killing Floor update will be
 released today. This update will add several of the top winning maps
 from
 the Killing Floor Grindhouse custom map making competition as official
 custom maps for Killing Floor.

 Killing Floor Guest Passes - We will be making guest passes available to
 all
 owners of Killing Floor. With these guest passes owners of KF will be
 able
 to allow their friends to play the game for free for a short time. We
 expect
 a large influx of players this weekend because of this.



 Red Orchestra



 Mare Nostrum Mod Content Update - The brilliant Mare Nostrum mod for Red
 Orchestra is receiving a major content update today. The update adds 26
 Brand New Steam Achievements, 7 New Maps including a paratrooper assault
 on
 the island of Crete and wide open desert tank warfare holding the Gazala
 Line, 10 New Vehicles including new British, German, and Italian Tanks,
 7
 New Weapons, and new playable soldiers including Polish, Italian, and
 German
 units. This is an Official RO mod released over Steam, so servers can be
 installed using HLDS with the game name marenostrum.



 We ask that any server admins looking to help support the mod community
 for
 Killing Floor or Red Orchestra please host some Defence Alliance 2 and
 Mare
 Nostrum servers. Any additional servers would be greatly appreciated.



 Thanks,



 John Gibson

A DA2 server install can boot as a KF server as well, as long as you use the
standard KF commandline to launch the server.

 Alliance 2 for KF mod release, Mare Nostrum RO Mod update

 I wanted to give all the server admins a heads up that there are several
 big
 update/releases coming out today for Tripwire's games. Here is what we
 have
 coming:



 Killing Floor



 Defence Alliance 2 mod release - DA2 is the first total conversion mod
 to be
 released for Killing Floor. This futuristic team based multiplayer mod
 has
 been described as a combination of Halo/COD/TF2. Since the mod is going
 to
 be released through Steam, the server install can be acquired through
 HLDS
 like any other Steam dedicated server. The game name for HLDS is
 defencealliance2.

 Required Killing Floor Update - a required Killing Floor update will be
 released today. This update will add several of the top winning maps
 from
 the Killing Floor Grindhouse custom map making competition as official
 custom maps for Killing Floor.

 Killing Floor Guest Passes - We will be making guest passes available to
 all
 owners of Killing Floor. With these guest passes owners of KF will be
 able
 to allow their friends to play the game for free for a short time. We
 expect
 a large influx of players this weekend because of this.



 Red Orchestra



 Mare Nostrum Mod Content Update - The brilliant Mare Nostrum mod for Red
 Orchestra is receiving a major content update today. The update adds 26
 Brand New Steam Achievements, 7 New Maps including a paratrooper assault
 on
 the island of Crete and wide open desert tank warfare holding the Gazala
 Line, 10 New Vehicles including new British, German, and Italian Tanks,
 7
 New Weapons, and new playable soldiers including Polish, Italian, and
 German
 units. This is an Official RO mod released over Steam, so servers can be
 installed using HLDS with the game name marenostrum.



 We ask that any server admins looking to help support the mod community
 for
 Killing Floor or Red Orchestra please host some Defence Alliance 2 and
 Mare
 Nostrum servers. Any additional servers would

The release should be going live any minute. 

Regarding the website, the mod team unfortunately had an issue with their
website this week (yeah I know terrible timing). From what I hear, it should
be coming back up any time. The website is www.defencealliancegame.com. In
the meantime you can check out a trailer here if you want to see what the

You can try setting the MinPlayers value = 0. Although I highly suggest
leaving at least 6 bots in the server. DA2 has some of the best bots I've
seen in a mod, they can build turrets, complete objectives, use grenades,
heal other players, etc. And they will help players have fun on the server
until other players join.

  Thanks for the fast and detailed responses John!
 
  Are the DA2 and KF servers separate or can a DA2 server install also
  boot as a KF server?

  Rick,
 
  You can either install DA2 on top of an existing KF install, or you
 can
 
 
 
  just
 
 
 
  install it in a separate folder. Either way, the KF content will be
  installed, and DA2 will be installed in a subfolder under the main KF
  folder.
 
  And yes, the guest passes will allow players to play KF or DA2.

  holy crap that's a ton of content ... I assume for the
 defencealliance2
  mod, it will install into its own directory on the server - or do I
 need
  to run it from the same install my KF server runs out of?
 
  Also, with the free passes, I assume the recipient can install the
 DA2
  mod as well?

  I wanted to give all the server admins a heads up that there are
 several
  big
  update/releases coming out today for Tripwire's games. Here is what
 we
  have
  coming:
 
 
 
  Killing Floor
 
 
 
  Defence Alliance 2 mod release - DA2 is the first total conversion
 mod
  to be
  released for Killing Floor. This futuristic team based multiplayer
 mod
  has
  been described as a combination of Halo/COD/TF2. Since the mod is
 going
  to
  be released through Steam, the server install can be acquired through
  HLDS
  like any other Steam dedicated server. The game
