DavidHill

would love to join in, but having problems with cs 1.3 - downloaded it yesterday but now its saying i need another download to hl version 1.0.0.8? approx. 75meg anyone else had this, or is it me?

Steve Perriam

indeed you do David.

the HL update is also vital and needed to play CS 1.3.

depending upon your current version of HL it might not quite need to be that big a download ?

check out your current version before you download that big file.

if u do need it set getright downloading and it can even redial your isp if it loses connection....can do it overnite or start it off during the day ?

hope to see you soon when you are all setup.

cheers

hopefully see you there

Puff The Magic Wagon!

iTrader: (2)

Not for me

'fraid that rele is back again

Should be OK Thurs (depending on time)

Sorry m8

Steve Perriam

deano : afaik you can export your contacts and then import them back again. try it - icq is v useful to keep track of peeps and let them know where u going etc.

equally for leaving messages when peeps are not online - easier than e-mail ! mine runs up when pc starts and defaults to do not disturb so cs doesnt have a fit when someone messages me !

try looking at jolt.co.uk / barrysworld.com or counter-strike.net for assault 2k info - never seen it and hope never to cos i h8 assault !

steve

BarryK

I found a dedicated assault2k server, but it was nguk, so not sure if it still working.

Tell you later.

Map changes in it are
1) The vent tunnel above the room has a dog leg in it, so Ts can't just chuck bombs in it for 90 secs.

2)The back door is now an electric roller shutter with associated noise. The entrance way is much wider.

3) Where the hossies are has been redesigned, made bigger and more useful.

4)There is an articulated lorry parked at 90 degrees to the main doorway, so you can hide behind it, jump on to it etc.

5) Inside there is a rental van (Renault Kangoo or whatever)of Ford Escort type proportions slap in the middle. The hand rail on the gangway that runs above the main door is broken so you can easily jump down now.

6) Various crates have been strewn about in keeping with the new features.

7) Outside for the CTs a Hummer has been left with a Monitor of the inside of the building just near where you run to the back door or ladder. The old CT truck has another vehicle parked in front of it now for added protection for sniping CTs. Presumably.

Er, that's it.


I think it's better than the other one.

I can definately make this one. Got a better mike arrangement now. Found a mono headset/boom mike. Having removed some of the bits I dont need the boom arrangement is now cabletied ( ) to my headphones. Seemed to work better last night.

N.b. you can hear your own voice if you do a "voice_loopback 1" at the console. Start a LAN game on your own and you can run around talking to yourself....Look Doctor its all perfectly normal.

Maps:

Aztec
Inferno
Survivor

Can we arrange a before/after public server fro meeting up for those that want more than an hour. There is uk2 server with very low grav settings so you can jump and fly around the map (great for survivor!). Its all a bit UT but great fun.

Deano

Steve Perriam

yipppppppeeeeee a few replies !

sorry to hear that puff, get rid of them quick ! or just come play for an hour !

glad its sorted JJ.

deano : we usually use Countermaps but with nguk problems its not been updated to 1.3 so not sure where we can go other than go there at the time ?

this is y its useful if everyone has ICQ and is running it.

'ere m8, u mentioned UT on a CS thread - go wash your mouth out with soap now !

cya l8r

steve

dsmith

ICQ gets complicated...I have an insatllation on my Win98 partition but have been uisng Win2K more recently - can I copy ICQ contacts between Installations ?

Alternatively I could plug my laptop in and use that for ICQ... Hmmm

Ayyone got a URL for Assualt2K map and what are the changes ?

Steve Perriam

ok campers maps for tonite are :

inferno
survivor
dust2

20 mins on each.

FF will be on.

voice will be on !

cya soon

steve

Steve Perriam

that was fkin kewl

some lag and u lot r still lpbs's but a damn good short session.

pity we did not have more. dust 2 was 2 damn big for us and suddenly goose and jt disappeared.

glad voice working now bazza.

i think its a brilliant additional to a superb game.

roll on tomorrow for a decent lenght sessionwith more peeps.

ps cant remember who jaybee was but hes more than welcome anytime.

Good games on inferno and survivor.

Ts had it a bit rough on inferno but Steve Barry and Myself had the comms working really well by then.

Co-ordintaing defence on Survivor worked well too. If only you could shoot that damn Eagle in the ravine and the howling dog by the plane

Can't make tomorrow but be back next week

BarryK

The weirdest thing about voice comm is being asked "where are they/you?".

Finding fitting descriptions for map locations that you know in your head is really quite difficult. The new bomb site in Inferno got christened as "the patio thingy".

I found myself referring to "the balcony near the little house/room the terrorists usually hide in" etc. We need as a team to settle on some common descriptions.

Very odd.

Steve's voice comm was clear as a bell, Deano's kept emitting a short shrill noise evry now and then (exasperation I think). JT's was fine.

I wasn't on anyone elses team was I?

Good game, good game, Brucie Bonus etc.

CU later.

J T

Good Game last night, worked well with voice comms on Survivor.

I got kicked out when you went to Inferno, it said my inferno.bsp was different to the servers.

Any ideas?

See u tonight

Steve Perriam

good session,albeit short

i agree bazza trying to describe somwhere whilst actually running and not getting shot makes for interesting descriptions !

yep, everyone says my voice comms is really clear.

using a microsoft gamevoice with a soundblaster live full card. never had a problem - installed and tested fine. its gr8 on public servers to.

deffo big lag last nite - but i cant say thats the voice cos i always suffer from it and its no worse now with the voice added ?

jt : u need updated inferno m8 - its changed quite a bit in 1.3 - u got retail ver of cs ? check out

Steve Perriam

decided on new post rather than editing !

JT : goto

BarryK

Yep JT, the retail version was missing sprites for survivor and the entire map (changed) for Inferno.

Go to

dsmith

I thought we got it sussed on survivor.

4 areas of the map

Plane
Truck
Ravine
Village

Think they should send us to afgahnistan. Though we might run of terms for the rescue mission.. Where are you ? "Valley" or "Hill"

AndrewW

Good game,

Really enjoyed it ...

Until I kick because my inferno file was different to the servers

Will get the new version so as to be ready for tonights session.

aka Crispy Goose.
