Title: "Public Patches"
Post by: Pepper on June 01, 2008, 12:26:05 PM
Now, i know the server is hardly populated, but as i was playing on [SL] i realized something we could do . it isn't ganna make the server #1 or bring loads of  ppl but i know it works because Ive seen .:[R-S]:. do it -=3v0=- do it [nWo] do it and that is public patches. I'm talking like maby a city behind the ricer in Berlin, a race track, or a plane Cours u know something for the ppl that do play on the server to have fun with not putting like mods or bunker but patches to get ppl to fool around on and maby when they go play on a different server or talk with their friends they bring it up and that 1 person brings 1 or 2 ppl with him having the patches to bring some more "life" into the sever i don't think it will be full but Ive seen it work for all the times other clans have done it as for -=3v0=- belive it or not there serrver is like never populated for a couple of mounths when they had public pacthes they went from like 2 ppl to around 15 and if around 10 ppl on our server that could jump to like 30 ppl (during best hours). just like have that jousting bunker on Berlin, a raceway for a map maby a maze, a plane corus and just cool stuff for ppl to do.     i would be happy to build some of this stuff if you guys would like the idea of public none modded patches.

Well, RS patches were too overmodded, and in the end got thier private patches leaked.

[nWo] Isnt exaclty always got lots of people on it.

-[SL]- Dont have patches...

But it could get many people on, who knows, Maybe the heads will consider it  ::)

We can't even get our own mods up to par, what makes you think public patches would get done any faster...

I guess I should had said something different above, Public patches are not needed, make the mods seen just like our turbo jeep, planes, 1 shot kill weapons and so on. But again we can't get the MAFIA patch mods under control, so IMO this shouldn't even be talked about right now.

here is something to think about. The people who play on the server would have to downlad them, put them in their maps folder and then have to take them out to play on other servers. Who wants to do that?

Post by: *MAFIA* Dune Surfer on June 02, 2008, 05:53:58 AM
Yeah, we should try and focus on making the maps more interesting server-side. I'm not sure what the limitations are; but I know you can place pretty much any standard building anywhere on maps if you want to, plus any modded weps or vehicles.

Well, you sure as hell did the opposite as you just stated you wished to do, going off topic. I don't think public patches are necessary. Keeping to the basics, modding our server, and playing the waiting game is all that is needed. Instead of bitching that the server is empty, do something about it, join the server, and wait for people to join you. If it's taking like 30 minutes, just minimize your shit and broswe the net or something. Simple. It's done all the time, and works.
Title: Re: "Public Patches"
Post by: gmc on June 02, 2008, 06:41:05 PM
I would say just make your maps unique from other modded server maps. Make sure you give each player a fair chance. Don't make it so only you guys can access the mods let everyone. Then you could make MAFIA things that only MAFIA could use.

The point of battlefield is to be on different teams and kill the hell out of each other. What fun would there be if everyone was camping on a race course and just messing around. The people that were trying or that are just pricks would just kill the people racing around anyways and ruin the fun. I don't think it would work but we try do what misfit did and have a free patch week or something like that.

I was looking up some cool/fun ways people modded their tanks and weapons and here's what i found. It's also from the secret weapons disc so i don't know if it would still work. My battlecraft has never worked on my comp so i don't know how hard this would be to mod either. My favorite is the robot tank.

But the game is now very old, and will turn very boring for peopl that have played it along time..
So bunkers, mods so on.. Make it a little more fun :)

Its not just *MAFIA* though, because we alone don't populate our servers.  We as a clan are split anyway - some of us want crazy mods, some of us want simple mods, and some of us don't care either way.  Its what will draw people to our servers.  I think the best solution for now is to put all the crazy mods on 1.61, like we already have.  If people want to play them they can go there, and if they want the classic *MAFIA* maps they can play 1.6 like they always have.

I check the status of the 1.61 server on the main page and I have yet to see it with anyone on it.  I am sure there are times in the day when there are people on it, but I haven't seen it.  I am not one who wants "crazy" mods.  Just the ones that we had back in the day when I joined.  Simple little shit.  Also, if we could add some little shit here and there that the pubs can use.  Nothing much, something simple.

that's a totally different mod using the winrfa program and battlecraft (witch fucks everything up and should never use) winrfa is a program that showes number and to add new objects to the game would mean u heaved to donload it as a separate mod! not a mods for bf but like bf dc something totally different its 1 thing that Ive have been folling around with adding m10 cannons to b17 so u can drop bombs and fire guns but making a new mod would be impossible without a hole team of ppl and totally different programs for making 3 dimension objects. as for the s[spider tank its a thing a grope of ppl made and its like DC except u heaved to install it and donload it urself. as for simple mods what u think is simple are actually some of the4 most complet mods i have ever seen.

everything on the mafia server is piratically changed. how planes kill ppl splashdamage on tanks veicals even spray guns are modded pistols flack ex packs bazooka... stationary guns basically every thing u can use is modded. and for every map that isn't normal ctf some one (dont know who) spawned a BB 10,000 ft high and dragged and added spawn point using winrfa and the amount of time that took to add and subrated #'s like (2344.82/648.88/188.09)
(-90.0/0.00/90.00)
- (1.98/1000.99/900.0)
(0.0/0.00/90.00)


for each individual spawn is just amazing to me.

i would never have the time.  i know what u mean by simple mods or surface mods a simple and very! enjoyable but the hidden mods are what blew me away and how great Ur server actually is. the hidden mods are just enouph boost to make it feel closer to single player from the difference of ping.
