This will be my running log of everything that I do to the Tomb is the never ending quest to bring it back up to date...

Today

corrected all in game advertising to current game names and ip addresses

modified motd to remove now out of date information

added arena_b6, school, and pedestal

  •  I fogot the version number on school.. 8a i think.. please check this Illenta to make sure it is most up to date
  •  I will also be adding arena b4 as well.. 6 is a bunch prettier but 4 does not lag nearly as much and is better for crowded servers
  • I have also talked to sunfox and will add terminal as well. like arena b4 i just need to prepare the new files since they were not on the old server
  • will also look into setting up rcon votes which would allow players to vote server settings to normal or to the usual each map. I will plan for each map to run the modded settings with the ability to vote on the normal settings for a one map duration. weapon damages are not changeable by this meathod. These votes will be able to change things more like gravity and speed.
  • One last thought.. what are the current version of pond and bedroom_warfare? whut packrats all versions from the beginning of time in these folders

well that is all for now... I will be back later to add more

It is offical now..

Arena B4 has been added as part of the map cycle for now.. Arena B6 is still there but only as a vote option.

Heh.. you aint played diceroll til you played it in the arena

Looking for suggestion as to the best of the killbox maps.. ? Looking for the best one to run regularly.. maybe one or two others as vote options

Oh yes.. and one more thing.. to pay homage to our long lost friend.. I am also looking for a sample of one or two of the best Rat maps

and Whutdufuk will be making a votelist return as well... Tomb would not be the Tomb without DM_Whutdufuk..

I am thinking about playing with map configurations for one of two of the dm maps.. just to add some spice.. like gravity changes or maybe super speeds for all. I dont know maybe a little 5 min map of Dm_whutdufuk at high speeds or something like that.. or maybe low grav and it will play like you were on the moon

LAST MIN UPPPPPDATE: --- Terminal added.. newest version even though i dont like it quite as much but sunfox made me promise

current versions of maps:

ctf_school_b8a
ctf_bedroom_warfare_b2c

if you need any of these files let me know and i can e-mail them to you.  in the meantime, i am updating the look of complex, so expect a new version of that one very soon.  this month is a very busy one for me, so it should be done early july.

As you most of you have seen by now the logo izing of the Tomb maps is going well. When someone plays with us they definately remember where they are at..

You can see screenshots here arena 2fort

(The 2fort logo was already relocated very slightly since this screenshot to get it to line up on the wall better.)

also I have come across some comments that there seems to be a lack of dm maps so our signature map of dm_whutdufuk has made its return. I have also added a killbox map (no rpgs), lost village and the simpsons. The killbox map will be set to run with lower than our usual gravity. It is a VERY tall map and most of the fun to be had in it is while you are floating in the air  I am also thinking about running this as a straight deathmatch map (non-team) Team usually dont work out well when you have very few people on the server 2 on 1 is esp not much fun in teams. This will be just an experiment and will not effect any other map..

I have also added ctf_bedroom_warfare_b2c.

Have been playing around with sounds from the chat line.. Have kept this sorta of quiet because there have been some issues getting the sounds to play for everyone on the server but yourself. I have not been able to test them though because I have not been able to find any of you guys logged into the server for the last few days...

anyway.. try these out and let me know how they work.. and esp if other people hear them when you play them...

.ns (with period)

fvmm

.ed (with period)

if and when the bugs get worked out of these.. then i will enable a better selection.. remember.. you just type the code right into chat.

Play particular attention to .ed. This just may become our new opening sound when the server starts..

Issue Resolved.. if you dont hear server sounds trying typing sounds in your console to turn them on.
