Hey ish, said hi to you a couple times on Lore but you ignored me so....
Welcome back.

@ ¤ © @ $ ¤ :P I know what MIA stands for

@ Warfare: Sorry, I was probably AFK

Now, time to start my work here....

[Ishbuu]

You were Artist AFK? Huh...
Anyways, a brief update:
-Warfare's hell-bent on making ModWizard 2.0 (but it might as well be 3.0 given all the upgrades),
-Art finished his admin script, and it took over completely,
-I started 2 dedicated servers that don't require any predownloads at all, but are jam-packed with hacks,
-War and Splam are working on a packet-loss script,
-I switched to Linux.
Now, I forgot: Do you use Linux or Mac OS? Because if you use Linux, I could use some advice (distro: Ubuntu 6.06).

^My script never really wanted to work on Macs... But I fixed it and it should be released sometime this week :)
(Its ready but I'm doing a major wrok arround the site, the layout is bad...)

I use WinXP Pro for my work station. Dedicated servers I run on a linux server. So, now what do I plan to do? 1st on my list is to clean up Art Crazy's admin script (your coding is an atrocity Art :P) and after that I'll rewrite KOTH (neet some old skool TBM action) and magic up some cleaner maps.

My mods will be clean, professional, and made for playing. While the pure eyecandy of most of the current maps is.... Eyecandy, thats really not enough to make a game work well, and it distracts from the base gameplay. Right now I'm about half way through cleaning up Art's script, even though cleaning up is an understatement (if/else statements - LAZY) and adding/removing what I see fit. I'm removing some of the more silly bits, reworking the admin level system (it sux :P) as I put below...

The higher levels have the abilities of the lower levels and their custom ones. Any suggestions would be nice ;)

ISHBUUS BACK!
Hi. XD 'member me? :o_{although I dont think you do...}

Done writing KOTH over again, also finished a very basic outline of the admin stuff. Did all the cleaning I want to, but I'll wait till later to make the major modifications.

Welcome back.

Well hello ish...where'd you disappear to? %) welcome back, lol

Maybe a bunch of the good developing folks like -z-, Nyar, Warfare, ArtCrazy, Ish (and others) could come together and crank out something newly awesome. :)

Welcome back..
I just re-joined a few days ago (do you remember me?)
and now I am out to catch up with the modding community
and create some cool maps..
hehe I already started =P (having problems with multiple weapons tho)

King Of The Hill coding has been finishified. Me and Art tweaked it for about an hour before we got it right. Server's up as I post this :)

[Ishbuu]

Good To Have Ya back , Ish :P

It's bubu bot!
