Server Options
« on: Saturday, August 02, 2014, 15:18:00 PM »
 :) hello i'm a regular player of AA and trying to get my own server tweaked just the way i like it. I have the new version of the server, and its running fine my only issue is that the only thing i want on the hud, is the game timer and health. no grenades, no crosshair, no compass, no SAI. you get the point, just health and the timer. maybe not even those. so i did some hunting around and was able to get rid of SAI by one of the GUI server options. Then i realized that diddnt get rid of everything else i was interested in removing so i went hunting through files, found aa25serv.ini in server0/system/server folder. somewhere in that mess i found

MOTDDisplaySeconds=10
bHUDHideAmmoCount=true
bHUDHideWeaponStatus=True
bHUDHideWeapon=true
bHUDHideGrenades=truebHUDHideHealth=False
bHUDHide=true
bHUDHideCombatEffect=true
bHUDHideOptics=truebHUDHideCompass=true
bHUDHideTimer=False
bHUDHideObjectives=true
bHUDHideRadar=true


SO i tried to change the settings as you can see they arnt default and i got this.  see attached picture.

Maybe an option to do Friendly Fire on and OFF? I think this could prevent tking if possible.

hey man i think friendly fire being enabled encourages team communication. If everybody is reporting in and has a plan, really you should know where your team mates are or else you will likely be tk'ing them. i think the SAI takes away communication and teamwork and makes it more like counter strike.

The SAI actually makes the game more realistic. Not everybody gets on TS and not everybody in the server on the team will be in TS. The SAI lets every player know where their teammates are which is something you would know in real life, just by communicating. Consider the SAI a substitute for TS, an even more accurate substitute.

That's true, but there are players who don't understand the concept of teamwork in this game. Those people that never report in or report enemy positions. Those people that get you killed because you didn't shoot because you thought it was a teammate. That's why I think the SAI is a good addition to the game !

That's not true. Like you say yourself, realistic would be having everyone on teamspeak reporting their position. The SAI is there to compensate for the lack of communication. There's nothing realistic about being able to see the exact orientation of 3 different teammates on the map ;)

That's pretty much what he said. He just worded it differently.

It does. I will bet any amount of money that in the not so distant future, a HUD and all info about your squad will be available in real life.

#FreeChavez
Chavez!^ 59m [ASSIST]
given that it was also done by Bart on discord on the assist channel, I can easily post my 2 ini files as well so as to remove all doubts from those who have them
Chavez!^ 1h [ASSIST]
I don't know if you understand everything I write because I'm not a native English speaker..
Chavez!^ 1h [ASSIST]
I have also already written previously that those who have doubts can have the various admins carry out checks and easily see that there is no use of any of the tools that you so highly acclaimed..
Chavez!^ 1h [ASSIST]
leaving aside the fact that those who doubt don't know how to put their hand on the mouse, anyway in the golden years I played with the strongest people in this game and so there was only to learn... there is no tool or who knows what that can be used so don't talk to nonsense.. I just restored a decent computer and set the sound card properly.. for the rest it's all head and hand work

-Finest. 14h [ASSIST]
Hey alkos :) now i know what u mean if u play against Chavez. Watch the last stats, that tells everything. Maybe sharing a room with zibi. Poor..
Chavez!^ 14h [ASSIST]
otherwise I'll uninstall the game and what's been seen is seen. Let's let these people play single map on hospital so they don't cry.
Chavez!^ 14h [ASSIST]
I don't want to have names that don't concern me.. I play clean, I'm clean.. whoever has to check can do it easily.. someone even came out saying you can go arm in arm with zibi or something like that.. leading to the hypothesis that zibi too or whoever makes use of something. disconcerted
Chavez!^ 14h [ASSIST]
given that in the last hour I've played in 4 different maps with people online, I wanted to ask some admin if they can clarify these people who keep crying accusing me of using tools or I don't know what program they think could exist on this game... I don't have never used anything and continue to do so but apparently people who are dissatisfied let off steam by accusing others of meaningless things..
