Server Support / Handling Server Messages
« on: Friday, July 08, 2016, 03:11:36 AM »
There are two ways to get server forcing text to be scrolling at console. One way is to repeat Welcome Message / Message Of The Day -lines by enabling repeatmessage from system/aa25.ini. These are boolean values where 0 is false and 1 is true. Most likely you don't want to use this method just to scroll text in console, so keep repeatmessage disabled

Code: [Select]
repeatmessage=0
I'm using services from two providers here as an example. If you rent a server from Vortex Servers (NA servers), you most likely have servermessage.cfg file at system/pb folder. If you rent a server from Hosters.at (EU servers) you most likely don't have this file ready for your use. I'm not familiar how it is with other providers nor home servers. If the file exists at system/pb folder, delete it.

Have a look at this forum post: http://aao25.com/forum/general-chat-90/server-messeseg-question/msg16328/#msg16328 and download the serverrules.zip file uploaded by Ru$tY.

Open serverrules.cfg from the .zip file with such a text editor that would be able to show the file in correct encoding format, guess basic Notepad would work in Windows, TextWrangler works for Mac users. Linux nerds are able to find themselves the program what to use :P

As you can see from the file, server messages will be posted with pb_sv_task [time1] [time2] say command. [time1] is just an order number in which order will the messages be shown. Note that it'll go from the highest value to the smallest one, it kind of prints the message upside down. TIME2 is the frequency in seconds that the message repeats, like -[sVs]-Beamer is saying at other thread.

Correct encoding of the file seems to western. If you mess up the encoding, those colour codes provided by Ru$tY. at the end of his serverrules.cfg file wont work.

Note that in Ru$tY.'s post they have differently named files, I'm not sure would it still work like they were guiding back in 2012, but nowadays system/pb/servermessage.cfg file is the one that will be shown in console as a scrolling message once it's placed into system/pb/ folder.

So once you have downloaded the .zip file uploaded by Ru$tY. just edit the content of his serverrules.cfg the way you want and change the colours how you'd like them to be. When you're done, don't just save the file straight away, use Save As feature to be sure you save it in correct encoding format. Also you need to rename the file, so save it as servermessage.cfg.

When you have created new servermessage.cfg file in correct encoding format (western), go to your server administration / game panel, or navigate to the correct folder via ftp or locally if you're using home server, have a look into system/pb folder if servermessage.cfg file exists, if it does then delete it. When there's no such a file at the folder anymore just upload your recently created servermessage.cfg to the system/pb folder and when it's there, restart your server to get your changes to work.

If you edit the servermessage.cfg file via web browser, where content of servermessage.cfg is opened inside of textarea to be able to edit it, submitting the edit form will change the encoding of the file to UTF-8 and colours wont work anymore. Also when you open western encoded file in web form you wont see the content correctly since the web form doesn't understand such encoding as western.

All the credits goes to Ru$tY. who took time to solve this back in the days.

Caution: This is going to be a long post.

ronski, thank you very much for taking that step, but its not needed. you just should stop with that forum thing, thats all you should do. stay back and watch. stop trying to be one of this. i could be come good then, dont know, but its a try. you did say you will do anything to let this game stay - now you have a chance doing so maybe.
Quote from: [.noMAD
.Falicon]
yes, this might be the solution. with - sorry to say but true - Ronski the problems did start, maybe uninstall the game now and we can see if the war is over. maybe it is, maybe not. but its a try. and for mia darling, ronski is not the hero, far away from hat, far far far far far far far away. but you cant handle it i know. the guys with the hero tag are: BigSergio, Spanky, ELiZ, JonnyM and 2-3 others. so maybe have some dreams, i will not ring the bell to wake you up :)


Good friend of mine told me one day at work about this game, it was somewhere in February 2014. That time I was going for two jobs, mainly worked as Web Developer / Designer in micro-sized company with only a few co-workers but also some random days a week as a lifesaver at swimming hall. I managed to create an account and install the game to my crappy PC on March 5th 2014. This was damn hard game to start playing after years spent with Quake III Arena. Also my lousy graphic-card didn't help with the experience at all. I remember how hard it was to play for example Hospital, teams and their members confused me a lot. Also the game speed, a lot of buttons to remember, a lot of actions to remember, a lot of rules ( that my friend told me ) to remember. When I managed to get a kill it most likely was friendly. I remember how people behaved against me, I got yelled, kicked, etc. People tend to forget they used to be at very same situation when they started. No wonder new players are giving up with this. That's what I did as well, I gave up, it wasn't worth of spending time with such game.

On May 2014 I got lay-off for three months due to lack of projects at company where I used to work, 10mins after I got the signed paper I got phone call which had huge effort on where I'm now. I got phone call from another company - they wanted to hire me for the time I'm having the lay-off. I took the chance, partly because I didn't want to be unemployed, but mostly because I wanted to see something else from the field I was about to work maybe for the rest of my life. I knew I have to leave the permanent job to get ahead with the career, but before the lay-off I had no balls to leave the company. I was their only web-designer / developer who made almost all the 200 projects we published during that time, I felt they needed me. Oh well I was glad that I was taken into another job so I realised the value of my work. Already after one month of work there in new job - which was small company as well - I found a company that had about 80 employees at that time and they had open position - starting right after my lay-off / new job agreement would end. After two interviews they took me in and I started to work in a company where I'm now in August 2014.

When I got the phone call from the job where I'm now that they wanted to hire me, I was let to choose, do I take Lenovo or Mac Book Pro. It was easy pick for me, I went ahead with apple and it didn't take long when I already installed this game to my new mac. It was way easier to play with stable 60fps almost in any map, still there was a lot to learn. I got more into this game and really started to love it. Time passed by, learnt new things, found new friends and somewhere in March 2015 they took me in to Finnish clan called Seurahuone. These guys have taught me a lot and they still do. Before joining the clan I had no idea of such event as Big Clan Day. I started to love the concept at once when I first played over there. Other players from our clan such as Galle and Kirysha were already actively helping Vanoke with the event. I wanted to help as well and later on I was let to.

About the same time I was taken in to the clan, I created two more accounts since I had three computers; One for me and one for my friend. We didn't create them to start TK people, at that time we just thought it would be fun to be unknown. I still suck in this game but that time I did even more, my friend instead got accused of hacking since he played so well as 10 honor. We didn't play much with those accounts, already first visit at Hospital server caused a forum thread. I remember me arguing with Wickid and Ganja those days, we didn't get along at all. But within few months I had more conversations with Wickid and Ganja and we started to get along. I joined this forum in April 2015. As a static: this post will be my 1853rd one in here, while pm's I have got over 970.

I don't remember from where it started, but in May we started to explore maps and find bug places. Many people joined jumping around with us, but many thought we were just trying to find new bugs for our own use. We posted all the bugs with screenshots and videos here in forum for couple of reasons; To make people be aware that those kind of bugs exists, it's fair that everyone knows about them as long as you are able to use them. Another point in revealing the bugs was to show them for admins if they could fix them. We never showed videos in public how to get into the worst bug spots, those videos we showed only for admins and guess I also showed it for Merlin, he didn't like me publishing those bug places because people might start using more those bugs. Our opinion was that those needed to be revealed since some of them were used by other players. We managed to activate mappers to fix some bugs there were, everyone won - except those who liked to use some of the bugs.

Our clan Seurahuone has always been Finnish clan. People have shown from all over the world their interest to join us but we want to stay as Finnish clan. Therefore we set up kind of sister-clan in July, our second accounts started to carry -brewe^ tags on them. Those our friends who liked to join our ts while playing started to use the same tags with their second accounts as well. Already that time we had all good with Ganja, he was one of the brewe's out there.

During the summer 2015 our clan took care of the Big Clan Day event since most of people didn't want it to stop existing for the summer while Vanoke wanted to have a vacation. Vanoke agreed that we can run the concept in our own way because it was summer time with less players, we spent a lot of time to figure out what maps to play and in which order and we noticed it worked very well. After the summer turned into fall, Vanoke came back to run the event like it was planned. Before the summer clans were running the event, they picked the maps for their weekend when they were responsible of the event. After the summer all the decisions were made on before hand by Vanoke, there was maplist for every weekend from the beginning of the fall to the end of spring. After successful summer all the co-operation was gone and we were needed only as tools to server. To populate and administrate. We wanted to help with the event but not that way that we have to be there every sunday and we are not let to be part of planning anymore. We started to play on Sundays in other servers during three weeks of that fall and noticed that the event seemed to start to die since there were no players. There was literally no other option for us than start playing there again to let it stay alive even though we felt we were there against our own will. Or let's say we were there to make the event work for at least someone - we felt like being forced to be there, we didn't enjoy being there anymore. In November Vanoke posted to forum that Big Clan Day will stop due to constant criticism against the event. The criticism can be read here. All people wanted was to help in improving the concept to be better understood, this was read as a criticism and Like in shouts quoted at the top of this thread - people seem to think my comments killed the event.

The Lounge / Beer - prices, brands and shapes over Europe
« on: Thursday, March 17, 2016, 05:37:24 AM »
Haha you should be. A beer of 0,5L is between 4 and 5 pounds. But im sure you will have an excellent time.  :)
Hehe I was wondering how you found their prices so high, I didn't notice the same but now I see. In Finland 0,5l basic lager is usually around 5€ ( 4£ ), can easily be over 6€ as well. I always wonder how this country can be so damn alcoholic with these prices :D
