Oops. Thought I was still logged in when I posted this:

Cuffo is playing with redeemer enabled, even though the little server message periodically reminds us there are *no* superweapons in server. Probably this is being set manually, and on restart is not. It shouldn't be too hard so make the startup script (whatever) thingy include that setting. Is it? Can it be configured once so it no longer needs constant attention? So as not to post a problem with out a possible solution, a little experiment reveals that adding "Mutator=XWeapons.MutNoSuperWeapon" on the command line of whatever scriptlet invokes the server, and it will always be set that way. If the mutator is simply set in the webadmin, then on restart it reverts. sample command I tested with: ucc server ONS-Torlan?LinkSetup=Default?BonusVehicles=false ?Game=Onslaught.ONSOnslaughtGame?Mutator=XWeapons.MutNoSuperWeapon ?bAutoNumBots=False?NumBots=0 -log=server.log

Currently, when you go to http://www.onslaughthaven.com/community you get the following 404 page, which I thought funny enough to include here: The Aimbot and Hax cannot be found The page you are requesting cannot be served due to the Web service extensions that are configured on the Web server to prevent raggots from getting aimbots. Please try the following: Contact the Web site administrator to alert them that you are a raggot looking for the Aimbots and Hax and they will be able to help you get the help you need. HTTP Error 404 - File or directory not found: Lockdown policy prevents this request. Internet Information Services (IIS) Technical Information (for support personnel) Go to Microsoft Product Support Services and perform a title search for the words HTTP and 404. Open IIS Help, which is accessible in IIS Manager (inetmgr), and search for topics titled How to Enable Aimbot Activity Service Extensions, and About Custom Error Messages.

Thanks, Flitter. It's good to know how UT stats really works, even though it seems broken. I have reinstalled my game a number of times; seems that installing various mods, packages, patches, driver 'upgrades', as well as just uninstalling to free up space when bored w/ game, can lead to the reinstall pattern. It makes me curious then; how do they know I reinstalled the game? What makes my access 'unique' if it is not some combination of my game serial and player name? I have noticed new entries come just because I change my name (there is now a Jammu entry). Maybe I'll keep closer tabs on this.

I don't know how this happens, but happened to me, too. I see 4 entries if I search "unclean", 3 without the GC tag. When I search for "joss" I find 13 entries, 6 of which look like names I would have used. Two of my entries are exactly "Joss /-=GC=-/", and one has only 6 matches played, with 32% eff. Hmmm, I wonder if it has any thing to do with other game type mods? I've played some UT/XMP as well as that baloon game thing.

FR 25 Mar 2005 11:30 Troubles tonight include crashes. Natch. New trouble is every new game starts on Torlan. Many times in a row. Server crashed earlier, started on ArcticStronghold, finished, went to Torlan for several rounds now. On one game change, my client disconnected with error message that my UT2004 client was incompatible with the server version (paraphrased). Really odd, since I had already played many rounds. Some other players (inc. IS) mentioned their client tried to load ArcticStronghold, then disconnected. The rest of us loaded and played Torlan while the unfortunate ones finally reconnected.

Thanks for pointing this out Primus. I've DLed it and played a few games, online and local. Boy are those bots stupid LOL I played U2:XMP last year for a little bit. I know it has a pretty dedicated following, but also a pretty small group of ppl playing. Maybe this will stir some new interest. I really enjoy this type of game. Seems even a bit more involved than Onslaught. I even like the slower pace of the game, heh.

Hi. Just tried to join @ 7:00 & 7:15, but no response. Ping is OK, though.
