New server mod

[Hitman]

I was looking around random AMX web sites/forums and found a cool new mod (similar to the way jailbreak is a mod) for servers.

 

It's called the Warcraft III mod, and I think it's pretty dern cool. You connect to a server, join a team, and it asks you (via a menu) what race you'd like to be (Human, Undead, Orc, Elf). Each race has it's own special abilities.

 

When you kill people or plant/defuse bombs you get experience points. Which in turn gives you levels, and each time you gain a level you can gain one of these abilities, each of the first 3 is upgradable 3 times, plus the fourth "ultimate ability" which you bind to a key (for most). Level 10 is maximum.

 

Here's a list of the abilities...

Undead:

Vampiric Aura

Unholy Aura

Levitation

Suicide Bomber

 

Human:

Invisibilty

Devotion Aura

Bash

Teleport

 

Orc:

Critical Strike

Critical Grenade

Equipment Reincarnation

Chain Lightning

 

Elf:

Evasion

Thorns Aura

Trueshot Aura

Entangle Roots

 

You can guess what all these mean, or try it yourself. I set up my cable server to have this mod, so lag is an issue... but with only a few people it's not that bad, especially if you just wanna try it. The IP is 24.196.67.181:27015, hit me up on AIM if you need someone to start a game with: SidHitman

 

Cya in the servers,

Do you have a URL for this mods webpage? Im interested in reading more about it.

[Hitman]

I dunno if it has a web page, but here the important part of it's readme file...

 

Description:

------------

 

When you enter the game you get to choose a race (undead, human, orc or night elf), each race has 3

different skills and an ultimate skill. You start out without any special skills, but as you gain

frags you gain Experience. With each new level of experience you get to select a new skill or upgrade

a skill you already have (the menu will popup at the start of the next round automatically, or you can

do it manually by typing "selectskill" in the console or binding a key to it). Once you get to level 6

you can choose the ultimate skill, to use these your going to need to bind a key to the command "ultimate".

type "war3help" in the game for more details.

 

Server Settings:

----------------

 

There are two modes this plugin can be run in: Short term XP and Long term XP.

 

Short Term XP

 

This is the default, in this mode XP is gained quite fast as is designed so that you should

be able to reach a high level within 30/40 minutes of playing. Your XP, race and skill information

are reset to 0 on each now map. If you just want to have a quick game then this is the best option.

 

Long Term XP

 

This is a new mode added in v2.10, in this mode you gain XP slower than the regular mode

but your XP is kept from map to map. Even if you disconnect and come back later your XP is saved

to a text file and you retreive it as soon as you join the server. XP is saved to "war3users.ini"

in the root CStrike directory. The plugin will first try to save XP for each person based on WonID

if that fails it will use the IP address (this is usefull for lans). Please don't mess around with

this file as it will most likely cause the plugin not to load properly.

 

To activate this mode you must set "mp_savexp 1"

 

please note that this will not take effect until the next map change. Also there is another server

variable that will help you adjust the speed at which you gain levels. "mp_xpmultiplier 1.0", the

default is 1.0, by changing this to say 0.5 it would allow you to gain a level at half the normal

xp required for that level. "mp_xpmultiplier 2.0" would require you to gain twice as much XP to reach

the same level. This is usefull for say lan parties where you want to play over the whole week-end,

you could adjust it take make sure you would reach level 10 by the end of the week-end but not before.

 

XP is saved for each race independently, this means that you can play as one race and then switch to

another race starting from 0 xp. But then if you switch back to your original race you will regain the

XP you had.

 

XP does not stay forever though, once per day the war3users.ini is updated removing any inactive entries.

If you don't connect to the server for a certain number of days you will be removed, there are two cvars

for this:

 

"sv_daysbeforedelete" (default 1)

"sv_dayslevelmodifier" (default 3)

 

sv_daysbeforedelete will set the number of days before you get deleted from the list. The default of 1

allows you to stay "offline" for 1 day without being deleted.

 

sv_dayslevelmodifier is added to daysbeforedelete to give the total number of days you can stay "offline".

is it easiest to explain by example, say sv_dayslevelmodifier is 3. This means that if you have reached

level 3 you will gain an extra day before being deleted, level 6 will get you 2 extra days, level 9 will get

you 3 extra days.

 

the formula is given by:

 

days = sv_daysbeforedelete + level / sv_dayslevelmodifier

 

days are always rounded down to a whole number

I have made the following table to illustrate how it works with default values (1 and 3):

 

level days

----- ----

0 1

1 1

2 1

3 2

4 2

5 2

6 3

7 3

8 3

9 4

10 4

 

This is to prevent the war3users.ini file from getting too big, while allowing high level players to

keep their settings for longer.

 

Also if you want to prevent certain maps from being played with longterm xp, create a file named

war3maps.ini and place it in your cstrike root directory and put the name of the maps you want

on a seperate line, for example:

 

aim_map

awp_map

aim_ak-colt

It's a good mod n all, search 208.254.35.18:27015, this ip has it. It gets annoying though.... when you get level 3 with orc on the critcal nades it can kill like 4 people... so it all depends.

[jb55]

This is the greatest mod ever created, expecially if played on iceworld or grassland. I vote this mod for Intensified

[Hitman]

Yeah! Intensified would be sweet for this ;-)
