[wH] + UT3 = READY!

[wH] + UT3 = READY!

Ladies and Gents, [wH] is now UT99 and UT3. I've got a (albeit thrown together) server ready for UT3 gaming under the [wH] banner. If you own UT3, you can find us in the vCTF tab under the 'W' section. If you don't have UT3 - go get it... the best $30 you'll ever spend.

The server is located at:
tourian.jchost.net:8888

( to access, load UT3 and hit F10 to bring up console, then type: open tourian.jchost.net:8888 )


I'd like to thank JCHost for the opportunity to try this all out. They also host our UT99 and web services, and they are big-time awesome to us.


The UT3 server is very very far from stock... I've loaded up every player with every weapon, and added a Ripper mod a la UT99's Ripper. We've got a hell of a lot of custom maps... and let's just say... this is gonna be awesome!


FRAG ON!

P.S. if you are part of any other communities, spread the word!

damn you matt... you moved much quicker with this than i thought lol.

Let me assess my funds, and then get back to you with how long it's gonna take me to get up to a UT3 capable computer lol.

Also, either you or me should contact robster_crows (a.k.a. [wH]o from whoshack). I think he'd be down to re-make some maps/weapons from the UT99 server.

While I'm here... any news from the host about my request?

[MSuLL]

Yeah I'll get down with robster and see what's up

Hey Man,

Good to hear from you. Thats cool you have a UT3 server up and
running. I will have to check it out...

The bad news is I have the game, but I just don't have the time anymore
to to do any development work (or playing for that matter). It was fun
in the day, but unfortunately bills need to get paid.

Not sure if you know this or not, but the guys over at pbg were right
into maps and mod for 2K4, and they seems to be right into UT3 maps and
development as well. Here is a link to their forum
(http://poweredbygas.net/forum/index.php). If you go, tell Blockhead
that Robster says hi.

Block really liked my UT2K4 weapons (which i tried to mimic from UT99)
and last I heard he was recreating some of them for UT3. He even liked
the spacebase map, and may do something there.

Anyways, good luck. Hopefully I can get playing someday. Check them out!

Tis a real shame, but I know how it goes. Cheers robster!

I think I may stop by....didn't know it was up yet.

[Alexei]

It's still fledgeling.

At this rate, might be a month or two before I can dedicate some time to it lol...

Not sure about matt.

The daemon isn't staying up on it's own. I'm running it as a shell script in the background, yet when I log off SSH it dies, even though I specify it to continue to run in background via the "&" suffex. So the quick remedy for the time being has been to SSH into the server and start it from another server I operate a work That way at least it's no problem to keep logged into SSH for long long periods of time. I'll get to actually fixing that sometime later, but as of this morning that UT3 daemon should keep the server up 24/7

[Alexei]

I meant maps + mods wise lol.

[MSuLL]

lol... oh

[XpanD]

I... Can't connect. It just shows connecting... for forever.

I tried both open tourian.jchost.net:8888 and open tourian.jchost.net, to no avail...

Long story....

[XpanD]

What happened?

[[wH]old fart]

What happened?

He said long story lol

[MSuLL]

Quick version: built server up, kind of 'on loan' from the host, but I thought it was more permanent than it turned out to be
