Title: Admin-Pro 1.10 Public Beta Release
Post by: Elgan {sfx} on September 06, 2005, 11:49:00 PM
I am releasing a beta to the update of admin pro as i have re-scripted alot of it. Sorry it took so much time howveer im sure it was worth it with everything gained. I have included some more mods. I had lots more planned but i decided to get things fixed first. As it includes many server fixes i thought it would be good to have a better admin pro version out sooner with the fixes rather then later. Fixes not just to admin pro but to server bugs like:

   

   * MG42 Team Swap fix

   * Ladder Team Swap fix

   * MG42 Crouching Fix

   * Land Shark Fix

   * Grenade Drop Fix

   * Grenade Bug Door fix

   * FPS Server Crash fix

   * Player Model SKin fix

   

   The mod also includes the following mods.

   

   * Anti Camper (improved)

   * Anti Spawn Kill (improved)

   * Advanced Weapons limiter and swapper (improved)

   * Music

   * Spec eye

   * Team Balancing (improved)

   * Admin Mod (improved)

   * Jump height Changeable easily

   * Cvar forcing

   * Mines (improved)

   * Time alive (improved)

   * Message Center improoved)

   * Medics

   * Countdown

   * Survivor

   

   Any many other little things you can do.

   

   Many things have been changed and added. Too many to list. i have here a SHORT list. I have not updated the online help YET. With this beta out i cna start to update that. I will also add to it.

   

   If you dont see a feature or thing, Well if i was told about it i have probably added or changed it. many things i found myself.

   

   Lots of things are different and the same. Without any help yet im sorry but bear with me it's a beta for you to test while i write help. BETA! However im sure it grinds 1.00 into nothing.

   

   

   Settings files


   Just to let you know alot of the settings files have changed., you can not use your old Settings files!

   

   Map specific settings files are now in the format of the mapname without the folder prefic. For example.

   

   normal: camper.txt

   1.00: camper_dmmohdm1.txt

   1.10 Beta: camper_mohdm1.txt

   

   have fun, some stuff i stole from the readme.

   ######################################

   

   -----------

   Change Log

   -----------

   

   The change log is too big so I will just list the main things sumerised. A full change log can be found on http://elgan.funmodsforu.com/

   

   * Re- Scripted the main settings and mods loading.

   * Re-scripted mines. Added extra features to them like gun specific disarm and choice over which mines run.

   * Changed Mods.txt to load only settings needed. Extra settings are loaded in real time if needed

   * After restart command is used mods turned on or off stay on or off. Settings are kept correctly over map change.

   * Added new commands.

   * Re-scripted all punishment commands and optimised them.

   * Dead players on duration spot will no longer burn if they do not respawn.

   * Map specific changed to remove the dm/, obj/, or /lib prefix. Single player maps will still work.

   * MG42 team swap fix optimised

   * Fixed various reported and non reported bugs.

   * Optimised console help system and added extra information.

   * Fixed and added to message center.

   * Weapons limiter optimised.

   * Added skin fix by sorridstorker for BT.

   * New bugnade fix from HAL.

   * New mods and gametypes.

   * Survivor and countdown get extra features.

   * Flyable planes eject different to stop jumping under the map.

   * Whole mod runs faster and is more likely to run over other mods using state files.

   

   -----------

   Description

   -----------

      

   The mohaa series most advanced and fasted server side mod. It contains many server bugs and exploit fixes

   making it a must download. It also contains many extra mods and possibilities.

   With this mod admins have more control over players and the mods running. Everything is easily editable via simple text files giving the ability to change mods to how you want them or to setup different mods differently on different maps or just run different mods.

   

   ------------------

   Possible Conflicts

   ------------------

   Mods that use state files or depend on state files are likely to stop functioning correctly. These include mods like weapons limiters.

   

   -----

   Cvars

   -----

   Admin_cmd

   

   This ( admin_cmd ) cvar is the main cvar. The mod uses only one cvar for doing everything!

   

   This cvar can be used to punish/admin players, change settings, change mods, run or stop mods while the server is running without needing to stop and edit the settings files.

   

   ----------------

   How to install ?

   ----------------

   

   Place the Ã...dmin-Pro_1.10_Beta.pk3 inside your maintt/mainta/main folder.

   Place the settings folder in your maintt/mainta/main folder.

   

   If you can not upload a folder to a remote server. Make a new pk3 using either a zip file utility

   like winrar. Optionaly you can donwload and use pakscape. Use the extension .pk3 with both.

   For more infomation on creating a settings.pk3 contact me.

   

   Download the Admin-Pro Server pk3 here

   

   The Admin-Pro Client MENU pk3 will be available soon. It wont upload:@

   

   

   

   Thank you to everyone who helped test and reported bugs.

Hey Elgan... I just put this on our servers and I can not seem to change anything thru rcon... in fact I can not even do simple rcon commands like rcon restart. I didnt do anything different then when I 1st installed the mod... do I need to do something different???

hmm. are you sure you have the correct rcon password?
Title: Admin-Pro 1.10 Public Beta Release
Post by: wcSki on September 07, 2005, 10:33:30 AM
well I am pretty sure... I am rechecking setup right now

   

   We have it on two servers and on one I can use rcon.. the other I can't

   

   The one that I can use rcon in I left on the message center to see if I could turn it off... but I could not. I tells me in console that the command message_center 0 was accepted... but messages still show. I tried restarting the map and still had messages.

   

   I want to be able to use the weapons limiter to have a rifle only server... but the ability to go into the server and shut it off. The server I have no rcon commands has Admin Pro running with just the weapons limiter mod on and I can not use rcon to turn it off.... or rcon for anything. :)

the rcon commands have using "_" have all changed.

   

   

   now weapons_limiter is called weapons-limiter

   

   This is because linux people need "_" for spaces. The menu for the beta is not uploading yet so u have to enter

   

   rcon admin_cmd "message-center 0"

   

   rcon admin_cmd "weapons-limiter 1"

Yes those are the commands that I tried to enter.... and it did not work... but I tried a simple rcon restart command and the map would not even restart on the server that rcon is not working... it is strange. It is working on one server... but not the other.

   

   I know the password is right because console would tell me "bad rcon password" if it was wrong.

   

   Not sure whats going on... I have all mods off except the weapons limiter

   

   Also is there a way to turn camper mod on for converted single player maps??

does rcon work without the mod. i cant tell u why ur rocn is broken:S> i dont know

   

   

   camper can be turned off yes. in mods.txt find where it says map list. and enter the path to a map list. For example

   

   settings/camper.txt::maps

   

   then in camper.xtt make a map list, any maps not in that list the camper mod will not run on.

Yes, rcon was working yesterday without the mod. I will remove the mod and make sure it works without the mod.

   

   Ok well I removed the mod and now something is up with rcon access.... we have no rcon access and can not figure out why... very strange... sorry for thinking it was your mod.

Title: Admin-Pro 1.10 Public Beta Release
Post by: wcSki on September 09, 2005, 09:14:18 AM
I think we have a bug... We are using the Anti-Camping w/weapons check ON on our TDM server... this does not happen all the time... but it does happen... I have Allied sniper set to 0... so Anti-camp should NOT kick in... but sometimes it does. People with the sniper rifle will get hurt... like I said this is not all the time... but enough where we had to take the mod off the server becuase it was not running right. :(  

   

   Any ideas??

probaby is working right but if u are holding a pistol or nade when u stop mooving then  it will count as a nade/pistol

   

   but maybe there is a bug. just to let you know, im looking into it. I have also fixed some toher things and changed some others. should have a new beta out soon. but still BETA

Post by: wcSki on September 09, 2005, 02:20:12 PM
Well we never had complaints like this before.... so I would say something is different.. I talked to one that got hurt and they told me they had the sniper out... and moved to stop being hurt... and then got hurt agian... so it is like its not reading the sniper rifle... and it appears to be only on ALLIES side... axis rifle/sniper is not getting hurt.... just the ALLIES...
