European config incoming! (8145 Views)

written by chosen_ on 19.11.06 22:54

Today we would like to present the new European Enemy Territory configs, which will be adopted by most major Enemy Territory leagues, cups and events. This does unfortunately not include ClanBase, as we were not able to reach an agreement at this point.

As a reaction to the public outcry for an universal config,

Frop, the league admins and other dedicated people set out to create the config pack you see before you today.

The following cups have agreed to use the new configs in their upcoming or running events:

Quote- Warleagues.com
- Crossfight
- ESL
- #ET-Cup
- #1day-cup
- GET-LIGA

Download the new European configs here.

Global changes
Although the popular Crossfire & ESL configs have been used as a starting point, various CB changes have been applied and a variety of PB checks have been added (thanks to TWL/Even Balance).

Quote o configname European #v#
o b_helmetprotection 0 (unchanged)
o b_floodKickRate 10 (new)
o b_floodKickBurst 15 (new)
o b_floodKickTime 0 (new)
o cl_maxpackets IN 60 100 (unchanged)
o cl_yawspeed EQ 0 (new)
o com_maxfps OUT 1 42 (decreased)
o pb_sv_md5tool checks - checks md5 hashes (such as pak0.pk3) and the existence of various hack .dllâ€™s, .pk3â€™s and .cfgâ€™s (new)
o pb_sv_cvar checks - forces known hack cvars to 0, such as et_aim, et_shoot, et_wall, etc. (new)
o mapscripthashes - checks the hash of the mapscripts, added for all maps with their default mapscripts (new)

Find the full changelog for each gametype here.

When to use
You will be informed accordingly by all the leagues and cups when to switch to the new set of configs! This post will be updated as soon as more information has been made available.

shpek Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:15

hmm

bo Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:24

really nice one :)

skooli Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:26

thanks cb for not following -.-

doneX Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:42

Thanks them for getting out of the config when we had one and pretty lame you are using this name.

Frop Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:46

It was pretty much the name I had in mind when I started out, didn't really feel like changing it.

Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:49

pls go irc, dont argue here... :|

both of you disappointed the community

doneX Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:52

Can you explain the community the reason why you keep "cl_maxpackets IN 60 100".

Frop Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:54

What exactly did I do again? :D

apple Monday, 20th November 2006 09:49

n1 frop. if its the config we used on the idle server the other day, very nice. :)

Squall Monday, 20th November 2006 12:03

ye maxpackets should be in 76-100

chosen_ Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:49

seriously, it's your own mistake not having any configs finished (few weeks ago, may u remember) and not wanting to join any conversation. Before "spreading lies", think about your own again.

Also, you stopped making a euro config, this doesnt means other are not allowed to keep on making a european config.

doneX Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:57

keep going your attitude

arni Monday, 20th November 2006 00:08

that happened during your little excursion to 5v5 tbh

doneX Monday, 20th November 2006 00:14

Ask Frop for the logs and check dates.

FlyingDJ Monday, 20th November 2006 00:16

/msg carebear for logs.

arni Monday, 20th November 2006 01:13

doesnt respond :-(

swine Monday, 20th November 2006 07:57

unlucky

Sunday, 19th November 2006 23:57

mission time limits are better at clanbase imo, e.g. 15 mins on adler... for?

you rly should make 4v4 config (even if only for funwars/trainings)

Frop Monday, 20th November 2006 00:00

The timelimits are the same as in the last Crossfire & ESL config, except for the ones mentioned in the changelog.

What sort of features should a 4v4 have then? Less mines or a slightly altered 3v3 config?

Monday, 20th November 2006 00:17

my point about adlernest is:

* if teams are balanced:
1 SW Round: 3-8 minutes
2 SW Round: 3-8 minutes

* if teams are not balanced:
1 SW Round: fullhold (15 minutes of boring game)
2 SW Round: 3-5 minutes
or
1 SW Round: 3-5 minutes
2 SW Round: 3-5 minutes

i see no reason to make adler longer than 10 minutes.

Frop Monday, 20th November 2006 00:18

Will be taken into consideration.

deact_12795 Monday, 20th November 2006 00:27

so if all leagues use now 25 seconds spawn on frost, there is problem with public servers, most of them still use 30 sec spawntime

skooli Monday, 20th November 2006 00:30

where exactly is the problem now?

deact_12795 Monday, 20th November 2006 00:33

the problem is for those who use autoexec_mapname.cfg

EDIT: And they have no place to bind a key for timerinput value switch

skooli Monday, 20th November 2006 00:38

so the configs should be adapted to some public's settings? i think it should be the other way round

deact_12795 Monday, 20th November 2006 00:39

thats what im trying to say mate

i count that a few server admins will read it and change it to 25

swine Monday, 20th November 2006 07:58

the 25sec timer is more important.

1. you need it in wars
2. hard to time the spawn without it
3. 30sec spawn is easier to time

wojo Monday, 20th November 2006 11:36

rate set to 25000!!! and will be goood

gnoj Monday, 20th November 2006 11:45

idiot

wojo Monday, 20th November 2006 11:51

moran :o

BreacH Monday, 20th November 2006 12:18

Well first of all Finaly one global cfg.
second CB why are you guy's not going with it??

I mean it's great that ppl are trying to go for one Global cfg it's mutch easyer to have one globel cfg then like 2 or 3 different per league or cup.
So CB join up and all go for that one big final Global cfg.

i think it makes everybody's life mutch better for the server admins, hosters and cup organizers.

gtv`rampage Monday, 20th November 2006 15:24

i think CB is doing a good thing here.
if all cups got the same config then there will not be variation.
always the same settings/rates/spawntimes.
and with different configs you got much more variation in the game.
for example soldier panzer or no soldier panzer.
maxrate 25000 or higher/lower.
the variation is what keeps et in business.
but of course thats the opinion of a cheesehead

Monday, 20th November 2006 16:06

more configs pls :S

Frop Monday, 20th November 2006 16:50

Actually less, as these will replace the ESL, CF,WL, ET-Cup, 1day-cup and GET-LIGA configs.

katrinelje Monday, 20th November 2006 18:00

i thing this is discrimination
i have dsl 328 and so i play with maxpackets 60 my ping is 500till 999
so good bye wars and good bye leagues
i wont to play with it but i dont CANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

wojo Monday, 20th November 2006 18:27

Your problem, if u dont have normal connection u just cant play, like if u dont have pc u will not play 2.

chosen_ Monday, 20th November 2006 18:33

try /rate 15000 and try new rate settings together with maxpackets 60.

Even with ISDN its possible to use vent and this netsettings!

katrinelje Monday, 20th November 2006 18:35

but i have a pc and i dont understand why it changed
40maxpackets isnt a prob for everyone but 60 get problems for many people

chosen_ Monday, 20th November 2006 19:01

nope, you are wrong

from 100 people, 1 has a proveable problem with it but not thinking of changing it. When ISDN people can play with it, DSL light is also possible, you just ignore what ive said.
