So let's hear everyone's good, bad and ugly valentines day stories! A couple of years back, I think just before covid hit, I liked this girl. Friends with her sister, cousins and mother and I'd go out drinking with her sometimes. Decent friends with them all. Anyways one day I was at her house and talking to her mother having a few beers and pretty much got permission to ask her daughter out. I think the daughter was in bed or something I don't remember. And before anyone asks ... no. I didn't pretend to be a plumber and spend 4 hours trying to fix their pipes in an epic 4-some. A couple weeks passed and I worked out a plan for valentines day. I went and bought her something like this. She's a big Disney nerd and I figure I'd be the Beast to her Beauty or something. I popped over while she was at work and left it for her to unwrap. It had a card in it as well, I don't remember exactly what I wrote but I remember it being fucking embarrassing lol. It turns out she waited until her mother and sister were home together to open it. All 3 of them thought it was going to be a joke and were quite shocked by everything A few messages from them back and forth and it's fair to say it backfired. She held on to the rose but I got well and truly friend-zoned. Worse actually as we very rarely speak and never go out any more. Me and the whole of that family. Someone once said, "No-one ever fell in love without being a little brave". Fuck em Share the stories if you have any ladies and gents Someone's gotta have something worse than mine ... or better! ❤️

Beautiful. Can we make the forums pink this weekend too? (And keep it pink)

In a perfect world everyone would press F3 and the map would start with everyone ready but it doesn't work like that on a pub server. I'm guilty of being afk the start for many reasons with the majority me thinking I would be back in time. And being a high admin I can't be put spec until I run the length of the inactivity timer It's up to everyone to call out afk people. You die and Tom is still stood there when you respawn? Call it out. He'll be put spec if he doesn't respond. Besides it's not something TM can do I don't think? Submit a ticket ... request ... whatever it's called on github to the devs.

If the inactivity timer was short, like 10 seconds for example, then it would impact people who chat. You stop to type and the timer starts. I sometimes get the automated warning because I've been typing too much and that's with it at 30 seconds or whatever.

https://github.com/etlegacy/etlegacy/issues/1498 It was pushed back from the current 2.79 release to the 2.8 release, or so it appears. No clue how far along it is to being implemented or anything.

Wait a minute ... I changed the spawn times by a few seconds months and months ago. I was hesitant to change it more than a second or two due to how different attacking the first and second part are. Did I change the wrong teams spawn time and no-one noticed? Pretty sure I didn't change the time limit though.

It sounds like Haunted Mansion. You build a bridge on one side. There is a forest but it's all out of bounds and there is a graveyard on the first part I think. To get to the final mansion you have to blow a coffin ... I think? https://et.trackbase.net/map/25/

I was looking forward to this being a topic of Eagle raging, then I saw the date. I'm disappointed

It's pointing to the wrong folder so it doesn't see any pk3 to load up? C:\Users\Donald\AppData\Local\Temp/etmain The / is the wrong way around at the end. At least I assume that's your issue.

It's a fast shoot server so if the bots find you and you sit there they'll just kill you. Even if they suck and miss they still shoot 5 rounds a second or something, enough to cripple you. I cannot express how much of a difference fast shoot makes. The bots are there to fill in when a player cannot, therefore should be able to defend itself and attack as such. Treat them a player. Their waypoints limit them to camping or forcing the obj and so on but expect that. Learn from it. Just because it's a "beginners" server doesn't mean it should be cake walk for even the worst players out there.

What does that even sound like? Hoh hoh ho -ooooooooooh ahhhhhhh! I'd be game to collab with someone for some tortured santa sounds.

Shit.

Don't forget guys, at 100, 200 and 300 SR you get special perks to use in game. What these perks are we'll leave it to the dedicated to find out

Sick. Crippled. Old. Sore. Dizzy. Ran across the map 47 times to find someone. Still managed 3rd place. I had fun So close to knifing Mini too! Poor @tupla though, he got so close so many times

It's possibly an issue with the latest release. The mouse and/or keyboard stops working if you turn quickly. If you're on the ETL Devs discord: https://discord.com/channels/260750790203932672/894120312453607485 If you aren't on it then here's some snippets. It isn't something TM can fix if this is your issue Pipo. You could try to download an older version of Legacy and play with that until the hotfix is applied. Just make sure you save your etkey and stuff to save your name and infos.

So many many years ago when I cared about having a config and having everything set to have as big of an advantage as possible, I read that there was optimal fps numbers that helped with jumping and whatever. I don't remember them all off the top of my head but 76 fps was one of them. I use a pretty standard cfg these days and I'm too long in the tooth for competitive shit, but I still have max fps set at 76. Is it worth just unlocking it and let it go wild? I use Legacy client and have a 3070 gfx card which I think is enough for ET on high settings ...? Also can someone explain what snaps is and why 40 is better than 20? Played with both tonight apparently and I noticed zero difference.

While this server never stopped running we have decided to put more effort in to making it work with the latest Legacy release. @Dmxj has helped set up and push the server. We also have @Bystry who has lain the foundations and build the server up to what it is today. The vast majority of all the scripts, lua and configs are down to this mad lad. And we have @eMMiel promoting and pushing the server, finding the fresh meat to play. If any one had any questions, concerns or suggestions about ETL Campaign don't hesitate to message them! The server is made to attract higher skilled people and people who enjoy scrims. Something as a down time or in between matches or whatever. It's a campaign server (obviously) with the current scrim maps in rotation. Snaps is also set to 40 which is a big deal apparently (I've no idea). Anyways the server is up and running and has had up to a 6v6 tonight across multiple maps so far. Go check it out if you want to experience a quieter but arguably higher skill player base (I promise we won't ban you! Maybe). As usual any suggestions are more than welcome. From Dmxj: The server provides the latest legacy client. - 10 map rotation (only scrim maps) - All competitive settings - Official spawntimes - Limited heavy weapons and landmines - Stable ping - First public server with 40 snaps - Time bonusses /connect 37.187.79.49:28010

If you're tabbed out it'll show as 0 ping

Jess just isn't online atm so you can deal with me I suppose I honestly feel like keeping you banned after reading this lol, but I'll unban you. No more of these jokes alright? I'll unleash Jess's fury on you if we find you do!

I honestly never knew visualeffects 0 was a thing. I bow down to you sir.

Random thing. Did anyone ever play SSX Tricky back in the day on PS2? Awesome game. Would play that over fifa or pes against friends back in the day. Hi btw

Is the game using the right sound device? It's probably wrong but there's a digital sound thing and a normal sound thing for me anyways. For example I have the monitor output, headphone output and digital output. The digital one sounds lounder and different at least for me, maybe et is using the wrong output? It could also be using other different sound settings in the "configure" menu greyed out but I've never had an issue where it affects only a specific game. Also nice computer, looks beefy!
