Greetings,

Migrated THW to new version of the Extreme MOD (2.3 vs 2.0)

The address for the new server ts.teamhousewares.com IP: 140.239.138.38 (same one we played on last saturday) We just changed the DNS, so there is a chance you’ll need to point to the IP to find us.  When in doubt, check it out with good ole ping first.

Some of the New stuff
New version has a “Add to Favorites” if you hit ESC in game.  Might help people who have connected and liked us, but maybe forgot to add us to their favorites?  I’ll leave it up to bink to test, and then maybe add that to his welcome. ;)

End of Game - Extreme Stats now show up

Live Stats.  Holding Melee attack down for 5 secs will toggle on/off your stats.

MGs still moveable, I’m not sure if the custom bash code works? 

Can’t remember what else… Ohh, the bad news....  I ddin’t want to mess with THW so this is thw2. What does this mean?  we all need to download the 96meg map patch again.  yea us.

There are a bunch of other options MAC, and ash need to probably go through, I choose ones that made sense to our play style, plus 1 that will make havoc happy though not sure it will stay in past this saturday.

Well if you all hate it easy to go back. ;) I’ll be watching teamspeak if anyone wants to test this tomorrow. As it’s now 2:45am err 3:04 on Friday, I’m going to bed.

err 3:21 that’s it, I’m calling it good for now, and for tomorrow night.

Zeke, you have the download somewhere else besides the server?
Maybe a link for us Housewares guys to dl it instead of having to use the CoD to download?
Please?
Please?
I have been sitting at “estimating” for ever now
The CoD 2 Downloader is sucking bro.
Screw CoD 2 I am playing CoD 4 from from now on!

Greetings,

The map, and mod IWD can be downloaded:  http://ts.teamhousewares.com/cod2/thw2/

Even easier.
I just copied over the thw_maps.iwd from the thw mod, so if you make a new mod folder in the COD directory and call it thw2 you can just copy the 96 meg maps iwd over to the new directory.
You’ll still have to download the mod.iwd thought he website or in game though.  It’s 14meg.

I think I saw a linux server for it already, just waiting on mac for COD4. 

Bah downloads But it sounds like a BBQ today for bit at least so come one, come all.  Guess I should go and download to so I can beat the rush.

As of CoD4 been playing alot but getting ready to do more of the custom servers.

Mac wants to know why you broke everything?

Wasn’t me! I just collect lead, a few ounces at a time. 

Everyone complained about no stats last week (end of game) so I had too.  You and mac are to busy to properly take care of the server.  ;P Mountain biking I’d guess, otherwise mac would have had it fixed with to shakes of a dead cat.

looks like it all resolves correctly now though.  ;P

unable to connect to ts or COD after copying files from thw to thw2.  Guess gaming if off tonite since no one is on server anyway.

Somehow I have been banned from Housewares. Feeling a little like Steve Jobs when he got kicked out of Apple. I went and got some ice cream to make myself feel better, but alas, even after ice cream...still banned. Guess I’ll have to look into that during the week. I’m off to bed.

Eagerly looking forward to some more Team Zekedog showdowns!

Looks like it was triggered for failed access to the new rcon console…

Thanks to whoever told me to press M, and then the combination

I knew zeke was looking for a way to keep me down. Tha Man is keepin me down!

I told Zeke to take flamethrowers out since it would be fair to you guys.

Actually they were too silly.  Looks like the moded a SMG since it fired big balls of fire for short distance instead of a stream of fire.

I had some weird issues when I got autobalanced but no one else seem to have the problem.  Beyond that and trying to figure out some stuff it wasn’t too bad.

Right before I got kicked I noticed 5.56 had a weird, or modded, Springfield sniper. And whatever it was that replaced the smoke grenade was kinda lame.

I don’t think I will play on this new server, sounds no fun.

I know the nades that replace smoke were mustard and napalm. Neither killed unless you were wounded. Not sure about side effects of mustard because I didn’t get hit but the sounds Bink made sounded bad. Napalm has you set of fire for a bit taking damage so your probably more visable also.  LR mode is like a mini rocket launcher with no/little splash and it takes more than one hit to kill despite how big the explosions are. Not sure of the setting but I bet all can be adjusted.

Several “new” maps are also in along with a bigger choice for vote. Not sure if we saw all of them or not.
