Merek Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 okay so recently I decided to go onto one of my friend's server and my settings like the JA++ stuff come with me but it didn't work. Apparently, he upgraded his server to japro (which i have no idea what that is) and changed his ip. So what is japro?
Ory'Hara Posted December 31, 2013 Posted December 31, 2013 japro is a new mod in the works by Loda of UPS it's a much better mod, with non abusive admin commands
Raz0r Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Why? Keep in mind it doesn't have the same goals as JA+
Link Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 This looks like crap compared to JA+ That's like saying JA+ is crap compared to Makermod because it doesn't have the ability to build things... two different mods with different purposes z3filus and Xanemus like this
afi Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 That's like saying Ja+ isn't crap Xanemus, Ping and Mog like this
Sentra Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 Is there any story about JA+ and why has it become a crap? Missed this
Link Posted January 7, 2014 Posted January 7, 2014 There are different reasons I've heard people think of JA+ being crap. Altered damages/hits from the base game"Chat room" over competitive playAdmin commands/cvarsAuthor vanishes without word randomly (Now completely gone)Author made unpopular changes to the core mod midway throughSimply for the fact it's popularSecurity leaves a lot to be desiredUpdates have gone from frequent to rare and now to noneUnwillingness to share code, find a replacement for the author and make the mod open sourceI'm sure there are plenty of others, personally I enjoy the mod but am willing to change if something better comes along (Which JA++ is doing right now ) Raz0r, garfieldisntfat, Captain Leeroy and 2 others like this

Wookiee Posted January 9, 2014 Posted January 9, 2014 This looks like crap compared to JA+ Maybe because you like to play on 'social mods'.

Astral Serpent Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I really don't see how those are abusive. Things like amslap maybe, where there's not really any use other than lulz. Anything can be 'ab'used, it's up to the admins with privileges of those commands to not abuse them... Raz0r likes this
Raz0r Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 That's the approach I take with JA++ I'll give you all the power. If you make your server annoying to play on, you won't have anyone playing there. The problem solves itself. Omicron, Circa, Lumura and 1 other like this
katanamaru Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 I agree with Raz0r. Even though I never played online I never understood the fuss with admin commands. If someone uses it too much let the server owner know. If it is them or they don't care then play somewhere else. Zappa_0 likes this
Xycaleth Posted January 10, 2014 Posted January 10, 2014 All you need for admining is the kick and ban commands
Omicron Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 Does JA++ have ampunish and amslay? I know that older versions of JA+ did.
Raz0r Posted January 11, 2014 Posted January 11, 2014 It has amfreeze (same behaviour as ampunish) and amslay.
Bacon Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 JA+ is only abusive when the admins are children or have rules setup so it becomes a place you nod your head or get it taken off. Worst mod I figure is ClanMod if we wanna go down admin powers, But anyways,New mods are fun to check out on if its simply to setup and not release before it really finished Zappa_0 likes this
Zappa_0 Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 true ja+ admin commands are only abusive when the admin is a kid. the admin commands are there to keep order in the server. I have been around since the mod first came out (damn i feel old) and ja+ is a good mod for servers for alot of people. though you complain there not being a source code. its just a too bad of a deal the maker got tired of the game and simply faded away from the game. Im sure he is still around cause someone has to be paying for the hosting of the ja+ website. Bacon likes this
Raz0r Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Except the JA+ site has been down for a while now =]
