  1. Update on the master server situation. IT @ Raven is aware of the outages and are working on the situation. No further information specified.
  2. I suspect that Quake 3 is handled by id, not Raven. Quake 4, I'm not so sure. The last I heard from James Monroe, they were still rebooting the server. I'll send him a personal message about it.
  3. Firefox. I think I can trust an independent, nonprofit organization (Mozilla) more than a big corporation anyway.
  4. Is this some kind of meme or something? Some chick said this sorta thing to me and I had no idea what she was talking about, lol Anyway, welcome OP.
  5. I'm not even aware of any mods that don't have the master server switch, except for server-side mods (which ASE works with), Makermod Client (maybe @@spior still maintains his proxy mod and has a client version?) and JA+ (lol.) Something you can try though, and DISCLAIMER: I haven't tried this, but you might try replacing the JA+ UI DLL in the PK3 with ASE's, as JA+ (to my knowledge) doesn't have many UI features?
  6. Anyway, back on topic here: Were you able to find things okay, OP?
  7. Remember when IE8 was a thing, and it didn't receive a major update in 10 years, holding back some of the more important advancements in JavaScript and CSS. I remember that. My issues with Chrome are strictly related to how it handles security: - It will prevent access to sites using SHA1 HTTPS in the next 10 years, which can be frustrating on internal networks and older websites. - It complains about downloading some files on SourceForge and other sites with the same message as it would with certain types of viruses. This does nothing but spread ignorance. - It complains when a file isn't commonly downloaded, making you click through menus in order to keep the file. - It saves personal details and passwords automatically if the user ignores the (very small) prompt asking if they want to save them. - NO data wiping feature like Firefox has (Can wipe history, cookies, bookmarks etc for 5 minutes, two hours or 24 hours) - There was a big scandal a year or two where companies bought out popular add-on companies and released updates which contained viruses and adware. Since Chrome auto-updates add-ons without prompting the user, and they don't check add-on updates for viruses, millions of computers became infected for (what appeared to be) no reason. - There's many fraudulent mirrors for Chrome which are actively advertised at the top of Google searches for it, ironically enough. - Google states in their TOU for Chrome add-on/app development that they reserve the right to alter (read: Sabotage) apps after they are released on Google Play (or whatever it's called, I forget) I don't support Google development really at all, as their software to me seems impractical and politically motivated. I like to have my software 'just work', without someone else telling me how I should be browsing, thanks. Same goes with Gmail, which fucks with my school email and won't let me read it unless I merge two accounts. Google ought to just stick to search engines, maps, and as a neutral source of information, like code base hosting. They aren't that great at much else to me, really.
  8. MB2 site has security issues with NOD32 which are still unresolved as far as I know. Also, Chrome is trash, so there's that.
  9. Change your debug settings. You should be running from your debug compilation, not moving files around. Right click on the EXE project and hit "Set as startup project" Right click on it again, this time go to Properties (or "Project Properties") In Debug, set the Working Directory to be the same as the output directory. There should be an option somewhere for program arguments. Add: +set fs_basepath "<YOUR_JA_GAMEDATA_PATH>" +set fs_homepath "." +set fs_game "<YOUR_FS_GAME>" It should load your DLLs first, but if you're having problems, change the fs_basepath to fs_cdpath (unless that was removed from OJK)
  10. When it comes to nvidia cards, the higher-order number determines the year, while the lower order number determines the quality of the card. A GEFORCE 260 is older than a 310, but a lot more powerful.
  11. The All Seeing Eye is a .dll type mod for JA which modifies the engine while the game is running, and only works for mods which don't use a uix86.dll or have a custom engine Note that JA++, OpenJK, JKG and MB2 have their own ways for taking care of this, as far as I'm aware. I couldn't be able to do it for JK2 as it uses .qvm instead of .dll files, which, long story short, don't allow you to modify the engine. To my knowledge, there is no (compileable) version of 1.02 and 1.04 that I can use to reproduce the mod as an engine executable. If there is such a project for 1.02 or 1.04, someone could point it out to me, and I'd be happy to add the change in, otherwise it'll take me a week or two just to get the code to compile. And the hard drive on my desktop recently went bad, which means coding on a crappy laptop = plsno
  12. What you've heard is correct. Simply adding a _1, _2, ... to each higher LOD (as the numbers increase, the detail decreases). Note that this doesn't work if you use the model as a misc_model, it has to be misc_model_static or misc_model_breakable
  13. Protocol..16? That's not even remotely correct 8D Make note of what patch the server you're wanting to get on, and make sure yours matches. Then, start up the game with a .bat file: jk2mp.exe +seta protocol ## Where ## is the desired protocol number. If the master server is back up (don't know as I don't have any JK games installed) you should be able to see servers in your "Join Game" menu as well.

    GPL

    Hello, Regarding the GPL: I mistakenly added GPLv3 headers to the singleplayer codebase. The game is really licensed under GPLv2, and the original license files do not explicitly state that they can be upgraded to v3. The files have been changed back to v2 of the license in order to comply with Debian's strict license conditions.
  15. Hi, If your game is throwing issues because of wrong protocol, make sure that the servers that you are trying to connect to are on the same patch as you. Jedi Outcast 1.02 is a commonly-run patch version.
  16. Jedi Knight 3* (I can back this up with evidence) Also, the reason they didn't make it was due to them mostly focusing on Battlefront and mysteriously cutting all ties with Raven.

    Rend2 beta

    [mod=Moderation Notice]This thread has been moved to OpenJK discussion.[/mod]
  18. Most likely it's actually just the jQuery/jQuery UI plugin acting odd with IE11. A full update to IPB might not be necessary.
  19. +1 for nice pix
  20. No and no.
  21. Which would you prefer? The job, or the pay?

      As long as you are making some money, nothing else shouldn't matter. Sure my parents wouldn't like the idea, but I could easily live as a hermit somewhere with less than 1000 euros a month. As long as I have a TV and PC+internet to keep my sanity.

      I'd pick the job by FAR. It's a no-brainer. But then I don't have kids - if I were married with kids, my priorities would probably change.

      Well I come from quite a poor country, more than half of the population is unemployed probably. If someone's got a pay of 650€, it's deemed to be the lowest possible pay, whereas 850€ are already a LOT, let alone 1000€ and more. I'd go with whatever will keep me happy working, I sure as hell wouldn't pick something that would make me feel down.

  22. Just out of curiosity, are you the Baal who wrote a skinning tutorial?
  23. Let's keep it civil, folks.
