  1. For anyone who might wonder if this mod will be finished someday, I'm afraid I have some bad news.

    I completely forgot how Dedit works, and from what I remember, I pretty much messed up the whole level 4 with some crazy idea that I had.

     

    Thanks to everyone who played it and all the comments on it :)

  2. Forget about that. It was pegasus-maps.rez i had to x-rez. lol

    I have it.

     

    Have a good time.

     

    Peel

     

    I'm happy that you figured it out, I do have a pegasus resource installer somewhere as well

    Working on sorting all the files that I have backed up from the old computer, to get the download section back up

     

    Just been busy..

  3. @Spawn : Interesting. Thought you wouldn´t exist any longer Spawn lol. Where is your homepage? Thanks for "reinstallation" and comments. Visit me in Örebro for a Dedit session lol.

     

    I'm lurking around still..

     

    Not as frequently as before, but it happens. Homepage is actually there, it just lacks the domain. I was thinking about getting that fixed but haven gotten to that part yet..

  4. Of various reasons, we've made new mappack in rezformat, this one also comes with an installer/uninstaller.

     

    But without a updater function. This system is on hold for now.

     

    And since the mappack as it is now requires a own nolf2srv to run, this will make problems for Dan's anticheatfix since his version of nolf2srv.exe relies on rezfiles to work, this is a better sollution.

     

    Back to the good old fachion mappacks!

     

    Please uninstall the previous version of the mappack for now and check this one out instead.. Its a fully updated rezfile containing all known maps up to this date :)

     

    The installer will automatically find your custom/resources folder but there's also an option to choose a custom installpath.

     

    same url as before:

     

    Download here

     

    content:

     

    - Maps

    - readme file

  5. Checked out the mod, it uses Dan's new nolf2srv.exe so that means we have to do something to the last mappack to adjust it to the anticheat fix.. gonna have a update ready by tomorrow. I'll put the whole thing back into rezformat so that it can be hosted on his server :)

     

    We didn't really count on that we needed a own dedicated server for this mappack :whistle:

  6. A FYI it created the mappack and updater folders plus it populated the root folder (In a non-standard install path) with all the individual files too (so I had to clean it up a bit afterwards).

     

    I noticed your nolf2srv doesn't log either :(

     

    On a plus note the server is running the maps from the mappack folder now so everyone go give it a try :happy1:

     

    What exactly happened? by root folder you mean?

     

    and when it comes to clubdead.. it made the server dead again.. Guess removing it from the mapcycle is the best thing to do :whistle:

    There's obviously a double resource somewhere. Perhaps i should just rename the whole map to something else

  7. lol! hope this does the trick then :)

     

    The new nolf2.srv works exactly the same way as the old one, except that i also loads the mappack folder.

    I think that you can use the old one too, and just add -rez mappack to the commandline but I won't guarantee that it works

     

    Now I just need you to setup the ability for servers to give files to the clients (a file download basically) :whistle:

     

    Yeah.. let's talk about that in a few years, when I finally figured out how to do that :rolleyes:

  8. There's a new version of the mappackinstaller that is uploading at this moment.. This will take about 2 hours to complete. this release will include a new dedicated server and a possibility to choose a custom installdir during install.

     

    For the ones that has already downloaded the mappack, check for updates to get the new dedicated server :rolleyes:

  9. An update for Spawn and Ura

     

    The mappack folder isn't being recognized by my dedicated servers (they don't know to look in there for the custom maps)

    As a workaround I updated the mappack I made last week so people can at least play the new maps.

     

    Yes, the nolf2srv.exe will also seak out the rezfiles, and it skips the mappack folder.

    A update is added to solve this problem for those who already downloaded the mappack :whistle:

     

    This will be added in a new version of the installer, along with a custom installfolder selection.

  10. The installer is looking for the "installdir" key in the Nolf2 registrykey. then alternate c:\programfiles\fox\no one lives forever 2\.. but if it doesn't find nolf2 in the end of the line, it shuts down.. A way to fool this is to actually put a nolf2.exe at the default location.. or just fix the registry key.

     

    By making a new .txt document and fill in:

     

    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

     

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Monolith Productions\No One Lives Forever 2]

     

    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Monolith Productions\No One Lives Forever 2\1.0]

     

    "InstallDir"="D:\\nolf2"

     

    or

     

    "InstallDir"="E:\\some folder\\nolf2"

     

    that will indicate that nolf2 is installed in D:\Nolf2 or in E:\some folder\nolf2

     

    Then save it as a .reg file.. and doubleclick it to add it to the registry

     

     

    But you're uploading via ftp maybe? and running the server from commands as well? then you cannot run the launcher and the updater i guess.. So I think a ordinary zipped rez updater or something could be made as well, or you could install it on your computer first and then upload the mappack folder from the nolf2 directory to the server and add -rez mappack in the commandline.

  11. Ok, it should be ready to use now,

     

    Ura & Spawn's .. ... Mappack :happy1:

     

    This is a Custom mappack and it could be the last big mappack you'd ever have to download.

    This package comes with a new launcher and a updater. So when you click 'check for updates' in the

    launcher it will start a updater that goes online to check for new maps and will download/install what you don't have.

    This mappack doesn't use the custom/resources folder, but you can still add rezfiles manually to that folder

     

     

    The mappack comes with a installer, so all you need to do is to download and install it just like any other program.

    This also means that it will uninstall like any other program, if you choose to uninstall it, then all updates is uninstalled along with it.

     

    Download here
