ATTN: KF 2 Server Hosts

[Kno]

I set up the custom maps on gameservers.net redirect server and will be keeping it updated with new maps and new versions of existing maps. To add the redirect to your server just open up your servers .ini and make sure these lines match.

[IpDrv.HTTPDownload]
RedirectToURL=http://uz2.gameservers.net/ut2004/
ProxyServerHost=
ProxyServerPort=3128
UseCompression=True

[IpDrv.TcpNetDriver]
AllowDownloads=False
MaxDownloadSize=0
DownloadManagers=IpDrv.HTTPDownload
DownloadManagers=Engine.ChannelDownload

Change "AllowDownloads=False" to "AllowDownloads=True" once you have tested the redirect yourself

Here is a list of the maps currently on the redirect,

• KF-Swamp
  
• KF-Wasteyard
  
• KF-ThamesBridge (a.k.a. ThamesBridge B2B)
  
• KF-City
  
• KF-CityWide (old vers.)
  
• KF-CityWide 2 (new vers.)
  
• KF-Outdoor (a.k.a. Outdoor Pursuit)
  
• KF-La_Casa_Muerta
  
• KF-Grudge
  
• KF-Train
  
• KF-Tao
  
• KF-Mall
  
• KF-Colosseum
  
• KF-DownTown
  
• KF-School 1.1
  
• KF-Desert
  
• KF-Winchester
  

If anyone needs help setting the redirect up on their server or if you want any other map added just ask me and I'll be glad to lend a hand\upload it for you.

Good job. I was waiting for something like this to happen.

[BIGJohnMP]

Your missing KF-Mall and KF-Colloseum (that's how its spelled, don't ask me why).
Good job though, I'll add this to my server's .ini
HEY MODERATORS! STICKY DIS SHIT!

[Kno]

Yeah I know about Mall and Colosseum not being there yet (i don't have them running on my server). If you'd like BigJ, I'll upload them tomorrow when i update CityWide.


Zynth, sorry to hear about Turmoil Saga going down. On the other hand, love the work on the dedicated server page you did for the wiki. Beat me to it, thank you, would of taken me forever and a week to write that out and make it look half as nice as you did. If you'd like any help with it, feel free to pick my brain. Oh yeah, quick side note: good luck with your move. They can be a bitch.

[kf2cool]

is your outdoor pursuit map 1.2 version or 1.1?

mine is 1.2 version but name it as KF-Outdoor_Pursuit as told by the map creator.

[BIGJohnMP]

Yeah, I think you may be using a bit of an older version Kno. The one that I played before had blinking lights placed on the mines, but the one that you uploaded doesn't seem to.
And kf2cool, you should probably just rename it to KF-Outdoor as that is what most everyone is doing.

[kf2cool]

I thought Kalkus the map creator mention in thread that name it as KF-Outdoor_Pursuit?

Yes Kno should use the new version inside redirect.

[Kno]

kf2 and BigJ, the version thats is on the redirect is 1.2. I renamed it to KF-Outdoor because of the unreal naming conventions bug. This bug showed up even when i renamed the map to Outdoor_Pursuit. Basically what happens is when someone joined a server they would be renamed to "Fresh_Meat" or "Player" and fall back to the default skin for UT2K4. Now from what i remember, Kalkus said he was going to name the next released version KF-Outdoor_Pursuit, that i assume will be vers. 1.3. Oh yeah, the blinking lights don't show up on client machines due to a replication issue

[BIGJohnMP]

I see...
Hey Kno! Don't forget to add KF-Downtown to the redirect server!
Thanks! You doing a great service sir!

[Kno]

bump

Added KF-desert. It'll be on my server sometime tomorrow, hopefully

[BIGJohnMP]

This thread should be moved to the "Mapping" section...

[zynthetic]

Mapping is related to server administration?

[BIGJohnMP]

No, but this thread is for the map redirect.

[zynthetic]

Exactely. Which means it has nothing to do with asset creation of any sort.

[update]
