We did provide info on how to make your own launchers (viewtopic.php?f=55&t=72857&p=124535&hilit=json#p124535) and someone already did: viewtopic.php?f=13&t=72947&hilit=launcher About the old launcher: since when does it not work for you ?

I programmed the old launcher in java. People in the team told me that that was unacceptable cause it is not the native windows language and cause it didnt look good enough or something. Thats why the old launcher was abandoned.

I see you are having fun concluding whatever out of what I posted. Good for you. Getting me popcorn to watch what you will conclude next

Why are you still playing a dead game then ? And no, i can tell you for a fact that the dev team does not give a fuck if this game attracts a lot of players or not. For the most part we rather not have all the cry babies. The more players the more insults etc are posted in the forums. Its just not worth it dealing with a large crowd for free. Thats one of the reason why the game might never come back on its feet again. To awnser your question more directly: The movement is supposed to be fast like in the classic. If you dont like it then this game isent for you. And again: no we dont care about beating a call of duty or something in playernumbers. Just leave us alone if you think the movement isent for you. Thank you.

If you want Planetside 2 type of battles then why not play Planetside 2 ? I would rather shoot myself in the head then to play > 60 player matches on renegade sized maps. 16vs16 or 8vs8 is the sweetspot for me.

Bangladesh in the house!

Will you guys pls stop the language nonsense ? That stuff doesent belong here. Thank you!

If you were having problems with the demos then pls contact us about it. I could tell you whats wrong with them if you would give me the chance to take a look at them. Most likely they dont load for you because you are running mutators on your server. If you do then you also need this mutators installed on the clients where you are trying to play the demo. Im sure that this is why the demos dont load for you. You can send me demos to rypel@gmx.de to confirm that. And you are asked to send us suspicious demos so that we can analyze them to add according fixes for hacks and exploits to the game. This is important to improve the game. I understand that people want to make their own eco system of moderators and admins and own ban lists. This is ok if there are lots of servers but in the current situations we need servers with admins that are willing to cooperate with the devs to get the critical fixes into the game. If people continue to issue demorecordings on your server but you refuse to send them to us this is unexceptabel. For demos you could make posts in the player reports section or send them to me directly at rypel@gmx.de. Im sure that they are not broke and that its the mutator problem that i would make another post about once i could confirm that.

I made that topic about demo recording and i implemented a global ban list. But so far nobody has ever reported any hackers since then so with no reports we cant ban people (as most devs like me dont play the game anyway we dont know if there are hackers). Either there are no hackers anymore or nobody fking cares to help us getting them banned. This is one reason among teamintern and personal reasons, why i stepped down as lead programmer and are not actively contributing to the project anymore at this moment. It is often far too frustrating with no compensation (and not even a steam release) in sight.

They apologized, so no need to trade blows anymore. I'm not near my pc till tuesday so thats when i'll remove the current ip ban.

They probably hosted under a different IP now. So when i get back home i will ban this new IP aswell as name ban them. They have our attention now so i dont know what they think they will accomplish with this.

Calm yourself Jake.

Seems like they did it again today and the server logs support that. As a result their server got banned from the server list. Since faking player numbers is unfair against other server owners we cant allow that. If they contact us and promise to not do it again their server will get unbanned.

Not home this we. Will take a look next week.

Yes and Yes. That is what i tried to get across with my post. So far people didnt get us any recording though. If you record something pls help us out and ask the server admin about it yourself like mentioned in my post "Get in touch with the serverowner or an admin and ask them to send us the recording ".

We could keep an eye on serverlogs to verify this. A server can get banned for that so pls dont do it.

This has long be done. There are no beta1 servers anymore. If you host a beta1 server it wont show in e serverlists.

Because you didnt post your correct ports. You didnt post a port so i used the default 7777 one. But you seem to use other ports on your servers that you didnt post so your server pages are not shown.

New sites have been added.

Except that the (release version!) of BF4 did crash on map load all the time. But this goes to show that people have a very short memory.

can you provide the serverlog about that crash ?

Hey Vegas, nice to see you here and thx for your input. We collect all the info and try to put the puzzlepieces together. About clientside demos: Yeah unfortunatly clientside demos give errors and are not supported by UDK anymore since about 2 years. Thats why we are limited to serverside demos.

I think omega79 is totslly corrct. Vehicles that you got from crates will most likely substract from the vehicle count when destroyed (but wont be added to it when they spawn). So this is probably one reason for negative numbers.

Yes we dont know how to reproduce the crashes and that they probably happen more on pupulated servers and not on our testservers with few testers makes it even more difficult for us. So if you spot similarities in your crashes, like you described, that is valuable info for us. Im not sure if it could have something todo with spawning of players but it could be possible. Might also help if some people could Record their crashes (with fraps for example everytime on mapswitch) so then we could analyze and compare in the recorded video footage when exactly the crash happened, what was rendered before that on the minimap, how the vote looked etc. I will also start to Fraps my crashes in hopes to find some hints and similarities in the recorded footage.

The logs dont show any useful info about the crashes. There is no proper errormessage in them. The game just crashes without writing into the log what caused it. That is our problem.
