New rotation coming up soon. We will test some maps during the weekend. At suprise noticed some old maps wont work for some reason, so already written new rotation needs to be redone with few new maps and some might be from here.

 

@HipKat since you have runned server before, you should then know that there cant be thrown stuff just like that without testing. Here I now ran into issues already with 2 maps I was about to run from your list and would've caused the server to crash. Also since you are supposed to be an adult, please try to act like one and have some patient.

I have to request this map once again, I don't care this map is too big or something else. (Jay3 run 0, 44,)  Also since ET added on steam. Jay2 may have more new player join this server when Jay1 server full.

 

better add this River Port to replace Alcatraz 

I didn't know it was on Steam, that could explain the rush of new players

If I had a test server, I would. We had one that El was generous to let us use for a bit. But I don't have a way to test them, just suggest them. As for your second comment, I have no idea what you're talking about. But you know what? Stop it! I'm getting a little weary of making 100 positive comments that get ignored but getting treated like I'm the only one who ever makes a negative comment the one freaking time I do.

 

Wait, you're talking about a comment I made 3 1/2 WEEKS ago?? Asking where the maps I suggested were?? THAT'S what you're going on about???

You can test on your local machine pretty well by running etded or etlded as a dedicated server with omnibots and then connecting a separate local client. If for some reason that doesn't work for you on a particular map or unusual situation I can try stuff out for you my testing server.

 

You also can get pretty good non-dedicated VPS hosting for about $4 a month if you want your own. Send me a message if you need more info.

TBH, I've thought about adding a test server, just to have access to on my own to play with different maps and reaquaint myself with server settings, etc, but haven't had time to set it up.

 

@RendeL Sorry for the remark, I just had an argument with my 14 yr old and was a little amped up still when I read your post.

FA has  a test server we can turn on when we need to, el! used that he didnt have his own. when we went over all the map txt files we merge em together so everyone had sum maps not put on not just u hipkat. we decided this would be the best approach.that way no ones left out.

 

we all went thru what  300 maps to get where we are at now. that is time consuming.

 

we worked on this stuff or did anyhow alot.  kinda discerning when u put in the effort for the good of the server and u just get bitched at ... no one ever says wow good job thanks just oh i hate this or  u didnt do this right.. it really gets old after a while.

 

one thing u learn real quick is unless your working on it .. u ant got a clue whats going on. an  u will never make everyone happy all the time..

 

we have progress now . thats good. !!!! i appreciate all who help! i dont appreciate negative comments ...if it was easy everyone would do it.

 

hipkat when i went thru map files .. i made sure i put some of your maps u suggested on.

 

now rendel and nicotine are ones to talk to .there the ones putting in the time now.!!!!

That's totally not true. I've seen people give positive remarks on some of the maps, and rotations and I certainly have, 

 

Regardless, with the number of new and returning players coming from Steam, I assume, Jay 2 is what it was when I came to it 2 years ago, finally. Competitive and objective-driven. Losing maps that are voted off now is more important than ever to keep these guys and attract more.

Have you ever run Sabre Peak? That was a fun map.

It's one of may favorites. It might be too big for Jay 2, as it sits now, but as more people are coming back and the server has had more periods of being full, it might be a nice on to try. Certainly would be better than Alcatraz

Saberpeak is the worst map, I suggest add Tramfight Beta2 instead

Every map can have good or bad feedback. That's why weekly rotation. Server can't have just your favorite maps OR else how to accommodate everyone's fav. map. 

 

Sometimes you adjust and sometimes, others will for your fav. map. Thanks

 this map has never been a good one for jay2 . we have tried many times to get the players to like it .   i like it also but it doesnt fair well on jay2. but at sum point im sure it will be back. we can try again!!!

[captnconcrete]

quick question why is alcatraz still in rotation.  that map kills it for most when on.if u would like i can find a map to replace it with... plz can we get this map removed.pretty plz!!!!!!

[-=HipKat=-]

There's an ETL Map on Silent, I can't remember which map it is (Maybe Frostbite??) but it's beautiful and would be great on Jay 2
