I was wondering if there was an auto-balance feature in DoD:S or in the admin plug-in. I think it's mani-mod that has an auto-balance feature on CS. If there is one please enable to prevent things like this ( http://www.tvr-guild.org/~rancor/dod_avalanche0006.jpg ) from happening. Kind of takes away from the fun.

Auto balancing only makes sure the teams are at even strength. It doesn't take in account skill wise. By the looks of it the 2 on the bottom of the allies just joined. I could be wrong, but when TV3 was Source server I looked through all the pluggins and didn't see anything that takes skill into the equation.

The CS autobalance will even the teams up by K. Maybe they haven't implemented that into a DoD plugin yet.

Autobalance doesn't work whatsoever. Sometimes it takes those who are skilled, and put them in the other team thats stacked. Honestly theres nothing any of the plug-ins are useful for except for stats. Auto-balance, auto anything is garbage. Thats just experience though from other servers. People will still complain about auto-balance

We did ask if you wanted one of us to come allies - sometimes its hard to switch when someone doesnt leave allies. At one point it was Allies 7 Axis 5 - sorry you were on the recieving end that run.

I think mine saves them as *.tga files and I just open them in photoshop and *save as* *.jpg - I think there is a way to make your defaults save as jpegs but I can't remember where I read it.

They can easily do that based on scores. Computers tend to be good with numbers so it shouldn't be too hard.

I tried to switch, but at one point allies had two more players,but with me Justice batmanx, and maschine that is a pretty deadly haxis combo. Sorry rancor it was truly brutal. After they won before I even fired a shot I tried to switch. Bender is usually my auto-balancer or cmon, but haven't caught either of them lately.
