kamikaze and gindapoo thanks for the frags, that was an awsome game I had a blast.
I agree if more regs showed up, the server would fill fairly quick imho. If there is just one person on join in and have a crowbar war until more show up I've done this and it is FUN. Its also nice to get back to your roots once in a while.
Maybe we should have a scheduled avantiville night once a week. Post it in the fourms for the regs, PWG, TVB, BR, US, NJK and who ever else would like to join. I think this would be a blast. _________________

I voted "SACRILEGE!!!!" - LOL
It really doesn't bother me that much it does change, but Avanti is still my favorite map of all! I would play more if it weren't empy.
I am commiting to start going to TV1 regularly and hang out for a while to see if I can get a game started. Now I don't get to play that often, so don't expect to see me there at all hours. But when I can play I will try.  _________________

I had some great times on the old TV1 during and before June this year. Only once since then, during a week's holiday from university, have I been able to sit all night and have such a great avantiville session. I'll certainly be checking into TV1 during the coming holiday, and I hope a few others around here may do the same also. If this is the case, I'll love going out there and rolling back the months.
It'd be a shame to lose the all-Avanti setup that's been in place for most of the past many months. |

that would be a great idea, they are all avanti styled maps and like that you don't need to play the same map over and over again. Cause after a game or 3-4 it really starts to get annoying to do the same things over and over again. _________________ PROUD TO BE A MEMBER OF =US-V= & VILLE $UPPORTER |

There way's around your connection issues Apache like the network settings. They can be confusing so I'll explain,
Mit dem neuen Netzwerkcode muss man bei Half-Life seine Framerate nicht mehr begrenzen um vernünftig spielen zu können. Des weiteren gibt es auch noch jede Menge neue Tweak Möglichkeiten um die Verbindung zu verbessern.
rate xxxx - Rate legt fest wie viele Daten mit dem Server ausgetauscht werden. Folgende Werte sind zu Empfehlen.
56k Modem/1 Kanal ISDN 3600 bis 5300
2 Kanal ISDN 5000 bis 7000
Kabel Modem 5600 bis 10000
xDSL, T1+ 7500 bis 20000
LAN (10MBps or 100MBps) 20000
net_graph "x" - 3 Schaltet den Netzwerkmonitor ein, 0 wieder aus. Da die Framerate bei eingeschaltetem Netzwerkmonitor ins Bodenlose Sinkt solltest Du ihn lieber aus lassen
cl_allowdownload "x" - Bei 0 werden keine Dateien wie Decals oder Maps vom Server übertragen. 1 schaltet die Übertragung ein.
cl_allowupload "x" - Bei 0 werden keine Dateien zum Server hochgeladen, bie 1 schon.
cl_download_ingame "x" - Bei 1 werden auch währen eines Spiels Dateien vom Server heruntergeladen. Bei 0 passiert das nur in Spielpausen
cl_nodelta "x" - 0 schaltet Delta Kompression aus. Dies sollte immer auf 1 sein.
cl_nopred "x" - 1 schaltet Client Side Prediction aus. Sollte immer an sein.
cl_resend "x" - Diese Variable bestimmt wie oft ein Packet erneut gesendet wird wenn die Übertragung fehl schlägt. 1 oder 2 sind gute Werte.
cl_showmessages "x" - 0 schaltet das Anzeigen von Nachrichten im Spiel aus.
cl_updaterate "x" - Regelt wieviele Packete pro Sekunde zum Server gesendet werden. 20 ist gut für Modem Benutzer. Bei ISDN oder schneller kann man diesen Wert erhöhen.
mp_decals "x" - Soviele Decals werden maximal angezeigt. 300 ist der Standardwert.
mp_footsteps "x" - 1 schaltet Fußtritte ein, 0 aus.
cl_lw "x" - Bei 1 werden alle Waffen Animationen und Sounds vom Client gesteuert, bei 0 vom Server. Wenn sie vom Server gesteuert werden sitzen die Treffer genau dort wo der Server sie empfangen hat.
cl_lc "x" - Bei 1 berechnet der Server server-side lag compensation. Dass heisst das der Server deinen Ping beim bestimmen der Treffer mit einbezieht. Man muss also nicht mehr vorausziehlen. 0 schaltet dies aus.
cl_lb "x" - Bei 1 berechnet der client die Blutspritzer selbst. Man sieht also nicht genau ob der Server den Treffer auch gezählt hat oder nicht. Bei 0 übernimmt der Server dies und man sieht Blutspritzer nur wenn man auch wirklich trifft.
So now that you have the networking done it is time for the Grafik Tweaks,
cl_himodels "x" - Bei 1 werden aufwendigere Spielerfiguren verwendet, die die Geschwindigkeit vermindern
cl_showfps "x" - 1 schaltet die Anzeige der aktuellen Bilder pro Sekunde ein.
gl_clear "x" - 0 füllt kleine Spalten zwischen Texturen. 0 ist langsamer.
gl_cull "x" - Bei 1 werden nur sichtbare Objekte berechnet. Bei 0 wird alles berechnet. 1 ist schneller. Es gibt keinen Grund gl_cull auf 0 zu setzen.
gl_dither "x" - Bei 1 wird dithering eingeschaltet. Bei Grafikkarten die 32 Bit unterstützen kann man 0 wählen.
gl_keeptjunctions "x" - 1 verbessert die Darstellungsgenauigkeit auf Kosten von Geschwindigkeit.
gl_max_size "x" - Die maximale Größe von Texturen. Standard ist 256. GeForce o.Ä. Besitzer können es mal mit 512 versuchen.
gl_overbright "x" - 1 schaltet maximale Helligkeit ein.
gl_palette_tex "x" - 1 schaltet palletet Textures ein. Bei Grafikkarten die dies nicht unterstützen sollte man 0 wählen.
gl_picimp "x" - Werte von 0 - 4. 0 sieht am besten aus und ist am langsamsten.
gl_playermip "x" - Textur Qualität der Modells. 0 - 2, 0 ist am besten.
gl_smoothmodels "x" - Bei 1 sehen Spieler Models besser aus. 0 ist schneller.
gl_texsort "x" - 1 schaltet Multitexturing ein.
gl_texturemode "x" - Mögliche Werte sind: gl_nearest (schlechteste Qualität), gl_nearest_mipmap_nearest, gl_linear, gl_linear_mipmap_nearest (Voreinstellung) und gl_linear_mipmap_linear (beste Qualität)
gl_wateramp "x" - 1 schaltet Wellen im Wasser ein. 0 ist schneller.
gl_ztrick "x" - Bei 1 wird der Z-Buffer nicht gelehrt. Ist schneller, kann aber zu flickern führen.
r_decals "x" - Bestimmt die Anzahl an Decals im Singleplayer Spiel. Standard sind 4096
Well, that s about it bud. I hope it helped you......

I voted Yes,
I was there last night, all be it for a short while because I'm having lag problems. I don't think its the server, actually I know its not the server (before Danno, MErf and silver get on my case). however I have to wonder with all the extra mods its running now its not helping. The only reason I say this is because there was a time when TV1 was running with less on it and I had a reasonable ping for a dial-up connection.
As time has gone by, with all the updates that TFC has had, my ping time has greadually declined, its almost reached the stage where its impossible to play, its one of the reasons that you will rarely see me on line right now..
A new graphics card, faster CPU, bit of extra ram and cable connection are the only ways that my ping times will improve now.

I think there should be some custom maps to join Avanti in the rotation. Maybe a few days a week it would be all avanti though.
PS-(Add Turkeyburgers and Gotham )
Or whatever, i like the Avanti-Palermo (that's a great map )-Osaka (Zen Garden, w00t) rotation |

Awww Crap.... I knew it was big mistake dropping German in School..
Thanks SpeCies,
I recognize some of the settings, there a few I don't remember from my config file though... In fact I know for a fact that some of those settings are NOT in it
Should be an interesting experiment, playing with these, anyone heard of config_back_up_first before ????

Ville 1 has always been Avanti and should stay that way. In my minds eye the problem might be marketing... what I do know is that Ville 1 always used to pack them in and is quite able to do it again.

TV1 & TV3 used to be the only servers that my connection seemed too like until something changed. What I don't know? What I do know is that on TV1 is it's alway's dead or full of people I don't know. TV3, the connection to it is good until the population on it increases and then my ping goes ballistic making it useless for me even to play Why could'nt the Uni-Bomber get Sprints Backbone and Infostructure before he went on his damn vacation
