I added a link to translate this page to french for all our canadian members who would prefer a french version. (At the top by the admin's names) It screws up some of the text, changing the order when it shouldn't (especially the member list) because it's automatically translated, but i'm sure you can deal with that ;)

Happy New Year!
...and to start the year off right:
Fixed Server Crashing/Other Issues
Removed Bot End for Compatibility Issues
Removed Bot Auto Slay for Compatibility Issues
Fixed server issues and updated all the main mods to their latest versions. Took a couple of hours after I got back, but the server seems to run smoothly now =). Had to update Mani, ES, and EST.
For all those wanting to purchase admin, now would be a good time if you have been waiting!

Added Admin Subscription Services
Well, after a lot of hard work and free time due to the holidays, I was able to get admin subscription up. Hope you enjoy them! All funds go towards the new paid server to come.

Added 10 New GunGame Win Sounds
Alright, stayed up all night for this update. Took me 5 full hours to finish implementing the new endgame sounds and making sure the code didn't crash at all. Pretty sure the game won't crash with the new code, but I made a backup just in case. For those of you who the sounds wouldn't work for, most of the old problems have been fixed now that I have a better understanding of the structure of the downloads.txt file. All in all, I hope you enjoy it and voice your opinion of the sounds on the forums!!

Took longer than usual and a lot of effort on my part, but I have managed to finally get the server to stop crashing entirely (it was due to Mani). And since it's purring again, I have been concentrating on making the server mods run together more effectively. I have not been able to turn off NoBlock for knife rounds due to the one-round wait it requires (Source requirement), so mostly I will have to try for a noblock though teammates only script which isn't going to be easy. Finally, I also tried editing the StabSpawn code to fix the person after knife round spawning after the round is technically over. However, this cause crashes and wasted my total of about 8 hours of time trying to make these scripts work. Well, at least the server doesn't crash anymore....

Sry, Steam Updates totally F*CKED the server again...

Server Crashed
Sure, i get grounded and as soon as i can check on the server again i see it's been down for 3 days? WTF!
No it's been up, HLSW must be reporting wrong values for you. Trust me it's been up! -DeusEx
[11/21] by DeusEx
Fixed Server Crashing
Well, I managed to figured out that the server crashed everytime a person was being votebanned. Updated Mani and GunGame again and that has fixed the problem. Visit the forums for new Scrimming times!
[11/21] by idConstruct
Server Crashed
Ok, it's obviously a recurring problem. But this last time I ran the server differently and the error showed something about a memory reference error... I have an idea on how to prevent these in the future...maybe. Otherwise it may be possible that a server cleanup will have to be done.
It was down since 9pm last night i hate to say, and so according to records these last three times it crashed, it did so with a full player-load.... :(
Fear not though, we will resolve this one way or another.
[11/20] by idConstruct
Server Crashed (down 20 mins)
Sry, server farted
[Edit] Damn, must've Crashed Again soon after restarting (down 40 mins)
[11/18] by DeusEx
Server Down for 10 hours!
Well, since I was away and nobody said anything about it, the server was down for 10 hours starting on the 17th and crossing over into the wee hours of the morning. Anyway, if anyone notices that the server is down, please by all means send an email to 1337.css@gmail.com so we can get on to fixing it asap. Also, the Last Man Knifing Mod now cannot force people to knife who have cl_restrict_server_commands set to 1. However, all is not lost:
Fixed GunGame Weapon Problem from Steam Update
Updated EventScripts to Version 1.3 beta 6
Updated GunGame to Version 3.3b
Added DeathMatch Capability
[11/16] by DeusEx
Steam updates disable GunGame!
Yes, I went on the server and noticed that gungame wasn't working nor was Mani for some reason. Plus, steam had just released another update, so right away I knew the cause. Looks like the update affects a users config and specifically the cl_restrict_server_commands value which defaults to 1 and restricts Mani & GunGame from working. So I soon found a fix, but each client has to do it, and it can not be done via server-side. If you have any questions ask in-game or in the forums.
The FIX is to:
1) Open up console via the ~ key
2) Type "cl_restrict_server_commands 0"
3) Hit enter and presto! Gungame & Mani will work!

Added two new videos to the movie section.
"Pastry Back", a parody of Sexy Back from the weebl & bob ppl, and "PS3 vs Wii", a clip from the vaults of G4 network. For those who have never had the privilege of premium cable, its the sh*t. Basically everything you'd ever want in a TV network (Girls, cars, games, girls, and games). And unfortunately the six month promotion for premium cable ended... :( so now I'm stuck with Comedy Central again...
[11/11] by DeusEx, idConstruct
Lots of Stuff Added & Reworked!:
Modified Server Config Files
Added KnifeSyphon Mod
Added StabSpawn! Mod
Added Ace Ventura Mod
Added Most Active Mod
Added ES Tools Mod
Added Bot End Mod
Added Logo CMD Mod
Added Headshot Counter
Added Ich Elimination Script
Changed HE Grenade Damage
Changed The Points System Slightly
Added Ability to Drop Undroppable Items
Added Knifing, Grenade, and Deagle Only Scripts
As you can see, alot of stuff has been added and reworked for an extremely sweet gameplay in our opinions! If you don't like something be sure to post in our forums about it. Also, there is some talk about a paid server possibility within the next year here at the forums.
The most noticeable mods are those that affect knifing. You now get 50hp when you knife somebody (allowing you to take on more ppl with your knife). And when you humiliate someone, the server will randomly respawn any dead player on your team. This is all part of our effort to encourage knifing on our server.
A couple weapon modifications were added including raising the damage of he grenades (not too much, but enough to make a difference), and the ability to drop grenades and knives. (Now you can give back that nade you stole :p )
We added a few mods that won't be running constantly, but are available for admins to use (so ask about them if you want them). One is the elimination mod, .... I forget exactly what this does, but DeusEx can delete this sentence and explain it ltr... I remember it was cool tho. And a pretty useful one is the new ability to enforce knife/nade/deagle only rounds... (can be modified to use any weapon) We added commands to turn gungame on and off at will also.

Server Back Up
Not sure what happened, but I restarted the server. There shouldn't have been this issue at all so I am going to review what happened with idConstruct and see what's up. For everyone to know, if the main OS ever crashes the server will reboot and since the server is run as a system process, it will be restarted automatically; however, in this case, it looks like the OS never crashed just the game, so it should have been easiest to just press the restart button...
[11/06] by idConstruct
Sh*t - SERVER CRASHED
...at 2:00am this morning
idk whats wrong so it may be down until this afternoon
[11/05] by DeusEx
Added KnifeSyphon Mod
Updated HE Grenade Damage
Added EventScripts Tools
Added the KnifeSyphon mod to further encourage knifing on the server. Updated the HE Grenade damage to a full 100 to easen the difficulty of the nade level. Added EventScripts tools to further open up the options for per-player and per-weapon modification abilities.
[10/30] by idConstruct
Removed FiveSeven
Updated Weapon List page
Fixed Ranking System
Added 3 maps for testing
Right, the fiveseven is a peice of crap so its gone. The ranking system was a peice of crap so its been fixed. And in the meantime I added 3 maps... two of which are possible candidates for the map rotation. More info on those maps here.
[10/17] by idConstruct
Added TurboLeveling
I'm actually a little late in posting this since it was done a couple days ago...
Mani is now completely up to date, and quake sounds have been fixed ;) TurboLeveling is now running too. If you hate or love turboleveling, you can comment about it in the forums or drop us an email.
The ranking system has been changed in order to make the game more fair to everyone. Here's a short list of changes:
- Ranks are now based on points
- You get points for your kill based on the skill of both you and your victim
- Weapons are weighted (You get more points for a knife kill than using the ak47)
- After about a week of absence from the server points will slowly 'decay'
- If your points decay, just play on the server again and your points will be fully restored
[10/13] by DeusEx
Server Update Started!
Ahead of schedule might I add also... ;-)
[10/9] by idConstruct
Check out the 'beta' version of our forum here!
Added Forum
[10/8] by DeusEx
For all those still wondering, yes I am alive! School and work has been taking up most my time these past few weeks, but I have great news to our loyal members. As id hinted from the last post, on the 14th (this Saturday), I will be completely updating the server and all its mods to the latest versions.
Hopefully, I will be able to use most of the old files as templates for reconstructing the new server, but it's unlikely. Updating should definitely be done by 4 pm Central Time so come and check it out!
And to reiterate what id said, upcoming projects for the clan include a HLStatsX ranking system and user forums. See you all this Saturday!
[10/4] by idConstruct
We've been working on a number of little things the past few weeks... here's a short update:
Reconfigured MANI
Added Quake Sounds (finally) =)
Mani has been releasing a ton of updates, so after the CS:S update this weekend, if all goes well, we'll be updating all our mods to the latest versions.
HLStatsX will hopefully be installed on our server within the next month or two also.
We've added a 'scrimshots' page where we will be posting screenshots of our scrims whenever they occur. If you have some you'd like posted feel free to email us. When we have had a few scrims we'll probably end up just making a page dedicated to scrims.
And finally: In order to make feedback easier, we'll eventually add forums to the site...
ltr :p

SERVER UP
After working all night, and reformatting the server (consequently updating it too ;), the server is back in business and we don't expect any more problems with it. [YAY! -DeusEx]
Due to the new installation though, the IP has changed to 69.81.254.119
We are also updating the maplist this weekend, so if anyone has any suggestions then pass them along to 1337.css@gmail.com.
[9/14] by idConstruct
SERVER CRASHED
Yeah, it crashed. Everyone's in school so nobody can fix it at the moment (12:45pm)
Our apologies for the inconvenience
[8/27] by DeusEx
Good news! I figured out the problem with the server crashing, which was a few maps not loading correctly (dust pcg + glass crusher), so they have been removed. There should no longer be any crashes and we can keep the server going as long as possible now! However, stability, no matter if the latter was fixed, is still an issue, so if anything out of the ordinary occurs, I am asking that you drop us a line asap. Thanks!
[8/26] by DeusEx
SERVER BACK UP!
Downloaded the new gametypes.txt from Mani and that has seemed to stop most of the problems that were occurring. However, server does seem to be unstable as it did crash (unknown cause), but in my testing, it seems to be working fine. Mani's site is currently down, so we will have to chance the stability issue for the moment. Goodluck out there!
