Thanks Pileyrei, I've never developed an affinity for Deck, but it sounds like fun. Good job on getting ACE working too!

It was serious pain with gameservers.com
In the end Medor sorted it for me :tu:

We aiming for Deck but perhaps the DM/CTF server as well if people get bored of Deck.

Cheers

You should try cycling different versions of the map. So it really would be a "Deck night".
Count me in.

Funnily enough I've been thinking about that!
I need to go through the massive selection of Decks that was shared here and either create a small mapvote of cycle the best.

Might be an idea and thanks for the reminder.

Great that you can pop in :tu: :tu:

I will try to get in as well. Don't mind my poor normal weapons skills though, been playing way too much instagib lately and not that well at that. :lol2:

Next time, please post the time in UTC or GMT or another standard reference.
Having that said, I assume you meant that it will start at 8PM UTC, right?

Yes I agree about the time zone.
Its 8pm GMT (Although I see GMT is now UTC!)

I'm sure you will play better than me!

@papercoffee - coming tomorrow?

If this goes well I will look in to cycle different Deck versions :)

From what you said earlier, I think you mean 8pm BST which is 7pm GMT/UTC and 9pm CEST.

I think you are right!
I'm confused with time zone names :oops:

I'm in the UK. My laptop says I'm in UTC +00:00.

So its 8pm UK time (BST?? UTC??) and 9pm to other European countries that are an hour ahead.

I hope that clarifies it :)

Thanks for the help! :tu:

Can we use the 24 hours clock? When will it be now tomorrow 21:00 or 9:00 o'clock?
A nice server you have there Pileyrei. :tu:
But you need Food Fight on it... or else I'm just cannon-fodder :ironic:


I played too much FF in the last time. I'm not used to play with normal weapons lol.

I'd be down. Though you'd have to make sure ACE doesn't kick me for having the new renders. Sound and graphics.

Also I hope it's not too late at night. EST for me.

20:00 UTC tonight - Thursday 24 August!
So that's 21:00 in Germany for example.

When I had access to MPUK's 34 UT servers we had a food fight server :)
But I will look to rotate deck versions and include one with FF weapons :tu:

Hi silver sound

Its the latest version of ACE so hopefully all will be fine?
If you can send me the u and other package names I can add them to safe list in my ini.

Looking forward to some frags tonight all - thank you for showing interest in this :)

Isn't this bothersome for the player? To download a whole 30MB mod for just one map?
Oh ...you had a FF server running? why didn't you contact me? I could have promote it everywhere.
