  1. CW: Ping! Playtest Over!
    The playtest has formally ended!

    Thank you all who showed up, the event was a blast and we had tons of fun!


    In addition to it being fun, we also got some great quality reports and data on some bugs we discovered in our playtest. Here is the current known issues:

    - My screen is too bright or strange looking upon first launch!
    Press Shift + ESC and a console will drop down, then enter "brightness 0;gamma 1" to fix this. HL's config will sometimes interfere and cause mayham, will address in a hotfix.

    - Disappearing/weird weapons
    When switching PVS (rooms), this issue occurs. We are simply going to have to optimize our networking code more. We'll let know as we tackle this one.

    - Grenade Launcher and Tesla don't deal damage!
    A simple last minute typo! Will be addressed in a hotfix.

    - No Music or Video
    We'll have to ship a new binary soon to fix this and a cert bug

    - Harpoon Grapple Issues
    The alt fire on the Harpoon is a bit finicky, it too will be addressed.

    - HUD Elements
    We have a few more touches to add to the HUD, we just ran out of time!

    And we'll post more as we update and fix things. For now follow us on our socials and see you again soon!

  6. I’ve just set up a classic #Quake1 #QuakeWorld deathmatch server on #FreeBSD at q1.hacktheplanet.be:27500 Come join if you want a fragging nostalgia hit so it’s not just me with a bunch of bots! You can use #ezquake (ezquake.com/).

  7. Even though I’ve only gotten (re)acquainted with #FreeBSD in the last few months and only have two servers up and running for #email, #minecraft and #quake1 #quakeworld I have just filled out the #FreeBSD 2025 Community Survey (surveymonkey.com/r/freebsdsurv). If you use #FreeBSD in any capacity, take 10 minutes to do so too!

  8. Current state :neofox_comfy_sip:
    > QuakeWorld
    > FFA
    > 7 players
    > I'm 0 skill :P
    > 26 frags
    > 27 kills
    > 54 death

  10. Bon, alors première chose: BONNE ANNEE 2024 ! Que cette année vous apporte plein de bonheur et tout et tout ❤

    J'en profite pour passer un message pour les joueurs de #QuakeWorld : ServeMiscord, le proxy que j'avais crée pour recevoir les messages entre QW et Discord est enfin de retour, dans une forme un peu brute (suite à un changement total de protocole et d'infra), mais ses fonctions de base fonctionnent nickel :)

    Voila, c'est tout. BISOUUUS !

  11. I spent yesterday writing a proof-of-concept “cheat” “detection” “mechanism”.

    It’s basically collecting input packet deltas over time (which degrade), tracing against line-of-sight players only when shooting and evaluating accuracy. It’s testing the results against some really-high-up-there values I’ve collected from actual pro-player matches and of course the cheater from last week. It seems to work okay and the only false positives come from people using teleporters which mess with the camera angle deltas occasionally (which can be fixed)

    At the very least, the mechanism will let the admin know that something unusual is going on, it does detect really obvious cases immediately (and we should probably tally those up and just automatically call dropclient() on them if it happens too much within a short period of time to deal with spinbots)

    I don’t think that such a system should punish by itself, but perhaps the “sus-tally” can be transparent to other players so they can make an educated decision. The system could also be tweaked as to detect high-skill players and to apply handicaps to them. That way “server cleaners” have more of a challenge and everyone else keeps having fun.

    What do you all think? Or am I opening Pandora’s Box with this?
