    Lithium just recently got the updated version of all old maps.

    well a couple of the ones on JB at least; i'll try and finish the fixed version of ba_jail_lotus in a couple days.


  3. Giveaways plugin crashed the servers, and since I don't think the skin donation bot is up anymore there aren't any skins to give away.

    I try to do giveaways on JB in the form of bounties pretty often whenever there are a decent amount of players on, but we could probably do manual giveaways as well on minigames (or trivia for credits, like we used to do occasionally).

    Anyways, the best way to populate is just to join the servers and to invite your friends. Check the #csgo channel on discord, @Dannypicacho or I post in there sometimes if there's people on and we're trying to get more. I can probably do an operation populate or two on the steam group too sometime this week (but people usually ignore those)


  4. There's a number of cvars you can change for the bhop plugin that's on there now listed here. For auto-hop theres fc_bhop_lazymode, and I'm not totally sure what sort of stuttering you're talking about but fc_bhop_maxdelay looks like it's probably related to the issue you're talking about


  5. On the topic of adding or removing maps from servers, I made a plugin for the CSGO servers to help figure out which maps are most popular on the server, and it should work for TF2 as well. It's a bit basic right now but it's definitely a more objective way of determining which maps players like than votes on the forums, and its a bit more focused on figuring out map popularity than gameme is.


  6. Hub

    • Added PGL Krakow 2017 Auras (see here for more information)
    • Added Boston ELeague 2018 Auras (see here for more information)
    • Added Twilight (5000) and Lights (4000) auras

    Donating

    • In addition to donating for a custom chat tag, you can now donate for a custom aura! See here for details.
      • Note: This is an experiment to see how popular this is, and may be removed eventually (auras will be kept if this happens).

  7. It should be on the test server right now if you want to test it.

    Yes, both the store-aura plugin and a test plugin. Use sm_auras or sm_particles to view a menu of the effects available in TF2 (I already narrowed it down a bit to get rid of ones that wouldn't work at all) and select one to test it.

    All I really need is for someone to go through them and figure out which ones you guys want in the store so I can add them to the actual auras plugin (or if someone else wants to they can, I think theres already an example in the store DB).

    The only real problem is that a lot of them tend to be halfway underground, and there's no good way around that. I need to update a couple things in the store plugin before it can be put in all the servers, but the big thing is really just picking out what ones would make good store items.


  8. cs:go could use some love

    Yeah, sorry I haven't been able to be too active, last semester was hectic af and I've still got a lot of other things that need my time. It'd be best if we had a DM or another DL who would be able to spend some more time on the community side of things, i can still keep up on the server side of things for now. I don't really know who would be a good pick since i'm not on discord much, so i guess are there any ideas on who's active at all and is somewhat competent?

    On another note, we have a csgo server that's partially set up to be a sort of pokemon trade rpg dm combo right now, it just needs a bit of work on the configuration side of things. Maps and some handy trade plugins are all already done. I also wonder if it might be a good idea to have some kind of a server thats geared toward more competitive players to try and bring in more people. I'm not sure if 1v1 servers are still super popular, but it could be a way to get a different group of people interested in the clan.

    And I have no idea if the random john cena is still on the forums but having people joining the servers randomly get blasted with that probably isnt helping

     

    Merging with smaller communities. We would provide servers and cover all costs, if they do merge with us (name would still be xG). We would have to figure out how their current staff members would integrate with our current ones.

    I actually had thought about this a while ago for something, but it won't be for at least a while yet. I'll let you guys know when I have a bit more info.

     

    Future divisions.

    More of a community night idea, but it'd be pretty easy to set up a server for Sven coop or Synergy if there's interest. They're both pretty great if you can get a bunch of people together for it.

     

    And I've been meaning to ask, is there anything that needs help plugins-wise on tf2?


  9. The reason this ban happened now is because @virr and I fixed the SourceSleuth plugin that's been on the TF2 servers for quite a while so that it wouldn't spam errors anymore (its a plugin that auto-bans people connecting from an IP that has already been banned by sourcebans). IDK if the TF2 higher ups want this plugin to actually auto-ban or just give a warning to staff, but it was already configured for that so that's what happened when it was fixed. let me or viktor know if you want it changed to warnings only, its real easy


  10. I had some spare time so I made a quick version of the plugin idea mentioned in this thread; just a little warning plugin to make things easier. It's not really complete or anything but it's on the test server if you want to see it.

    Basically, an admin types: /warn lith "Stop it"

    And then the user has to acknowledge it in order for it to disappear.

    Example

    If you guys like it I can work on it a little more, or not if you don't want to use it


  11. it'd be fairly easy to implement something like this using hud text afaik, you could make it as annoying/intrusive as you want, or it could just be in the corner of your screen. I didnt read this whole thread, but it seems like for something like that you could have it stay on the screen until the player acknowledges it by typing some command, just to make sure they read it.

    That being said I have 0 time to actually make that, so someone else would have to do it or it'd have to wait for a long time


  12. It'd also be nice if there was a cleaner or faster way to check people's ban history among other things.

    sm_listbans <name>

    It doesn't show teambans for JB but it should do what you need

    [sourceBans++] Look for xGDLithium's ban results in console.

  13. Now that there's a jailbreak in TF2 as well, it might be a good idea to rename this guide "Jailbreak Rules (CS:GO)" to prevent confusion.

    There's already a tag next to guides specifying what game they're for; adding the name in the title would just be redundant.

     

    Rule suggestions

    1. Do not encourage other players to break the rules.

    ✏ It might be a good idea to add this one to other rule lists where it's missing, such as the general rules guide.

    I changed that to "Do not encourage other players to break the rules or attempt to trick them into doing so" and added it to the General Server and Community rules as well.
