You've never played gmod before have you?
 

Advanced Duplicator, It's a staple mod for any build server, darkrp, or otherwise known game mode that is build intensive, it allows you to copy entire builds and it creates a file for it. It copies every prop/entity that is welded or otherwise attached. (pulley, rope, etc.) it even copies the functions of tools such as doors etc with the proper key input (and keypads/buttons that activate it as well)

I have indeed played Garry’s Mod.... just not as often as I have of TF2 on account of it not working well on my system for quite some time until under a year ago. I had the royalty of watching a blue screen for 10 minutes, then seeing it crash after waiting that long.  

I know of the standard duplicator but haven’t seen/used the Advanced Duplicator.  It does sound like an interesting tool, I’ll have to look into it.

@Chrono What kind of mod would that be to where you can paste something in?

Whatever tastes good

Hello @Neptune_sama 

I was wondering what you all would think if we did a build of the month on Garry’s Mod instead of Minecraft.  This allows for much more dynamic builds that aren’t just a solid blocky statue.

This will also be much easier to host because of Garry’s Mod’s Peer-to-Peer servers, it would be free to host. 

Garry’s Mod will provide you with endless possibilities with its wide range of tools while minecraft limits you to bricks/blocks.

Xeno Gamers Facebook Messenger Automated Response Bot 

Hello,

A few days ago I started implementing automatic responses to the Messenger chat for the Xeno Gamers page.

Here are some of the commands (keywords) you are able to use at this time to get helpful information, links, tips, and answers to frequently asked questions. 

(If you say a sentence and the keywords are inside of it, you will receive an automated response, if that is not what you wanted as a response please leave a message with the words “Non-bot response” and I’ll do my best to answer your question and/or add your question to the automated responses.)

Screenshot of the Month

Build of the Month

{build, build of the month, botm}

Feedback (to be added)

{feedback, review, suggestion}

More to come!  Thread will be updated as new keywords and triggers are added to the bot.   

Please do not spam the bot, you will be blocked permanently from using this feature.

I was wondering what happened to you, welcome back!

Hope things get better for you, glad to know you are okay.

My ID went down about 7,000 - 10,000.

I feel it adds to the experience,  Surfing in general is meant to be a challenge, you got to hit the right part of the ramp or you RS/fail.   I don’t mind it,  yeah it bums you out but it’s not like you won’t be going down the ramp again after you beat it.

Will we receive all the items we purchased on the old site back? Or get refunded because I spent real money on the credits some of those things :(

I don’t know if this is a bug or a feature but editing threads is limited to a small time frame, a bit inconvenient when you have a thread to update over time or notice a mistake later on.

Links will be unavailable until I repost the guides.

Nothing will beat 50 Shades of Oof.

nothing!

Select All text feature on mobile doesn’t work when a link to a thread is active in the textbox.

Hello!

With how quiet it has been on the twitter lately; I have asked to take it over again to give some life to the page.

Due to the prolonged frequent inactivity  bursts the twitter page has had, a lot of the followers have either unfollowed or are just skipping past the posts.

I need your help to get this page seen more,  if you have a Twitter or Facebook and wish to support Xeno Gamers by spreading the word I heavily encourage you to do so by sharing our twitter page and even our Facebook page. Every little bit helps.  Even using our xG Facebook frame is a big help to spread the word of our community.

We have 5,000+ followers on twitter and get very little to no interaction.

On Facebook we have a little over 2,000 page likes/follows and have 110% more interaction.

I am requesting suggestions for the type of content you would like to see on the twitter page.  If you want to shout something out on the twitter page, give me a message and your twitter handle and I’ll post your memes and random “words of wisdom”.  If you have funny or crazy game play clips from the server, send them my way and I’ll post it on the twitter tagging your steam and twitter handle. (I’ll also send it over to Aegean to have uploaded to the xG YouTube if you request it).

Ill be doing my best to make the xG Twitter Great Again (...again?) but I can’t do it all alone.

Thanks,

TheSupremePatriot

Just a note: the title will not be restricted to just the surf server. It will be available for you to use across all of our Team Fortress 2 servers.

@Forest thats adhesive weather strips, I don’t know how that could protect my screen

Thanks for all the suggestions,

I definitely will check them all out!
