Return to Castle Wolfenstein : Enemy Territory - new [ƒcƒc] clan server

I'm happy to announce, we have a new game + clan server :D

Checkout information about this rather old, but still very fun, objective based Team vs Team WWII FPS game.

Best part is, it's entirely free and just about 250MB for the download
Ill be adding a download mirror to the box' webserver soon, meanwhile you can get the ET 2.60b installer at:

Some mirror:

I spent my day uploading and configuring and setting up and running and testing this server. Now it's up to you and everyone here, to help populate it with people.
So we can attract new players and force ... err.. convince them to join this awesome clan :D

Oh right, the server's IP is 66.90.103.33 port 27960 UDP. Just enter that IP, you won't need the port. (its the games' default)

This server is currently running Jaymod 2.2.0, which adds exp saving and tons of more fun stuffs like poison gas, throwing knives, adrenaline syringes, playing dead, double jumps, oh and an extra level 5 for all classes.

Enjoy playing! :D

WOOHOO ENEMY TERRITORY

that was the first game i ever bought on my new comp. ill reinstall now yay

bought? Enemy Territory always was free.
The good ET, not the crap Quake Wars poc game.

I love this clan so much fucking more. Thanks for doing this. I mean this is my favorite WWII FPS game. Finally, we took action to making a server in there!!!

Expect me playing sometime soon. Maybe not today, but definitely this week or weekend.

two things people were having issues with while running ET:

- make sure you get the correct version. Latest is v2.60b. the b is important. that is 2.60b

- if you're on 64 bit windows, you will have to run the ET.exe in windows XP (or 2000 or even 98) compatibility mode.

Also remember, this is my first setup of ET + jaymod.
That means, the server is currently running, but far from being flawless + configured right.

Report things here please, which don't work or you think i should change.

kkthx.

Something good for widescreen users:

some other forum i found wrote:
For example, if you have FullHD 16:9 monitor:

seta r_mode "-1"
seta r_customwidth "1920"
seta r_customheight "1080"

Quelle: http://www.widescreengamingforum.com/wiki/index.php/Wolfenstein:_Enemy_Territory

You can open console with the tilde ~ key (left of 1).
Then enter the above 3 lines, and use the resolution values your monitor supports.
And finally, enter into console: vid_restart
This will restart the video engine and your game should be in correct 16:9 (or 16:10) format.


Another thing some people run into, is PunkBuster (the cheat/hack protection) failing to create a GUID.
(GUID is your game key, much like a steamid. PB will create one automatically the first time you join a PB protected server.)
So if PunkBuster gives you some error similar to "Failed to load/create your GUID":

Open console and enter: /pb_myguid

Hope this helped, and hope to see many of you on the new server :)

The widescreen thing works, might wanna put it in a text file you rename autoexec.cfg and put it in your game folder if your resolution gets reset on game restart.

I got that GUID error once, now i get some stupid pak file error.

Last time I tried it, Punkbuster kept kicking me for no reason. Updating it didn't work either.
And when I finally got it working, I noticed how terrible old games are online. At least with mobile broadband...

Would have given it a shot if I had proper internets.

@Psycho pak file error?

@Fucia:
Well, most to all online games suck with bad (read: mobile-) internet connection.
Get bettar internets! xD
Or just try and see how it works for you.
(I wouldn't expect it to work too well, since slow internets + connecting to US servers from europe = timeooooouuut .. out ... out .... out.....out... ou.....o... . <- *fading echo*

Gah people need to play on the server!!!

Either that or make bots. But I understand how bots can be a hassle in this game...

Agreed, more people need to play there.
That's why i'm advertising for the server at forums, like here, and ss forum and jaymod forum.

We'll have to give it more time though, people will need time to figure out how to run their game on 64-bit and stuffs.

We maybe can have a clan event at the weekend, and make some more people join then.

About bots. Idk yet, depending on how much work that'll be, i will add bots (or not xD) (also depends on my level of boredom, if im bored enough, i usually start looking into stuffs.)

Indeed.

The other issue I hate about the game is the lagg. It's not the server's fault I know, but when your in the US and the server is in Europe, I mean you get lagged up the ass no matter how god damn awesome your computer is.

ET will always give lagg. Probably only once have I ever played on ET without lagg on a US server.

Well, the new installation lets me start the downloads fro mthe server,but as I was going to sleep I quit the game, and TA-DAH internet connection gone again. That can't be a coincidence...

You're right!
I found something and now im convinced it's

Spoiler:

And yeah, idk what your internets does there. WiFi is crap, that's nothing new.
(Maybe try setting your rates in game to something slower/faster. Options->System, at the very bottom: Networking/Connection.)
(Or go to console and /seta rate 45000 or some other value. Ill look for more rate specific cvars when i have time.)

your dumb cuz i dont run it on compatibility

This server is for low pings only.

your internet always sucked game zombie.
You still getting latencies of >900 ms on other servers?

And yeah, I thought of holding an ET clan event at the weekend.
So this server gets populated more, and people have a chance on actually playing this.

But then i realized i'm probably not even here this weekend.
I'm going to a medieval market (kinda LARP thing), fully dressed up in medieval clothing :DDD

Oh what? I wanna go...

I usually sit around 200 now unless if the weather is horrible

I'm curious as to where you live Game Zombie. I'm imagining a small village somewhere in Siberia!

For you game zombie, i increased the servers' max ping to 250.
I'm curious if this helped and it lets you join now.

(totally ignoring that dork Emo Panda, and his not related to the topic at all reply, although I'd want to do nothing more now than delete and ban.)
(Eh screw it, who cares about that fool.)
