DOD:Source

[skeletor]

lol yea.. i haven't seen anything as to what it would be called either. i even browsed through some of steams updated support areas, and they haven't put it there yet.

When you try to down it, then you get a list of what mod's are you can down, snd for now DOD:S is not on that list for HL2 only HL2DM and CS:S, so i geuss DOD:S is not released yet

[RoGuE]

I hope these guys know what they are doing, it's getting a bit close to the bone!

maybe they are having some last minute problems. Hope we dont when getting the servers up...

[skeletor]

they said they were releasing the framework for the servers... or something like that.. i don't know.. sometimes they use tricky wording, and it throws everyone off, but they should of released it. but soo far everyone on the hlds list has been complaining about css servers... no one has said one word about dod:s other then to roll back that update and delay the release of dod.

Just for you info I just tired updating the hldsupdatetool and nothing has changed... Cheers

[Deacon]

Still no update as of 2155 EST. I hope they don't release the DOD:S server on monday. I don't want to spend my day updating 16 servers. Grrr.

Also, nothing on the announce, linux or windows lists.

If anyone has more info please let us know.

yea.. i don't see dod:s happening soon server wise for awhile.. cuz i just heard that even if you try to start the server with srcds in steam, by selecting it in the drop down menu, it says invalid gameinfo.txt file. or something a long them lines.. soo i don't know. and thats all i have heard. and im sure everyone on valve is sitting at home not careing about it right now, cuz its the weekend, lol. don't blame em really, but it would be nice if this all would actually work.

[JoeSoap]

just do one and tar the install since it's just a directory. Then you can copy between your servers rather than download the files again and again

[skeletor]

yea... but we can't even get the files to begin with.. lol. so it doesn't matter right now =)
although that is a good idea once they do come out.. because i have a feeling downloads will be a lil slow due to the fact thousands of people will try and download it all at the same time in the rush to get there servers up and running for all these people getting the game, with no servers to play on...


man i wish i had money to get dod:s.. lol. i hate being a poor college kid =( haha..

[Duke59]

Jep money walks and bullshit talks or is it the other way

[knuckles]

* knuckles walks away with the money

I dont understand why valve would wait till the day of DOD:S unlock to release the dedicated server files.. I mean whats the point of having the clients pre-load if there will be no servers at unlock time.
Right now we are about 15 hrs away from unlock and have no server files..

[Reaver]

Ahhhh around 12 hours from released time (in Australia) and no server files available... Wonder if this will be pushed back?
Surely not!!

[skeletor]

im thinking it will.. i think that last huge update was a mistake for them.. cuz with all the problems that caused, i think it set them behind for the dod:s release. so i would not be surprised if its all pushed back till tomorrow, either that or somethings gonna have some bugs.. hopefully not, but that just seems how its workin so far. but oh well.. people will survive either way, i mean they have waited over a year for it... so why not a couple days more?

[RoGuE]

Tic, Toc, the time draws near! I'm about to finish work (5:15pm here) and we have no DOD:S files for our servers.

OH well guess my clients will have to look else where, we wont have our servers up for launch at 11pm our time.
