FalconGamers.com [Trouble in Terrorist Town, Default, FastDL] ~Recruiting~

[Ins1d3r]

Hello fellow TTT gamers, FG's is a new community recruiting good & fun gamers, you can just play in our server's which would be very appreciated, or you can apply to be an admin. Our plan is to base our community on players suggestions, to make it the way, players want it to be, so everyone can enjoy our servers.

Feel free to join http://FalconGamers.com and leave some suggestions in the forum.

Personally 24 players is a bit to much for me, but I'll check out the server.

[Ins1d3r]

Well thats a suggestion i can lower the player limit, just tell me how much would be good. What ever makes the server better.

[phoenixf129]

20 is probably the max for TT, 16 is the classic limit.

[Ins1d3r]

Any other suggestions?

TT servers are supposed to cater for different groups of people just like RP servers. Do not allow other people to tell you what they want, as it might not be what you want.

Some people like custom content so they go to those servers.

Some people like larger player sizes so they go to those servers.

I run a 26 man server and its always full, if people didnt like it they would not go there. My advice is stick to what YOU want.

Some idiotic people like custom content so they go to those servers.

Some deaf people like larger player sizes so they go to those servers.

I run a 26 man server and its always full of dicks, if people didnt like it they would not go there. My advice is stick to what YOU want your mum to cook you for dinner.

Fix'd

[Ins1d3r]

Okay, but i still get no players.

[phoenixf129]

How old is the server?

[Ins1d3r]

Not much, but i got first players, also people whats better, play CSS maps on TTT or custom TTT maps?

[phoenixf129]

I'd say most people like a mix of TT maps and CSS maps, which reminds me... I've an idea to submit!

[Ins1d3r]

Well what is it? :)

[bigbadboo]

Do this...

Set your default map to clue, this populates the best from scratch than any other map.

Add dm_island17 or any version as the second in your populating chain.

Maintain the population with ttt_lost_temple_v1 and other popular maps.

AVOID MOST CSS MAPS.

Don't listen to anyone but listen to me because I'm right.

Really to start a server you need to either have a userbase (you dont) or a group of friends (~6 or so) to kickstart the server.

[bigbadboo]

He wanted a tactic that works, that is one.

Its what we use to keep the PEZ server always populated, and its doing a good job so far. To be fair though starting a TT server nowadays is like DarkRP hard, too many of them.

[Ins1d3r]

Will try the bigbadboo method and invite some of my friends to play too, also does anyone know why i get a lua; server is misconfigure message every time i connect to the server?

[phoenixf129]

Fix your FastDL.

Upload the cache folder in gmod root onto it. You should know this already :)

If you run the server off the same box as a web server, I can show you how to use symbolic links.

My cache automatically generates for clients on the fast dl. No more mismatch.

[Ins1d3r]

So i need to upload the cache folder, ok, do i have to do this every time i change something in my server? It's just im kinda new to gmod servers, i have been using other server cs,css,tf2 gmod, seems to be more complicated.

Was that the only fix i had to do>?

[bigbadboo]

Every time the lua changes.
