Sweatology!!!!!!!

[Philosophical45]

i'm at a lost.. i never had that problem before nah... please take a read of this thread and see if that helps, http://utforums.epicgames.com/showthread.php?t=593054

[MessiaaH]

i'm glad to see alot more people join in. much appreciated. the sweat last night was boss, the pings were LOW!!!.. with the exception of jedi, we gonna have to fix that.

Phill, that issue was addressed last night. I found out that there was a port foward Jedi needed to do on his router, and then he got the lowest ping ive ever seen, 45-50.

I will update the thread with all these findings soon.

Just a question. How do I get an account with which I can log into UT3 so that I could change my name from anything other than "player"?

Captain u have to make an new name assosicated with an email address. if its tellin  you that, it means you are trying to login, you have to find the option to create your profile.

hey, that shoto guy is a tobago gamer???


is he a gatt member as well? would like to hear from him what tobago gaming is like and if there is anything we could do to help improve it.

[Spazosaurus]

I get that same message when I try to create a new account as well...which is the funny thing. Ill get a screenshot later when I get home.

shoto is philo.....

[MessiaaH]

cap, u tried creatin an account with some ludicrous name? like applecakeisme

maybe the user u are using already exsists

i think it uses gamespy. not sure

[Philosophical45]

yes, i'm shotology, and i'm from tobago.. and i must say, tobago gaming is dull.. well not really eh, but trying to find people in tobago willing to come together and have a sweat (organized) is kinda hard, easier to do when i was in school. the only place that has a great gamer turn out is NetX and Nexxus internet cafe's (mostly school chiren) .. i personally don't have much time to say go around and start up a gaming fold in tobago but, i know there are enough gamers here to try something (i think)... most of my friends that are into gaming either gone off to college or have a job that sucks away their time, like me.. so in the meanwhile i resort to online gaming, and i hope to encourage more and more tobago people to join gatt, and by extension we may form something notable in Tobago.. will have to talk with someone in NetX to see if that is possible, but long time i en see d fella, but as i said, all in due time...

other gatt users from Tobago include, Redfish and Chinarakinda... not sure of others tho..

[ InGame Quote Of The Day:  "Your mother is a DUCK"
From: Shotology101 (philisophical) To: Dredshot   ]

Phill was gunned down twice in a row by dredshot, during a ceise fire, and that was the resultant msg. rofl

[TheApprentice]

@ Captain..

You register your account at the main screen...


And to change your name from "player"

go to player settings in settings...

[Philosophical45]

lol @ quote of the day... yes, his mother was really a duck,  , lol.. i will be out of the games for a little while, have some projects to finish up(will finish by tomorrow night) , then after it should be all go again. i'm still trying to do more digging up to make the connectivity  for the games better, but for now we will work with what we have.. since matthew and his bro magically did the work to make the pings NICE!!!!...

i've installed Quake 4 for testing, will try to aquire the other games suggested for testing also, i'm interested in adding a racing game to the line up, but all in due time. matthew will update the thread with the new games, instructions and players as time goes on. Thanks to all for the support and let us build this simple sweat into something worthy of much praise.

So please contact me if you havent tested yet, or are still having problems. when weekend come we dont want to be fightin up with any of that, juss swetting.

[TriniXaeno]

I think my GOW running stock yes. I'll have to go patch that mofo up.

[MessiaaH]

GOW is going to ROCK, but we will need good voice communication for the teams.

Can xfire support voice where each team has there own voice channel, but yet ppl form eitehr team coudl press a different button for inter-team communication?

i normally use ventrillo to pull this off. if xfire can do it den great, but if it cant, we all can setup our ventrillo.

[TriniXaeno]

xfire supports rooms but I don't know about switching them on the fly at the press of a button.

Hope xfire is sufficient, the less apps I've got to run the better.

[MessiaaH]

yea i hope it is too, but ventrillo is lightweght, and u can assign different buttosn on keyboard/mouse for different channels, like red team, blue team, public. u jus spress a buttom to talk respectively.

[TriniXaeno]

I know, we've had ventrilo servers running in the past. Hosted one myself.

Just a preference to have as little apps going as possible. One less thing to configure, one less thing to go wrong.

[phoenix31tt]

is xfire really necessary...?
arent we all gonna be on msn neways

[MessiaaH]

i know what u mean, ive just got a complain from arcman that d task seems a bit daunting to get the games working.

so i was explaning to him that we are going through d dauting part, but from a user standpoint, setting up and configuring shoudlnt take more than 10 minutes. Since we already going through d pains of fixing what doesnt work, reducing lag, and what not. Ive already made the no-lag patch for hamachi. so im gonna work on makin a file to do all the configurations. so a user would juss run dat and talk done.

is xfire really necessary...?
arent we all gonna be on msn neways

xfire is what everybody here use, and allows u to chat via that program ingame, which we wont realy be using anyways cause we go be using d game's chat interface. and if we using ventrillo for speach, then xfire wont realy be nessasary, if everyone communicating via msn.

everybody coudl say what they prefer.

[.:Jedi:.]

well for one, xfire's "join game" feature is the shizz! that's mainly y we use it. we hardly really chat on it as much as msn. but its so easy when i see arc, captain, shotology, noob all in a game and all i have to do is "right-click --> join game" and sweat on! much less hassle.....

[MessiaaH]

true, i forgot bout that feature, and once we get d lan brwoser working for all d games, wil be able to do that too.
Soulstorm will be fine so far
